The Gaming Historian is a documentary series all about the history of video games. The show is researched, written, edited, and created by Norman Caruso. I recently announced I'm no longer working on the channel full-time (check the community tab for my announcement). I'll still be making videos in my spare time. Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss a new episode! Sources for my videos are available on my website, gaminghistorian.com
Video Description
In 1989, Sunsoft came to SEGA with a proposal: What if people could play Mega Drive games online? Wanting to make a splash in the market, the two companies teamed up and created the Mega Modem. The device brought online gaming, downloadable games, news, contests, and even financial transactions to the SEGA Mega Drive.
