nah thats far from it, saturn is revered as one of the greatest systems in terms of its import games....do you remmeber how SCREWED we used tyo be during the 32 bit era of games when the japanese got all the cool neat features that werent allowed due to censoring, or just lack of support on this side of the pond?

No. Nowhere Man is correct.

Yeah, I'd give you the Dreamcast if that's what you were going for, but the Saturn? It was like looking for decent indie music: what was good was really good, but you had to dig through a lot of total crap to get to it.

All Virtua Fighters
Virtua Racing Deluxe
Guardian Heroes (6 player awesomeness)
Bomberman Hi-10 (Japanese, 10 player and the best bomberman ever made)
All Panzer Dragoons
Both Daytonas
Sonic Jam
Sega Rally
Fighters Megamix
Fighting Vipers
Last Bronx
Sonic R
Policenaughts (wait for the translation unless you know Japanese though)
NiGHTS and Christmas NiGHTS

There's more, but they've not come to me yet. In terms of multi-platform games, if you get the RAM cartridge, the Saturn wiped the floor with the PS1 versions of SNK and Capcom 2D fighting games, while Duke Nukem 3D is another brilliant port.

If you get it and find it doesn't save to the internal memory, it just needs the battery replacing which is in a small compartment in the back.

Virtua Cop 2 if you like light gun shooters. Also Mortal Kombat II, that port isn't the best but its alright.

MK trilogy and Time Crisis 2 didn't come out for the Saturn so replace them with UMK3 and House Of The Dead.

I couldv'e sworn I played TC2 on it. It was some kind of timed shooter game. Gamefaqs doesn't list it, so I guess not.

And to think, like 1/4 of that money you could've bought the arcade machine and play for free all you want. I want an arcade machine. :(

Heh, I've got a magazine that was doing a preview on them and said the reason it wasn't coming to Saturn was because of UMK3. Guess it came out anyways.

But yeah, Virtua Cop 2 is also awesomeness

Ultimate Mortal Kombat, although for everything in the game, it will load. Even for the friggin' fatalities and the "__ wins". Still, awesome game.
