Sega Saturn = PS1 > N64
Those who know, know, those who don't: go.

Jamie, pull up the early life on the Sega CEO, we need to see if this Saturn cult stuff is for real...

Sega Saturn

sega codenamed all their consoles during that era after planets schizo

Sega: Head for Saturn
Sony: If you still want a Saturn, your head is in your anus.

Image related poster was included with various gaming magazines pre-launch. It was around the same time Sega had the 'Head for Saturn' campaign.

American marketing is so embarrassing

>American marketing is so embarrassing

It's was the mid 90's and completely acceptable for the time. I do think Sony had no idea what they were doing off the bat, and decided to take a page out of Sega's old marketing and just take jabs at their nearest competitor.

Sega of America attacking Sony with NiGHTS:

Here they are attacking Nintendo's N64 for having no games. Which was true. The N64 had a very fickle launch line up for the NA market.

I know, but it was mostly a burger thing and it's still embarrassing.

Yes

was that Paul Harrell in that last vid? holy shit

>>10898467
sovl

>>10897542
The fact that you're here knowingly exposing yourself to it is more embarrassing.

I have no idea. It's possible, knowing Sega. But I do know that the voice for both advertisements was Phil LaMarr. I do love the 'Nintendo has no games' commercial for what it is, and it was actually true for the time. The N64 had a very slow start and game releases were few and far between. Though I feel like Sega's NiGHTS commercial was really misguided. It doesn't say a thing about the game, and just hypes that the Saturn has two processors and therefore; can only produce a game like NiGHTS. It's a farcry from Sega's old and highly calculated Sonic the Hedgehog commercials.

>soulful Saturn thread gets quickly derailed into console wars
classic nu-/vr/

>>10900740
It caught your attention and got a reaction out of you. That's literally all advertising needs to do and it worked, all these years later, on your fat ass.

>>10902095
It’s been like this forever fucking Zoomer

>>10902123
I'm not a burger though. I learned about all the whole "companies attacking each other" american marketing thanks to the internet much later.

>>10895415
For me it's PS1 > Saturn >> N64.
I still like N64 but I only found like maybe 10 games that I was interested in.

>>10902095
Maybe OP should've posted some actual gifs/webms this time

You can't a e s t h e t i c without the aesthetic

>>10902627
Nah it only happened after Saturn had a major surge in interest in the last 5+ years. Saturn had a good retro reputation in the 2000s

>>10895415
i don't think it's even fair to compare the 3 that much. they are very different vibes aside from multiplats

>>10904391
>not wanting to pertake in console wars
fuck off boomer

>>10904410
>reeeee
i enjoy the 3 of them, keep malding

>>10904410
>pertake
Perchance?

>>10904451
peruse?

>>10895401
Look OP, this is how you make a proper cozy vibes/a e s t h e t i c thread >>10903106 >>/vr/thread/10801936

Gotta start with at least a few gifs/webm's to get the ball rolling so people know what to post

>>10902796
>>10904474
So you're the faggot spamming shitty sonic gifs on the only decent /vr/ thread huh? Figures, segatards being mentally ill and all that.

>>10904505
>you're this guy I'm thinking of because of pictures
Meds.

>>10904505
I did post the Sonic Jam one, not the Adventure one though

>>10895401
Dumb marketing campaign

>>10895435
i too use twitter

She reminds me of that weird head in some sega game avgn reviewed.
>where did you learn to fly?

Panzer Dragoon..... Nights..... The list goes on.

This is the highest rated Saturn game with at least 100 votes on gamefaqs.

>>10907365
didn't they release x4 too?

>>10908251
they did. x4 is ranked just under x3 on that list. i guess gamefaqs users have a mega man bias.

>>10895401
Dreamcucks had no chance

>>10905649
>some sega game
Cybermorph is an Atari Jaguar game

>>10910895
And?

>>10895401
It was good console. Had a bunch of stuff for it but a lot of it was retro other than the racers and a few of res evil type games

I think it's good compared to n64

N64>saturn>ps1

>>10912372
Don't hurt yourself thinking about it.

>>10914049
>N64>saturn>ps1
Stop trolling. We all know Saturn is on the bottom.

1. PS1
2. N64

(huge gap)

3. Saturn

(massive gap)

4. Jaguar

Every Mega Man fan of a certain age has posted on the gamefaqs forums at least five times

/vr/ used to be embarrassingly retarded back then

I bought a Sega Saturn HST-3210, did I make a mistake and not get a 3200? Honestly I thought the circular venting on the right side was ugly so I opt to get the 3210 instead but I heard they use almost the same motherboard as the model 2 so I wonder if the image quality will be bad as the model 2
I’ll wait until I can get more games for it
The Saturn I bought is bundled with six games and one of them is Puyo Puyo sun and I also bought Daytona USA and Vampire Savior
Im planning on buying MSH vs SF next
With a Virtua Arcade Stick
