Saturday Video Entertainment System (also known as SVES as deemed by fans of the block) was launched by Cartoon Network in March, 2003. SVES was a new action-animation franchise that featured Toonami programming and other animated action shows that didn't "fit" on Toonami or Adult Swim. SVES marked Cartoon Network's first prime-time lineup completely devoted to action, featuring shows such as: Zoids: New Century, .hack//SIGN, G.I. Joe, Dragon Ball, Pokemon, etc.
