Newly created revival(s)

Latest comment: 2 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Two revivals were made for the servers of Super Mario Club recently, one more active than the other. I feel like this is pretty noteworthy.

Earlier reference to "Network System"?

Latest comment: 23 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Today I came across this early FDS brochure. It's from late 1985 (dated 851120). The back page has a mascot character saying "Next time, we'll explain about the Network System, stay tuned!" (my translation) - that's ネットワークシステム. But this article talks as if the idea only dates to 1987 or so. Does anyone know if this was some sort of earlier concept, and what became of it?
