Why is this game so unknown? it's like the FFVII,OoT for the Saturn...
>>
>>321220365
I really liked it, most people probably never played it because they never owned a Saturn and now it's super expensive
>>
>>321220365

Because like 5 copies were printed of it.
>>
>>321221220
kek
>>
Because it had a small print and Sega fucking lost the source code.
>>
At least you can emulate it.
Also Saturn is easy to pirate on.

Because Sonic aside, it really seems like most Sega fans have given up and moved on. Which I suppose is for the best looking at how Nintendo fags treat their company like the second coming
>>
>>321222140

>mfw I own three copies
>>
Because Saturn is a patrician system and 99% of online video game fans are fullblown casuals

>>321222397

yeah and I own a unicorn and godzilla's my dad
>>
is saturn emulation still a shit show? i haven't bothered to check for a few years.
>>
>>321220365
Is there a good Saturn emulator to play this game?
>>
>>321223061
ssf is your best bet
>>
>>321223061
Saturn emulation is at a worse point than even n64 emulation, so I seriously doubt anything other than Panzer Dragoon 1 is going to work decently.
>>
>>321220365
I know it as "that game that's really rare and expensive"
>>
>>321221832
>At least you can emulate it.

Go on...
>>
>>321223061
>>321223402

SSF could play it perfectly ten years ago. Most Saturn games can be emulated very well, but ignorant people outweight those who know this and the misinformation continues.
>>
This deserves a remake more than final fantasy
>>
Oh yes, if you decide to emulate this also try Shining the Holy Ark. Those two games are the best RPGs on the system and STHA runs better on emulators than a real Saturn. Dragon Force is good too.
>>
>>321223402

I got shining force 3 to play fairly well
>>
>>321221832
Not anymore, most modchip suppliers no longer supply modchips. Emulation is shit and will always be shit.

You could do the swap trick, but you'd need to keep around many spare laser assemblies if that's your primary method to play games.

What do people think of PDS these days, if they do at all? The price tag is still as crazy as it was long ago.

My copy survived a fire this year, but my Saturn did not. It had a region switch and everything, damn.
>>
>>
>>
I was able to buy a modchip this year from Sega Style before they cleared their stock. Currently playing Panzer Dragoon 1 and Guardian Heroes. Should I drop those and go straight for Saga?
>>
>>
>>321220365
People tend to exaggerate the quality of this game because it's so rare. I played it and it's nowhere near the same quality of those two games. And FFVII isn't nearly the same fucking quality as OOT.

Also PDS was the first game with memes I can think of.
>>
>>321226158
Play the Panzer games in order or you'll miss a lot of significance in Saga.
>>
Anyone here from Portugal?
>>
>>321226503
>FF7
>OoT

They don't even feature dragons fucking shit up in Moebius inspired desert landscapes, it's impossible for them to be quality.

i have it since 98 but never bothered to play all the way through it, i feel pretty bad about it

Yep pretty much this.

I got a demo of the first disc with a magazine, thought "hey this is pretty great" and no shops stocked it.

Arzak Rhapsody was so fucking dull

Panzer Dragon was LEAGUES better on its own.

>>321227198
You never know what will be found in long forgotten storage rooms. Honestly they just aren't looking.

I have a feeling that if they really, really tried to search all their property they'd find it. Surely there are companies who can do something like that, it would be the most amazing thing.
>>
95% sure i have a copy laying around my house. Is it worth anything?
>>
>>321228315
Up to $1000 if its new
>>
>>321228315
Around $150 to $300 US monies. Depends on how mint it is. Unopened you could probably get more, but the market is pretty small and demand hasn't grown over the year.
>>
>>321220365
Phantasy Star 4 is a better RPG. The story, characters (or lack thereof), and dungeon designs were shit in PDS. Also having to move around constantly into the safe/green zone in battles got old fast.

As for Saturn's magnum opus, that would have to be Shining Force III Pts 1-3.

That's the first game, my friend. We're talking about Panzer Dragoon Saga, a four disc RPG.
>>
>>321223859
>>SSF could play it perfectly ten years ago.

Eh, Georgius has that huge texture/sprite rotation glitch and shadows aren't properly rendered. Other than that it's alright. I really wish SSF had some setup like PPSSPP did.
>>
>>321229831
Well I am an idiot. I will leave and repent for my mistakes.
>>
Only the english version is rare. If you can read moonrunes you can get the cheapo jap version.
>>
>>321229514
It's good in that they took features from Saga, like morphing the dragon for different stats and battle positioning, and made it real time. It's not mindblowing but it's a really wonderful game and a direct continuation of some of the things laid out in Saga.
>>
>>321229578
I think they should bother because this game sells for $1000 unopened in the States, that's some serious prestige right there.
>>
>>321220365
I own that game, it's the PAL version. Damm sure this was the last game I bought for saturn, then the console died out in support was 6 years old. Also loved the demo of the second panzer where he is running in the jungle but never found the game for sale

We need an guardian angel or two to resolve some of these problems going forward. Surely someone out there can make it happen.
>>
>>321220365
The game is unknown because it costs $500 and people think Saturn emulation sucks

wtf is saturn nigga

Is it not? You mean we can run this game and the second panzer legit good? Where can I find the setup for those games in said emulator?

Bluepoint games claim they reverse engineer PS2 retail discs for their remakes of Shadow of the Colossus and MGS2/3. Why can't anyone do this? Why can't Sega at least make an official saturn emulator?

Won't move money for them. My last hope was some kind of release for smartphones or tablets at the very least

This game has a great soundtrack...
>>
>>321234995
All these things are possible, it's a matter of finding the right people and having the confidence to do so.

I wonder if making it exclusive to PSN or Live would get it rereleased.

I could never figure out how to get emulation working for saturn. It doesn't really matter anyways since I actually own dragoon saga, but just never had any motivation to play it. This thread is making me seriously think about starting it up though

One thing I really liked about PDS was that every NPC had a voice. Granted there were few NPCs to begin with and most reused VA's but still.
>>
>>321234872
Why would they even do that? The original game was a low poly mess. Typical from the console.

Might as well remake the game.
>>
>>321238150
I don't understand it either, yet here we are talking about the only thing I ever losed this way.
It was in the box, then it never was again.
Luckily I already finished it before.
>>
>>321238513
Another one thing was that it had a South Park meme in it.
>>
>>321220365
I owned a copy of this game and traded it in about a year after I got it. If only I'd known.

it's gone, mate

name a sega game from the 90's you want to see a remake of. If it hasn't already happened the source code is probably long since gone.
>>
I dont get it, how can Sega loose the source code? It has to be in their building somewhere.
>>
>>321240058
Shit happens.

It's nothing special plenty of Japanese companies didn't believe in keeping their source codes back then.
>>
>>321240058
It does seem impossible to lose something like that. I don't believe all this defeatist talk you always hear about Sega, a lot of it is untrue like Saturn emulation not working. It's unhealthy and re-enforces a weak character onto the company.
