Status: Partially Lost

Stargame was a Brazilian gaming TV show that has produced by independent studio No Ar Comunicações, being the very first more complete magazine-alike gaming TV show in Brazil, with informations like releases, game news, cheats, walkthroughs and more.

The show had 235 episodes[1] and aired in cable TV channel Multishow between 1995 and 2000, but in its early years, was also aired on satellite TV via the provider Globosat.

Even though gaming TV shows in Brazil already exists before, Stargame was the first Brazilian gaming TV show with a more longer run than the other shows before. Between the 5 years and half run, the idea of the show is to translate gaming magazine of the time's language and information into an full TV program, being hosted by now-theater-stage-actor Cristiano Gualda, in which originally he was going to be the show's field reporter, but after an suggestion by the director, he became the host.[2]

The show was important to be the very first Brazilian gaming TV show to ever cover the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).

For an only 25-minute Brazilian gaming TV show, Stargame was very diverse, charismatic and with a dose of humor in the right measure, characteristics that made the program have it's mark on the history of games in Brazil.

Availability

Thankfully, there's an old project called "DigiStarGame" started probably by now-live-streamer Alanzin on his YouTube channel digistargame (now Jogatina no Tubo), which archived many episodes of Stargame, recorded on VHS. Unfortunately, the project only posted 207 of the 235 episodes, in which somewhat majority being incomplete. More episodes was not released by this project, but still planned. But, again thankfully, other channels on YouTube make some episodes available, also from their VHS recordings.
