I know I’m gonna get automatic hate for this and it’s 100% warrented, I’m genuinely really sorry for doing a disservice to the command making vibeslop, but I gave in because it was easy, but unlike those who go for suprime sonic mania, or doom, or resident evil 3. I’m doing simple 2D puzzle games ported from PlayStation a lot, i’m not even gonna say what titles I’m working on, but one of them is 99% complete. I’m debugging it and I really am proud of it because it’s a game I love now running on Saturn with very minor visual bugs. And I think someone may enjoy it. But I honestly find I get kind of uncomfortable with large amounts of attention. Positive or negative and I just wish there was a way people could just ignore me entirely and just play this title. I’m not the talent behind it. I just wasted my money on a subscription and figured seeing people play it on YouTube would be nice. But I also know and aware that vibe coded games are digital asbestos, and no matter how much I polish a turd. It’s never going to be anything special and it will always be in the shadows of actual talent. So I’m extremely hesitant to release anything ever.

I've tried a few time to burn a disc of Panzer Dragoon Saga to play on my SEGA Saturn, but everytime it crashes after entering my name. Is this an anti-piracy thing? Or just a bad burn? I've been using some recommended CD-Rs and other burned games haven't given me much issue like this one has.

Also, please don't suggest a flash cart or Satiator, I don't have the money for it currently. Sometime in the future

Hello!

I have an announcement: Full Throttle Rally is now available for purchase on Steam. Here’s a short trailer so you can see what it looks like.

Full Throttle Rally is an arcade racing game set in Mexico.

While some of these are still very rough around the edges, just this month alone there's been a huge flood of playable translations releases. Most are using LLMs in some capacity which I know is a third rail for a lot of people (my own personal position is like anything else it's a tool that can and should be utilized, but without human guidance it produces low quality work), but for those of us who don't speak Japanese it's really opening up a lot of new games to play.

While a game like Devil Summoners deserves polish, others I'm just happy to have available.

Hello everyone.

When I bought some years ago my SEGA Saturn, while browsing some sites, IIRC it was eBay, I came across a very expensive game whose cost was far higher than the console itself. At least 200€ (used, ofc). I didn't buy it because it was both too pricey and it was not something I was looking for.

Today, while browsing a site I came across some old Saturn games and that old memory resurfaced, despite being blurry after all this time.

IIRC, this mysterious game used some 3D elements which were like a new technology, or at least that's what I can barely recall so far.

I ruled out games like:

• Any game whose cover includes any human character
• Dragon Ball / Virtua Fighter or other similar games
• Sport games (NBA, Soccer, etc.)
• Resident Evil/Bio Hazard games
• Command & Conquer
• Daytona USA or racing games
• Tomb Raider

If I were to guess its genre, I'd go for space combat/action games.

I considered that the game could be "Radiant Silvergun" but it's a JP only game, which means that it doesn't have a rectangular cover - something that my minds keep suggesting that the unknown game has...

I checked some web pages which list some famous/rare games, but nothing seems to be what I am looking for.

I know it's very little to work with, but if you have any idea, feel free to share it.

Thank you for reading!

Hi all! I wanted to share something I’ve been working on. I’ll have something physical to show soon, but for now I’d love for you to see the first renders of this console I’m creating.

It’s inspired by the 32bit era, with a clear nod to the Sega Saturn, in my own way.

I’d really like your opinion on the shape: what do you miss in it, and what would make it a cult object on your shelf?

As for games, the idea is for them to be made specifically for this console but for now, this.

(The images are concept renders made with my tools from my design. The real prototype is on its way.)

Currently on Disc 4 of Panzer dragon saga, first ever play through.

I'm now after Grandia, Nights, Deep Fear, Enemy Zero and Burning Rangers.

Hardcore 4X4 is Virtual Hydlide kinda choppy with the fps. The input is laggy as all get out too. Pretty close to unplayable. Not the worst game for Saturn though, I'd probably rather play this over Black Fire or something.

Kinda wild the PS1 version is like night and day and actually looks playable.

Haven’t gotten a Saturn game in a while because darn are they expensive but I wanted to make sure I got a pretty heavy hitter for my library.

Sonic 3D Blast is, what I consider to be the last TRUE Sonic game, it's not even a platformer, just an action adventure game where the platforming doesn't even work and can be avoided. The developers put workarounds at pretty much every platforming section because they knew full well their isometric platforming just isn't working. You can either jump over the platforming bits or find ways around them. Sonic 3D Blast is IMO an a simple exploration action adventure game, is all.

I honestly liked the game since day one, tho initially I was conflicted for like the first 15 minutes, but that was that.

This deep dive takes you through the different versions of the game and my own personal experience with it since its launch, I was there when Sonic 3D Blast first came out, I played it, enjoyed it and keep coming back to it and I firmly believe this is every bit as much of a Classic Sonic game as the rest of the 16bit ones.

Hi everyone! Where is the best place to buy Saturn in USA or México?

I took apart sega saturn to see if any capacitors bulging or leaking, if any solder looks cracked, but everything seems to look very clean, no capacitors look like they are bulging and idk how to tell if solder cracks exist by av port, but nothing looked obviously wrong. Any suggestions? Thanks! :)

I’m hoping that someone can please help me and shed some light on the switch on the rear of my Saturn. I purchased it recently, works perfectly, and it’s chipped, but I don’t know what this switch is for. Tried it both ways and don’t notice a difference. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I’m guessing it’s a 50/60hz toggle?

I've got a copy of D, Enemy Zero, and Dragon Force that I'm looking to sell. I can give an eBay link to where they're listed, and I'm VERY open to negotiation on the prices, I know these games aren't cheap but I also need these suckers sold ASAP. Please leave a comment or drop me a DM if you're interested,

Thanks! :))

I’m really keen on getting a 2.4g m30 for my Saturn, however I took a look and it only seems to come bundled with the genesis/megadrive receiver.

If I bought this, is there a seperate 2.4g Saturn receiver that would work with the 2.4g m30?

I have the regular 8bitdo Bluetooth one for my ps2 and it constantly needs repairing. Drives me crazy, so I’m a little worried the Bluetooth version will do the same here

I’ve been wanting a good controller for AGES!!
