Really great to see some love for the Saturn. It really annoys me when I see videos titled 'why the Saturn failed' - ask any Saturn owner if they agree with that (nope) ! I have a game that is a bit unusual called Torico (Lunacy) and it was a 3d mystery where the protagonist had completely forgotten his memory and has to unravel the clues to figure it out. One of Saturn's many, many gems....and so I must ask...why no Sonic R? I love love LOVE that game! Great video :)

I rented games from blockbuster to try out before buying and they just had a very slim selection at any given time. The last game I rented was Independence Day and it was ASS. That was the point where I said enough and switched to PS1.

I was about to get a Saturn for the first time ever. But really for the money it cost to collect would not be good. I got a ps2 instead and I’ll be able to play ps1 & 2 games and those two consoles have a huge library plus the games for the PlayStation 1 is usually a better version of it. For example mortal kombat trilogy, tomb raider and resistant evil was a bit better on the PlayStation. I’m sure the Saturn is good console and if it wasn’t so expensive I would get one. Mortal Kombat trilogy for the Sega Saturn is over $400 while for the PlayStation it’s around $70 as an example.

Videos like these always remind me of the terrible price sega fans in english speaking territories paid for the in-fighting between sega of america and sega of japan during this time. The very best saturn games of any genre are locked away in the japanese library. Note to anyone interested in collecting japanese Saturn games. Do it now that many of the titles featured here are about 20 bucks. Some like astal or in the hunt are over 50. Many importers use dhl international shipping at about 20-25 bucks and will usually let you ship about 5 games before they increase the shipping charge.
@thedigitaldivide3958

Not sure if I agree with that, no offense. If there was both a US version of a game and a Japanese version of the same game, it made little sense for me to import it. If your goal is to save money, then yes- Japanese copies of Saturn games are much cheaper than their US counter parts, that is true, but the best games for the platform are overwhelmingly available in the US as well as Japan. I made a part 2 video that covers a number of additional titles. It will take me 3-4 videos to cover them all- but I cant think of many worth importing that are locked away to Japan only aside from maybe Cotton, Grandia and handful of others.

In my opinion, Dragon Force 2 is a half-hearted rehash of the first title. I did not find it particularly noteworthy. Suikoden was great, but I played that on the PS1. I suppose if you were limited to only owning the Sega Saturn and did not own other 32 bit consoles of the era I can see where you're coming from- but many of the Japanese only Saturn ports were inferior to their counter parts, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night being a prime example. I owned all of the consoles of that era (N64, Saturn, PS1, etc). For the Saturn I tended to gravitate towards games that were made for it specifically, for the most part.

Hell, you even admitted that the best version of daytona circuit is on the import saturn.

Daytona USA CCE was released in the USA, it was not a Japanese exclusive. The Saturn was the king of 2D fighters, correct- pretty much every 2D fighter was better on the Saturn, especially with the Ram expansion. Most of those great 2D fighters were released in the US though. I’m not an SNK fan personally, so not my wheelhouse. All of this is subjective- as everyone has different tastes. My point is that I don’t feel like the Saturn’s US library of games were lacking, there are so many great ones. Every single game on both of my “Best Of” list of Saturn games were released in the US except for the 2 or 3 that I specifically call out.
