Is there anything on this console for people who aren't speed runners?

Mario Party, the Mario sports series, Super Smash Bros, Resident Evil, Perfect Dark, Mario Kart, and Pokémon Snap/Stadium 1 and 2 come to mind. Man, this console really was meant for people with friends or people who had siblings they didn't hate, wasn't it? I can't think of any games on the Saturn that were actively pushing towards multiplayer as much as a lot of the games on the N64. Yeah, there were the Bomberman games, but they definitely weren't any Mario Party.

You're right, Bomberman is certainly no mario party. Bomberman is actually fun.

>Check.. check... Is this thing on?
*audience murmur dies down*
>So... Sega Saturn...
*a lone "oooh" comes from the back of the room*
>299 might not have been the launch price, no, but it was the number of them we managed to sell!
*scattered chuckles reverberate throughout the audience*
>Now, some might be surprised to learn that the Saturn actually outsold the Nintendo 64 in Japan... Not me, though... I always knew it was Number Two! *blows raspberry*
*audience erupts into laughter and applause*
>...And furthermore, does anyone else think that "Saturn" was a lousy name for it? If you ask me, it shoulda been called "Uranus" instead... PEE-YEW!
*roaring laughter and whistles erupt from the audience*
>Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week!

All consoles are shit. With PC's at least you can do something creative, but consoles are just plain consumption platforms.

Why are there so many Saturn "fans" trying to recommend games they never played? The Blue Destiny games are fucking dog shit.

People also like to "recommend" the Nadesico game (which is actually good) but they constantly confuse it with the shitty Dreamcast one and make retarded claims about things in its story that don't exist.

>High reliance on arcade ports
>Every decent first-party Saturn game with international release had a PC port, further questioning relevance of Saturn
>Online services used by nobody
>Porn games literally allowed in Japan in pitiful attempt to get salarymen dimes, causing a ROM site to list a stripping game the most downloaded Saturn game at one point
>Existence pretty much erased from Sega's official history books outside Japan as a result of tanking Sega's console chances
