Sega Saturn Thread

Thats a good question, if you look at japanese released games instead of american they are cheaper. Xmen vs street fighter is a good example if you was interested in getting one of those carts.

From what i learned from owning a saturn in our area is that games are only found by certain dealers and its a hit and miss with those. 2 dudes are the only ones i know i see saturn games come in here and there. Surprisingly online you can find pretty good almost complete games for decent prices.

If you get your hands on some daytona or sega ralley which are really cheap look up the saturn wheel, i hear they are fun to use and they arnt expensive at all.

I agree with Dreamcastie , NiGHTS is a MUST for Saturn, but I don't know that you're going to find it on the cheap.

Battle Arena Toshinden Remix is a GREAT fighting game, I highly highly recommend it.  There is a dude named Ten Count that is pretty much Michael Jackson made over, haha, and he's actually a decent fighter.  They're all good fighters.  Love that game.

There is a neat little game called Astal that I think you and your daughter would love to play, Brandon .  It's adorable but challenging enough to keep you interested in pressing forward.  The backgrounds on the game are simply beautiful.

I've never played Clockwork Knight, I hear it's good.  I have played Clockwork Knight 2, and it's really fun!  If I can think of any others, I'll be sure to post back.  

As long as your lithium ion battery is holding up, I think you should be okay as far as the brick of a memory card, but it might be something you want to consider on down the road.  One of the other long-time Sega Saturn players might be able to speak to that better than I can, I haven't played mine in ages, but I've always had it in the back of my mind to get that, myself.  I need to make a permanent place to set mine up, I miss playing Saturn.  It's a great system, I think you'll really love it.  Enjoy!!

I have never personally had any problems *so far* with Action Replay or Mad Katz third party products. There are purists who will tell you to get nothing but the OEM stuff, and that's fine, but I've had OEM stuff like adapters and memory cards actually fail on me just the same. I did buy a store brand AC adapter for my 3DS, and that thing fell apart in about 2 weeks, so in my opinion, it's a risk either way. I'll gladly stand corrected if someone else has a third party accessory horror story!

Dude i actually found a copy of sega rally complete in the back of my car lol. If your interested $10?

Is the Saturn 3-D Pad any good? Not really interested in getting one at the moment since I don't own NiGHTs yet but can you use it on any game? Would you want to? Lol, might seem like a silly question but I'm not very knowledgeable about the Saturn.

That's some good information on the AR RAM cart, I had no idea, Fist. I'll definitely have to keep that in mind.

I think I have 2-3 demos of NiGHTS, Brandon, I'll have to go through my stash and give you one if you don't grab a copy before then.

That's actually not a bad deal at all, although I know I prefer the bigger case. You might want to consider it or catch it in a lot of games where it might be cheaper (per game).
