Life's been in the way this last year so I haven't been on much (new house, marriage, etc.) But to provide background, I'm a pretty big SEGA fan, it's pretty much all I collect. And I have a tough time loving the Saturn. I'm waiting for the day when it "clicks" with me. But as of now, it is less of a console and an arcade-at-home for SEGA model 2 and ST-V boards along with SNK and Capcom 2D arcade boards of the era. A little inferior to the arcades but not too bad. For that, I love it. But, overall, I can't get into it much.
It is mainly a nostalgia piece of something I always wanted but did not have when it was out. I never had it as a kid. I looked at ads a lot and drooled over commercials. Played the hell out of it at kiosks. And for that, I still love it. Possibly more than it deserves...
But for the nostalgia along with X-Men COTA, Street Fighter, King of Fighters, Shmups galore, Virtua Fighter, Virtua Cop, chimps galore, Towers of Mystara, Panzer Dragoon, Lost Vikings 2, NiGHTS, and Die Hard Arcade, I love the Saturn.
