Any have a link to footage of the internet running on a Game.Com?

This is something I've been curious about for years. Youtube has a fair amount of video reviews but I can't find anything featuring the console's, albeit limited, internet capabilities specifically.

It was pretty limited. The internet cartridge was pretty much just a VT100 terminal and a serial cable to connect a modem. You'd need a shell account (or something text-based) where you could just use a browser like Lynx running on the server. It wasn't actually an HTML browser or TCP/IP stack, but misplaced expectations were par for the course with the Game.com.

I remember trying this in a store demo kiosk years ago.

Think of those "e-book readers" from circa 1999.

Pretty much that, but worse.

it was much like "mobile internet" on a cell phone that wasn't a smart phone with less pictures.

I have both the game com and the modem and cart to get on the internet, problem is I don't have an ISP to dial up to or a phone line to plug into

You don't need an ISP. Just use Nocharge.com's supplied phone numbers. But without a phone line jack it won't work of course.

Wonder if you could use SegaNet on a game.com back in the day...:-D
