>Yeah and the CD32 was the best selling CD based console in 1993 in the UK, but it still didn't matter because it sold like dog shit worldwide. Just like the Saturn. Commodore folded shortly after. Just like Sega.

We were talking about the Japanese Market though, and looking at software sales the Saturn actually did have a healthy market going. Sure it was 2nd place, but it was a solid 2nd place. It only really dies off abruptly due to Sega rushing out the Dreamcast due to Sega of America completely failing to sell the Saturn. According to Famitsu chart data the Saturn software sales per year were as follows:

1994: 396,667
1995: 10,155,416
1996: 11,409,935
1997: 8,042,930
1998: 5,002,771

That's not bad at all and was actually on par with the PS1 for the first few years until FF7 came out. N64's best year in Japan on the other hand only saw about 7 Million games sold. Going off of just the Famitsu chart data Saturn sold about 35 Million games, N64 sold about 24 Million.
