Is there anywhere left to buy Saturn modchips? Specifically for a Model 1? I thought there was this one site that sold universal modchips that I looked up a month ago but now I can't find them for some reason.

And no I'm not using PsuedoSaturn. It's incompatible with a ton of games.

You have to email some guy who is based in the UK to get one, if I remember right

I know about that one, but this was another site I was looking for. I was on it less than a month ago, and now it's just gone.

Total bullshit how modchips for the Saturn are so hard to get when it's library has by far the biggest ratio of bullshittingly expensive games.

Just get an AR cart and flash pseudo saturn on it and burn some CDs

There's a guy that posted a video of his working ODE he's developing for the Saturn. Don't know what the ETA on release is though.

You can try talking to a guy named Zer0-2K11 on the assembler forums.
I bought a modchip and region free bios from him without any issues.

Yeah, that's where I ended up.

Just sent him a PM, hope it goes well.

Didn't he say it's not for commercial release?

>> No.3368954

>>3368950
Did you watch the video? He says he wants to make a commercial version but he's focusing on his major and other commitments first and foremost.

I have never had Pseudosaturn not work with a game, and I've played a fuckton of them.

>> No.3369273

Why not program your own modchip using a cheap modern microcontroller?

I bet my left nut that's just a repackaged pseudo saturn. Don't fall for shit like that.

>> No.3369885

your right it is, but it does come with a action replay, 1-4mb ram expansion and a region by-pass so it's worth it IMO

You can get an AR cart for 30USD or less. Flashing it yourself is ez.

email Rob Webb, Zer0-2k11, or Bad_Ad84.

All of them sell modchips that work on all consoles, including all three model 1s.

Will a modchip be able to play burned games from different regions?

>> No.3370618

>>3370505
No.
If you want to play games from a different region then you're either going to have to get an action replay cart or get a region free bios for your system.

>> No.3370647

>>3370618
You can patch a game's region to whatever you want before you burn it.

If you region patch the games prior to burning, then yes.
