The 2D fighters of the 32 bit era are still so amazing today. Back in the 32 bit era, I would play my Saturn and Playstation almost equally for fighting games. Tekken, Soul Blade, Rival Schools, and Star Gladiator of PSX and The Capcom, SNK, and Sega fighters on my Saturn. No surprise that 25 years later and I can still pick up my old Saturn 2D games and play them for hours. But, I put in one of my old PS1 3D games and they just look so terrible now. 2D = timeless!

So true. The 2D Sprite-based games have aged like fine wine. Gameplay and "character" is still robust within them. But man... the polygonal games on ps1 are really rough to play. Sony really did dupe the masses back then into thinking that "something was wrong" if a game was 2D and polygon-free. I'm so glad I wasn't one of those people who fell for their marketing propaganda.
@recoildisruptor3217

^We will agree to disagree, and for several reasons. 1. The precedent was set by Sony when it came to the "rush to adopt polygons" while 2D was arguably still in its prime at the time. As usual, Sony paid for lots of marketing propaganda when they entered the console market. They even had a staunch "no 2D" policy implemented for several years -- it's quite likely that this happened because sony was fully aware of how much better the Sega Saturn was at handling sprite-based games. 2. The n64 was released (at least) one year after sony's ps1. Nintendo had trouble even securing third parties back then, despite the n64 still being a success. They didn't have a "no 2D" policy; they just had difficulty securing third parties due to their insistence on remaining cartridge based. The only platform holder to have a "no 2D" policy at any time was Sony. I was fortunate enough to see it all unfold throughout that generation as a multi-console owner, so I had an unbiased set of eyes on things. Summer jobs sure did come in handy back then 🙏

The Reason Capcom never developed anything for SEGA back in the Master System and Mega Drive days was because of Nintendo super restrictive policies, they were forced to develope games only for Nintendo and every single 3rd party developer could publish only a couple of games per year, their work around was to give the license to SEGA or other companies who would reprogram the games themselves

Once I saw the FMV intro for Street Fighter Alpha 2 for PlayStation, I knew I was in for some disappointment. My friend picked up a Saturn just for X-Men vs. Street Fighter & after I saw that, I purchased my Saturn soon after to import titles. This was such an exciting time and importing for the Saturn was very easy as converters were easily accessible. I realized then that Saturn was an absolute 2-D juggernaut & blew the PlayStation ports out of the water.

I played X-Men: Children of the Atom to death! My top fave characters to play with were Akuma, Psylocke, and Cyclops. I didn't think it was as hard as it was fun (especially with the combo system). But sometimes (rarely) the AI would get pretty cheap, especially the Magneto fight. Street Fighter Alpha 2. Definitely a top favorite! It even had some super easy cheat codes. Holding either of the top shoulder buttons when choosing a character would give you either rapid-fire for the attack buttons (using this with Guy meant you could do his signature combo from Final Fight!) and the other gave you unlimited custom combo time. The thing is - you couldn't have both rapid-fire and infinite custom combo time. Also! Whenever you'd win a match you could choose most of the winning poses with 1 or 2 combinations of buttons (I can't recall). Same character matches gave you ultra-sharp sound effects... Mega-Man X4... I can credit this game getting me into Anime. Those cheezy cutscenes! lol Shortly after that I watched AKIRA... But that's another story for another time and channel.

Japanese gamers have a different mindset. As much as there were a lot of gamers in other countries that loved 2D games at the time, the mass market was getting wowed by polygon graphics, especially with Sony promoting 3D games on the Playstation. Most gamers had moved on from SNES and Genesis and wanted more realistic graphics. It's like SEGA Lord X mentioned in his video about why the Saturn failed in the US, SEGA did not tailor it's game releases to a US audience. Sure releasing games like X-Men Vs Street Fighter and other 2D games would have helped, but the mass market wanted good 3D sports games and other 3D based games. I still have most of my import Saturn collection and they are mostly 2D games that never made it outside of Japan. Still, like you I'm sure, we only make up a small percentage of gamers that still appreciate 2D games.

Had never heard of that ghost or mahjong game before.. Interesting surprises for sure! Watching this video reaffirmed why Capcom & Sega were such a perfect combo! Save for a few stragglers, a rock-solid line of classic games and superior ports of titles far too few really got to enjoy. Have to make special note of the SF: Alpha review and say.. Thank You for putting a spotlight on that just blatant bit of bias and BS!! I actually loved Game Fan Magazine for many reasons, but that review truly tested how much. As it was such a ludicrous critique and obviously inaccurate! GFM also got rather embarrasing comeuppance about 6 months prior to that SFA review that anyone interested in fun gaming history should look into. In the September '95 issue of GFM there was a page at the front of the sports section that essentially rips the staff and what they love most a new one! It had all kinds of mistakes, swearing and nastiness written, apparently they didn't check the copy at all before sending it to the printer.. Yikes! The following issue had an editorial apology (Written in both English and Japanese, as Japan & Japanese developers were the primary targets of the garbage text in the previous issue!) explaining what happened and it's obvious that incident personally bothered them. Shame that their console bias got in the way just months later, as GFM is probably the leading supporter of the Saturn in the U.S. from that era, so it's hard to understand why the SFA review was so broken.. The 90's were a crazy time for sure and GFM was the craziest! Thanks, SLX!

