Maybe I would if they weren't so obscenely expensive. Probably my favorite console aside from Chinese handhelds. Saturn will never be SEGA CD. Long live da SEGA CD

Literally zero reason to own one when the mega ever drive pro exists and can boot sega cd games without the need for the addon

The limited library isn't worth spending $200 or more on a good condition Sega CD, and with my luck would probably stop working after a month or less

I owned three different ones growing up, under console model, side-by-side model and a CDX.
I also owned Heimdall but never beat it.

>The limited library
I had, like, 30 games or so for mine, all of them (save Shitlog Holmes) were at least decent. I did not have Night Trap, Time Gal or Sewer Shark.

There are less than 15 good games for the system.

The shmups are pretty good imo. Snatcher and the Lunar games are also generally well-liked, as well as Cobra: The Space Adventure (adventure game similar to Snatcher), Mickey Mania and Earthworm Jim. I personally also really like The Terminator, Starblade, and Road Rash. There's plenty more than just FMV games. Genesis ports are also not a bad thing, that's the entire point, it's like regular Genesis but better.

You might like Keio Flying Squadron. Rami is like a younger and goofier Mail with a pet dragon. Not an RPG but it carries a similar lighthearted tone

Nta but I couldn't get into this, felt like an extremely easy and basic shmup. The side-scroller sequel on Saturn was pretty good though

I feel like way too many people lump the SEGA CD together with the 32X. They're really not the same, neither of them are bad imo, but the SEGA CD had significantly more (and arguably better) games

I ordered the X5 a week ago. My first everdrive purchase, and didn't realize it shipped from fucking Ukraine until after I hit buy. Oh well I have a cheap chinese cart with 200 games on it to keep me company till then

It has better games and it looks cooler, but it's still too expensive to be worth it imo. I found a working 32x for 50 bucks, good luck getting a Sega CD for that price

Well yeah. It gets a lot of crap because of the AVGN video and people confusing it with the 32X and 3DO (which are also not that bad), but it has plenty of solid titles. I prefer it over Saturn, so much so that I downloaded the entire English-friendly rom set for it. Plenty of great games on it, I don't understand why people skip straight to Saturn when CD has more of what made the Genesis great to begin with.

Wish people would realize it's more than just Night Trap and Sewer Shark. Some titles feel like early PS1 games (especially games like Lunar and Mickey Mania that eventually did get a PS1 port)

32x core doesnt support s-video or composite
so unless youre an rgb-crt richfag you arent emulating either
