/vr/ - Retro Games

The first time I ever learned about the Saturn was in this issue of Gamepro from July 1994.
I was at my cousin's house and he had the issue.
I recall looking at it and just feeling... kinda nothing.
It reminded me of other systems that felt like vaporware to my ten year old brain.
Horrendously expensive and featuring weird FMV games I didn't feel any attraction to.
And games on CD's?
What even IS a "compact disc"?
How would that even work?

I flipped the page and looked for more information about Super Street Fighter II and Super Metroid.

Later of course I became familiar with the system and eventually purchased a used Model 1 with a bunch of games from Funcoland in December 2000.
