[TurboDuo]

No, it was a service that allowed you to download full games on your Genesis through a cable connection.

Back when I use to live in Northern Virginia Media General Cable was going to sampler Sega Channel on Sampler Channel but they never did.

I never had any SEGA products growing up... and I never heard of the SEGA channel back then either. But if I had I definitely would have wanted both though. (Although the original controller only had three regular buttons... not very smart.) Only one save though at any one time sucks though. Unless they only had one RPG per month, that would really suck. But better than nothing I guess. I wonder how popular the RPGs were back then since if you could not save you could not progress mostly.

@Jerrid3 You could only have one save game of any game at a time as they were stored server-side. Basically, if you started a game of Shining Force and saved but then started a game of Phantasy Star II, that save would overwrite your Shining Force save data.

Speaking of Shining Force, there was even a month where the staff uploaded a power-leveled save game to Shining Force II for every subscriber to play. It was pretty awesome.

So could you save games on it? I mean I know a lot of games back then had no saves or were password held, but some did save. How many could you save?
