The saturn is a poor men's Playstation

At least the n64 is it's own thing

>The saturn is a poor men's Playstation
Substantiate your claims.

Do we need 15 Saturn threads at all times? You lost

>>10042015
Better than another OoT or another FFVIII thread

>>10042006
sega shiturn got what it deserved

>>10042006
Yes, larp and cope more, the segatard tears are delicious.

>>10042006
Buy the Retro-Bit Saturn controller OP, it's the best way to enjoy them.

>>10042006
Agreed, I've been seeing people say classics like NiGHTS and Burning Rangers sucked but when I played those games, they were quite fun.

>>10042006
These Saturn hate threads are how I know this board is majority tide pod eating zoom zooms born well after the Saturn was discontinued. Why do you broccoli heads shit up a board talking about video games released before you were born? Isn't /v/ a better fit?

>>10042141
I didn't care for Burning Rangers but I do like NiGHTS. The first party lineup in general is pretty solid, as well as anything by Capcom

>>10042147
I don't this is a Saturn hate thread, though

>>10042147
>NOOOOOOOO DON'T MAKE RETRO THREADS ON THE RETRO BOARD YOU'RE MAKING ME MAD!!!!

>>10042027
Are you here 24/7?

>make fancy 2D console

>Americans can only buy Night Warriors and Mega Man 8

>>10042280
>2D console
No, that was the Genesis. We also got a lot more 2D games than those two, but that doesn't matter anyway, because it's not a 2D console.

>>10042309
Shakey ass game full of 2D objects.

>>10042006
I'm bored OP. What Saturn games do you like? Maybe I can give them a shot if it's something I haven't played yet

>>10042865
I am just playing the classics so if you're looking for more obscure stuff, I can't help with that yet

>>10043204
Which ones? Sonic R? NiGHTS? Daytona? Virtua Fighter 2?

>>10043210
Virtua Fighter 2, Last Bronx, Sega Rally, Panzer Dragoon, Die Hard Arcade, Guardian Heroes, Bomberman...

>>10043218
Die Hard Arcade is really good. I wasn't sure what to expect going in but it turned out to be a fun goofy brawler. Guardian Heroes is really fun too. Good taste OP.

>>10042020
>Better than another OoT or another FFVIII thread

Amen.

>>10042202
Don't make console war threads as if you're a brainless 13 year old that can only pick 1 (one!) console to get on his birthday and then tries justify his choice with brand affiliation. You're an adult with easy access to either option.

Yesterday I played thru elevator action returns again

>Don't make console war threads
Are you so mentally ill that a thread praising an underrated console, with zero (0) allusions to the competition, is a console war thread to you? get your fucking meds and if possible, get out of here too.

Segata Sanshiro >>>>> Sonic

The Saturn was more expensive than the Playstation

>>10043964
Myth. Saturn price matched PS1 when PS1 launched. Saturn was in the bargain bin as soon as the N64 launched. Saturn did not exist when DC launched lmao

>>10043790
Is the Segata Sanshiro game good? I've never played it before, only know about the commercials

>>10044181
It's just FMV Warioware

Virtua Cop? There is a superior PC version. Sega Rally? There is a superior PC version that works flawlessly on win10. Same with Daytona.

That's my main problem with Sega Saturn.

I recently tried to play Panzer Dragoon Saga and the graphics were horrid.

>>10044343
I feel like that can be said for a lot of consoles even today though. There's almost always a PC version that is just better because it's on PC

>>10042006
just got my psuedo saturn kai cartridge for the saturn today and have been playing burnt games. feel like a million bucks

>>10044343
>There is a superior PC version that works flawlessly on win10
Never played it but a lot of people said it was a mediocre port. IIRC it's a straight port from Saturn.
From wiki:
>The Windows version was less well received. Critics generally commented that the fun gameplay is still wholly intact, but that the conversion lacks many features standard to PC racing games[21][29][32] and suffers from mediocre frame rates except when playing in low-resolution mode, in which case it instead suffers from having lower detail and more pixelation than the Saturn version.

This feels like an ad but I think you got me

Like OP here, I got into Saturn recently. I'm enjoying it so far, but fuck paying the kinds of prices that the games are going for. So I picked up a burner and a spindle of blank discs. Does anyone have any tips for getting a good burn? It's been hit and miss for me so far. Some games work fine, others don't. I wasted 3 discs on the english patched Symphony of the Night, to no avail. Yet the english-patched Bulk Slash works fine as far as I've played. I've had no issues with any of the 2d fighters I've burned so far, but Burning Rangers and Road Rash freeze randomly during load screens and cutscenes, and in Road Rash the music cuts out randomly during menu screens. Metal Slug is plagued with almost constant slowdown, but that may just be normal for that version of the game. I'm using Verbatim CD-Rs and writing the discs at 1x speed, if that matters.
Sorry to hijack your thread OP, but I figured the board didn't need a 5th Saturn thread. Looks like you're already playing most of the games that I would recommend checking out with the limited time I've put into the console, but Bulk Slash is another one I'd recommend trying. I'm playing on actual hardware, so I'm finding it interesting to play the Saturn versions of games I grew up playing on PS1 as a kid, but since you're emulating, you probably may as well just stick to the PS1 versions of those games in most cases.
