Game Overview

BS Koubo Kenshou Magazine is one of those weird, wonderful SNES games that makes you feel like you’ve dug up a lost artifact. It was originally broadcast via Japan’s Satellaview—basically a '90s experiment in mixing TV, radio, and gaming—so it’s got this bizarre magazine format with quizzes, mini-games, and random interactive bits. The whole thing oozes that distinctly Japanese, slightly surreal vibe from the era.

It’s not about high scores or epic adventures—more like flipping through a time capsule where someone scribbled jokes and doodles in the margins. Some bits might leave you scratching your head (especially if you don’t read Japanese), but that’s part of the charm. Definitely for collectors and retro weirdos, not casual players. The SNES had stranger things, but not many.
