For the past few months I've been really interested in a saturn

Worse version of n54

saturn is a great system with a lot of solid titles
get panzer dragoon
>>321451251
>I only owned a n64 when i was a retarded kid but ill shitpost anyway
Apart from Zelda, name one good rpg on n64.
Saturn has a ton.
>>321451039
The best games are either arcade ports that MAME can run perfectly now, or original titles that will cost you an arm and a leg to find.
Just get a Dreamcast and burn all the games you want onto CDs.
The Saturn is getting expensive as fuck to collect for these days. You could always turn to imports, but those are also on the rise and have the whole language barrier to deal with as well.
>>321451039
just get an emulator retard

Legend of the Mystical Ninja.PLASMA!
>>321451461
There were only like ten RPGs on N64. It did have Paper Mario and Ogre Battle, though. Also Zelda is not an RPG.

Never understood the appeal of Nights. You fly about and go through rings, thats literally it, its like superman 64 with better atmosphere.
>>321452120
Action Replay won't play burned discs. You need to either install a mod chip or do the swap trick.
>>321452473
I don't like Dragon Force that much
my favorite Saturn game isShining the Holy Ark
>>321452473
>no Doom, Quake, or Duke 3D
Shit list.
>>321452892
my nigga, although I did enjoy dragon force too.
But yeah I probably played Holy Ark more than any other.
>>321452473
>No Sakura Taisen
Whatever, I still liked that shit.
>>321452904
Duke 3d is right there in the top corner.
>>321452232
I don't know anon I'm just really interested in it for some reason
maybe because I never had it
Will Cotton 2 convince you to buy one?
>>321453375
is that the game where the mc was voiced by a pornstar?
>>321453967
No that was Magical Pop'n on the SNES. Great game.
>>321452860
whats the difference between the chip and swap trick? is the swap trick worse?
>>321454774
A mod chip works 100% of the time. The swap trick has a much lower success rate and has the potential to damage your system.
>>321455006
and i assume mod chips are expensive?
>>321451039
The trigger has the poopy on it.
>>321456463
>>321455006
actually i cant even find where to buy one holy shit google
>>321452787
>>321452473
>Shinobi X
So many mixed opinions on that game but goddamn Richard Jacques is great.

>>321452473
fuck yeah bulk slash i love that game it's jap only but completely self explanatory
>>321452904
i dunno if those are worth playing on saturn but powerslave/exhumed is most definitely worth checking out
>>321452473
>virtual on not on the top five
they had ONE FUCKING JOB
>>321452860
wrong

saturn is cute! CUTE!
>>321457890
I flashed an AR a few days ago (ordered one from Amazon because I didn't want to overwrite the one I already owned), worked great after mastering the swap trick (took a few tries)
>>321457645
Your Saturn will need to be modded for disc swap or have a mod chip to do this exploit.
>>321451293
That was hard to find even when Saturn was popular.
I want to say it had a lot of great games but I can't remember so well. I unironically loved my saturn. I had a ton of games for it. Loved VF2, Virtua Cop 2, Dayton USA... Shining Hearts... Nights, Fighters Megamix, Clockwork Knight 2...
Good stuff... Good times. I kinda want to get it again just to say I have it.
Best controller for fighting games.
Do you know Japanese?
If not, don't bother buying it.
>>321458241
good thing im learning
Saturn is only worth it if you can deal with playing Japanese games.
For me, it was very much worth it. Weebed out with it and never looked back.
If you have a spare Action Replay cart you can download PseudoSaturn onto it and you can play burned games.
The Saturn is a great system with a lot of gems but it is expensive and the prices are only getting higher.
DO IT FAGGOT
PANZER DRAGOOOOOOOOON

Is the dreamcast any good?
Been kinda interested in it, but it's also obviously the lesser console from its time (assuming it's paired with the PS2, Xbox and GC)
>>321451039
I got it recently
It aged really bad
The good games can be emulated easily on pc
The internal battery is probably dead and it cannot save anymore
Most of the good games are really expensive
Controllers are fragile as fuck and may be broken or not fully functioning
But hey, it had a fucking amazing upscaler, it's the ONLY retro console that I've ever seen that looks crispy and sharp on lcd tvs
>>321452892
I played Holy Ark so much when I was a kid. Then I found some fansite and got banned for being a dumbass, good times.
>>321457662
Saturn pls go
>>321458765
>It aged really bad
epic
>The good games can be emulated easily on pc
lmao
>The internal battery is probably dead and it cannot save anymore
You don't even need to open the console to replace the battery moron
>Most of the good games are really expensive
Pseudo Saturn
>Controllers are fragile as fuck and may be broken or not fully functioning
lmao
>>321458765
>The good games can be emulated easily on pc
This is true. Even Shining Force 3 can be played in its entirety in English with a patch, though the sound was a little weird last time I tried.
>>321458765
>The internal battery is probably dead and it cannot save anymore
Those batteries are easily replaceable. There is a little door on the back of the console you can remove and replace it with a CR2032 which are a couple bucks a piece.
>>321451039
>install sega cd emulator
>complete snatcher
>uninstall the emulator
thats how you do it
>>321459567
You do know the Saturn and the Sega CD are two separate consoles, right dude? You should also know there's better games than Snatcher on the CD.
>>321459685
u sure? isnt sega cd like a piece of hardware you connect to your sega saturn?
and if there are more worthy games, im listening
>>321458752
It's great if you like arcade style games. Everything I played on it was fun.
>>321459881
the saturn already reads cds man, I think you're thinking of the wrong console
>>321458752
>never playing 4 player Power Stone 2.
I pity you.
>>321459881
Why would a console with a CD drive need a CD attachment? The CD plugs into the Mega Drive.
Some random sweet ass games off the top of my head are: Popful Mail, Android Assault, the Lunar games, and Shining Force CD.
I just purchased the Action Replay memory card combo. Finally can expand my Saturn's library more.
