I have downloaded a Satellaview SNES (you know the Japanese download game thing for the SNES) rom and tried to play it. It started fine, no glitches of any sort, then every button I pressed didn't register, I reset my controls and tried different controllers but no such luck. I have also obtained a BIOS image for it and have showed Zsnes where the file is. The game I'm referring to is Excitebike: Bun Bun Mario Battle Stadium. I have all 4 versions, but have only tried the fourth, can someone please help me, I really want to play this game :mad2:. And if there is another thread with info on emulating the Satellaview can some one please point me towards it? I couldn't find any.

I think U need to start the first file first.
These games were broadcasted through Satellite, hence the name. The games got separated into several chapters, each chapter being broadcasted one hour per week, till all chapters ere broadcasted.
Chapter 2 continues where chapter 1 stopped, if U have the save file.
A good example R the BS Zelda games:
BS Legend of Zelda - Map 1.
BS Legend of Zelda - Map 1 - Link Version.
BS Legend of Zelda - Map 1 - Third Quest.
BS Legend of Zelda - Map 2.
BS Legend of Zelda - Map 2 - Link Version.
BS Legend of Zelda - Map 2 - Fourth Quest.
BS Legend of Zelda - Ancient Stone Tablets.

But then again, they've done an awful lot of hacking and such to fix those Zelda games, just because things got lost, and the 59 minute timer didn't help much either. It could be possible this one needs a fix as well, but I remember having played this in the past so it shouldn't. :)

Ah, well I will continue to try to get it to work. If I have any such luck, I will say so.

if you're still having problems, could i recommend that you check out the wide variety of emulators lord valarion and i have made available in the Emulators section?
perhaps one of those could help a bit? I looked at some of those and I will give them a try, if I can't get it to work.