Game magazine reviews always favorably scored Saturn ports of Capcom games higher than the PS versions. It was a wrap for me when the Japanese Saturn port of X-men vs Street Fighter with the 4 meg RAM cartidge came out. It blew away the PS version in every way, and was the closest thing to a 100% accurate conversion of the arcade version(gaming publication reviews were in consensus that it was 99% accurate, which was unheard of back then), before CPS2 emulation became available

I was shocked however when i played a bunch of arcade fighters at a freiends cousins place on the NeoGeo, it was older than Saturn it couldnt do 3d but goddam it had all perfect arcade games. SVC Chaos, Samurai Shodown2, Last Blade, Real Bout Fatal Fury, Art of Fightine and some insane shooters. Before i played that system i always pissed on any system that couldnt do proper arcade ports. Years later i got a copy of NeoGeo and to this day it and the Saturn are still my fave 2D systems. There's just something magical about amazing hand drawn art thats clear and sharp as crystal, old 3D polygons aged badly but games like Darkstalkers and Alpha, Art of Fighting 3 , Sengoku 2 still look as amazing as they day they came out beacuse of the imless beautiful art =)

Capcom were one of the last third party developers to support the Saturn,plus all the last few fighters they released for the SATURN made use of the 4megabit cart (which were only playable if u owned a 50/60hz switch modded palSaturn or a Jap’ SATURN)which made them truly arcade perfect down to every tiny background animation.I loved & suppoted the Saturn until I owned all the triple A,must have Japanese import games.

I remember that issue of Gamefan well, lol. TBH as silly as it was, I found the blue shadows episode kind of endearing, no other magazines at the time cared that much, especially about something that didn't involve polygon-related buzzwords. Despite that review they definitely remained the biggest Sega supporters in the North American press, due to their passion for 2D games. Decades later the guy who did that review, Nick Rox, eventually showed up on NeoGAF (or was it Resetera? I forget) as Aokage, which is Japanese for blue shadow. At least he kept a sense of humour about it.

Rockman X3 did have different music compared to the SFC version. Still they could have done more, or at least make it a compilation.

There is nothing really notable to differentiate the 2 games. They are largely the same aside from a few sound differences and a couple of different background effects.

I believe the Saturn port of Resident Evil actually looks better than the PlayStation port. Yes, it has ugly meshes in place of the transparencies found in the PlayStation version; However, the polygonal characters look cleaner without the warping issues found in most PlayStation games (accept walking over zombies). It appears polygons don't seem to disappear into each other as bad on the Saturn either. The backgrounds look almost identical at least too me.

There's an interesting fact about the ps1 Street Fighter Alpha. Actually, the graphics are in memory smaller and later zoomed in in-game. You can see this at the end of a fight, where there's not background and you can see clearly the artifacts generated by scaling up the graphics. The Gamefan people are really wrong if they believed that ps1 was arcade perfect conversion...

I think the reason acclaim released those games was because capcom didn't have enough man power available and needed help getting both of those games out. I doubt they would have left a marvel game in japan only with it being so early in the life of the system. In the case of X-men/msh vs street fighter that was because of the ram cart not being here and certain idiots working at sega not wanting to bring them here.

I think people may get the Sega Saturn version of Street Fighter: The Movie confused with the Playstation port, or the arcade game. Or maybe most don't realize that the Saturn version is a different game? I like the Saturn game, myself. The visuals have that cheesy digitized look to them as well.

You are still a title raw about the whole Gamefan thing 😃 No matter. Your Saturn coverage is really detailed and interesting. I never considered checking out Saturn stuff until watching your videos the last couple of day. Lots of cools stuff! Thanks!

Yes. It’s still Megaman X3 but if it was going to be exactly like the SNES then releasing “Saturn Megaman X Willy Wars” would have been worth the full retail price if it was the main issue.

Alot of Japanese 3rd parties didn't like Sega of Japan because of how aggressive and feudal they were at the time with their licensing agreements. Nintendo of Japan however allowed 3rd parties to create their own cartridges and custom chipsets; which is what created a more friendly environment in Nintendo Japan's surroundings at the time.

I never got the Saturn despite being a big Sega fan during the 16 but era. It was barely advertised in Ireland and 3d games were all people talked about which generally didn't interest me. If these games had been released and advertised in Ireland I maybe wouldn't have given up on gaming for so long

I don't understand why they say there is no transparency in sega saturn. Megaman 4 is all transparency visuals from the get-go. Also I always believe that worldwide, accept japan, we have lower capability console machines. They sell us b-class technology.
