The XBAND version of Saturn Bomberman (サターンボンバーマン) is a special version of the Sega Saturn game Saturn Bomberman, designed to use of the Sega Saturn Modem.

Gameplay

While the core gameplay remains identical to the standard Saturn Bomberman, this XBAND iteration removes the "Normal Game" mode, and limits the "Battle Game" mode to online play, in which 1-4 players can compete. If a modem isn't detected a simplified "Master Game" boots, titled Niko Bon Pick '96 (にこボンピック'96); a one-player, single level challenge where the game gives you a rating (out of nine) if completed.

The online portion is thought to have been re-incorporated into the standard Saturn Bomberman for its North American release.
