oh i got that for cheap, its really fun

>>8337135
it's really addictive :)
how much did you pay for your copy? I got it in a stack of games that I bought off a friend for pretty cheap

>>8337126
Stellar Assault is pretty fun.

I just bought a Saturn with a bunch of games so I'll be monitoring this thread. People say the prices are bad but that seems like it's mainly a problem with the shoot 'em ups, especially the Treasure games

I really want a copy of pu li ru la, its probably one of the most expensive beat em ups on the saturn

My Chinese cart somehow decided to stop being a RAM cartridge.

I'm wondering if Pseudo Saturn Kai did it or it just stopped working right.

I think I need a new one.

clean and reinsert it into the console. the saturn cart slot sucks

>>8337126
>so many saturn games im interested in
>they need moonrune to play

>I got it in a stack of games

same it was in some sleve games without cases. little over 300 bucks but it had samurai showdown games and like 56 other ones

try to wedge a bit of cardboard in the back and also only insert it 3/4 of the way in

nice, that's a good get

You can do it anon. It's worth learning for retro games alone, it opens up an entire new world of games for you.

it takes about 5 years to even remotely understand japanese and about 14 years to lean how to read it

WTF is this?

wtf its real?

>>8337483
If a dumb dropout like me can do it then so can you
Retro doesn't go bad, in 5 years you'll wish you started now

I work 10 hours a day and have two kids

I had no idea that the Saturn had an EA title. It's probably one of my favorite NES games, so I'm curious of what the Saturn version is like now.

Can agree, that solved my erectile dysfunction like a charm.

My favourite retro console. Really been meaning to play EAR, thanks for reminding me

I'll be honest I don't know what I really like on the platform.

I've been trying to explore it now that I have an ODE but I feel like the Saturn never excelled in any one genre.

My family used to be big SEGAfags and we would call every console a SEGA.

Yeah, these ideas didn't work.

The cart actually does get detected (I can load PSK Lite and also use it as a storage cart), it just won't perform its 4M functions.

My unaltered Action Replay 4M Plus cart I use my US Saturn works in my Japanese ODE'd Saturn so the slot is fine. I think I just fucked it up somewhere by trying to update it.

I probably need to get a new cart. Stupid cheap shit.

Elevator action returns is the best elevator action.

>>8337126
Draginforce, rayearth, all the psikyo shooters, most of the capcom games. At the moment in love with 60fps out run, sol divide and 1943. Saturn is best console.

Pseudo Saturn's been updated (didn't fix any of my issues, though).

i played this on taito legends 2 for ps2. is the saturn version better?

>>8338535
Fightan games?

>>8339589
They are both fine but they have their little idiosyncrasies. Saturn version has loading times between stages and PS2 version is 480i. The xbox version of Taito Lengends 2 supports 480p but I never played it so can't comment on that.

If you want to play it, just stick to arcade emulators like FB Neo or Mame.

>>8337145
Woah, this game looks fuckin sick!! Is it basically just Starfox but all first person dog fights?

>>8339724
Yeah, pretty much.

>>8339724
Got a few more.

I really wanted to like this and its prequel but they're just unplayable - at least through emulation. Actual 20 fps and heavy input lag on top were more than I could handle. Impossible to reliably line up shoots quickly. Surprisingly the fist game has a much deeper and refined control scheme.

>>8337126
What's a good Saturn emulator for Windows? I want to try out SMT: Devil Summoner and Saturn version of Symphony of the Night

>>8339787
Oh yeah, and how could I forget my favorite Saturn game?

Well which ones do you personally recommend? Which one have you guys used and why do you use them compared to others?

>>8339818
I use Beetle Saturn which is the RetroArch core of Mednafen. Use standalone Mednafen if you don't like RetroArch and your PC is not a toaster.

Fighting games, shooting games, strategy rpg's. Plus SS is the last proper 2D hardware.

>>8339604
That's the one area I know of already. My ODE is equipped to the hilt with a bunch of fighting games.
