Ended up with Virtua Fighter 2, Warcraft 2, Hexen and Black Fire. All of them are in decent condition, and none of them were scratched! (Let's hope it stays that way lol!) I swear I didn't take this picture upside down! Lmao --- End quote --- I really like Hexen. I think it's constantly underrated by game sites. I never have played the Saturn version, specifically, though. Warcraft 2 is one I played on Playstation and really enjoyed, but again have never played the Saturn version specifically. Virtua Fighter 2 is a great pick if you're into 3D fighters. But be warned, it is a bit clunky by today's standards. Black Fire I've never played. Let me know how it is. |

@Burningdoom, I'm having a blast with Hexen and Warcraft 2! I've played WC2 on the PC and the controls take some getting used to, but I'm diggin' it. I really like Virtua Fighter 2 , takes me back to before they demolished the old arcade I used to go to. I'm not sure what to think of Black Fire yet, I'm not really interested in flight simulators, but I will be sure to give it a fair chance and let you know what I think! |

Just curious, I see alot of Japanese Saturn games on ebay that are decently priced. Does anyone know if any of those games translate to English? I know a few american titles translate to other languages. I'm also aware that I'd need an Action Replay or similar cart for this. |

A lot of games have a mix. And a lot are nothing but Japanese. You definitely have to research it first. However, a lot of the games are cheaper. But not all. When I started collecting for the saturn, I decided to collect exclusively japanese titles. I did this because: 1) the price - most games are cheaper, even with shipping counted in. But be careful, for every expensive saturn game we have, they have one. Just depends on the titles you are looking for. 2) the cases - US saturn cases suck. I also am building a sega cd collection and that is all of the big cases I want. 3) Nostalgia - As a kid, I lived in Japan for a little while (dad was in the air force). Also, during the mid 90s, I was mega envious of the titles Japan would get. So, it is nice to have a system from that time being an import only system. 4) The saturn is not my favorite system - It has some good games, but never really spoke to me personally. |

Thanks, sin2beta! I never got a chance to play the Saturn when it came out, I'm really enjoying it (because it's new to me) Everyone says how much they hate the NA Saturn cases, but I was actually looking forward to throwing some of those long boxes on my shelf lol. I really like them for some reason :o The Sega CD is also uncharted territory for me. My dad would only give money to Sony and Nintendo lol! But I'm looking forward to owning and collecting for that as well. Also, I finally got out to my favorite game store today, and the only title worth mentioning they had was Sonic 3D Blast. I will probably pick it up next week, but I was disappointing (because they usually have whatever I'm looking for!) But all is well, because my girlfriend bought an in box SNES for $70 and they threw in A Link To The Past with the manual and Killer Instinct for FREE! And out of this, I get her old SNES! (Another system I never had the privilege of owning!) Lol, time to figure out how to formulate some "Retr0brite". ('Cause this thing is yella!) I seriously love that store! And my girlfriend ;D |
