In this thread we celebrate the sega SATURN. The most wonderful console ever made. And the last bastion of true hardcore gaming. It is this console which.... Oh Hi Bernieposter... didnt expect you this soon, please take a seat!

SSF is very good but while it has native bin/cue support now, I find it just won't work on some files at all (I only use redump releases so there's no issue my end) - so you have to mount them in Daemon Tools as nothing else seems to work reliably with SSF.
I generally just use Beetle Saturn now because I don't want Daemon Tools on my PC.

Mednafen runs too fast and just about all Saturn emulators fudge their VDP2 implementations which wreaks havoc for people developing homebrew, rom hacks, and translation patches.

Example of playing too fast:
Mednafen:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GXUwCW8yTI
Real Hardware:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8YO0LUBwas

Then in developing the Grandia Translation patch it was found that while emulators did this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAKUbJF5G6g
Real Hardware did this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBGBpn2cO1c

For that last one it was found that while the emulators will let you get away with invalid settings, the real thing is much more picky and it took a lot of trial and error to get that part working correctly.

so i'm just getting into saturn and picked up a grey model 1 jap console, not knowing that it can't play a very small handful of games that require the jhl loader on pseudo saturn (the obvious ones i want to play being panzer dragoon 2 zwei and panzer dragoon saga)
will getting a modchip instead fix this? i doubt they'll ever fix it since it's such a specific issue.
