Resident Evil for the Saturn is also my favorite version of it as well. 1) It had the exclusive 2 player battle mode 2) It had an exclusive zombified Wesker and Gold Tyrant in the battle mode 3) It had the exclusive new monster called Ticks on the main game 4) 2 exclusive suits for Chris and Jill 5) There was another Tyrant battle after you defeat the 1st one in Chris's playthrough Interesting also was that while Capcom both published and developed the PS1 version, Capcom had only published the Saturn version as it was developer Nextech (who specializes in ports) that made it for the Saturn.
Vectorman for the Saturn would have been amazing as well as an official Streets of Rage 4. Cool you actually know of Sathanas, my brothers in the band lol He's the Drummer
I only recently found out about your channel. I think your reviews and style is among the best. It is so cool to see someone point out both the good and the bad in stuff.
I got a Sega Saturn when it first came out, yes I'm 29, and the one game I always wanted but never got was Nights & after all these years of still wanting it, it was released on PSN & I have to say that the LONG wait to play that game was worth it!! Btw, I still have & play my Saturn. One of the best consoles ever, in my humble opinion.
Didn't know you did a Saturn collection vid. I noticed you posted on my channel that you liked my Saturn collection a few years back. Nice collection as well! :)
Awesome video man!! i like that you're not just naming off games but actually giving an impression on each one. I'm definitely checking out parts 2 & 3!
Love these game collection videos of yours Alpha. I really wished I had a Sega Saturn but they are so expensive and difficult to collect for these days.
BUG! was an awesome game to play when i was younger. I really enjoyed beating that game. Sega Saturn is one of the best GAMING systems ever made! They can keep their blu-ray player, I want good games!
Thanks for the vid! Ive been on a big retro kick lately picking up a lot of classic systems and games from my childhood. I never was able to really enjoy a lot of what Saturn had to offer, but recently got a good deal on a good quality model 1 system and some games. Now its time to find others to add with em! :D
I remember playing Virtua Fighter 2 as a kid and being amazed with the gameplay and I recently got another saturn and VF2 and it's nothing like I remembered. Yes it was super floaty
i really dig ur vids bro ... keep em coming ... thanks again.. u seem like someone i woulda hung out with in high school or so ... i like ur honesty on games
Sega Saturn will always be one of my favorite systems just for the fact that Capcom brought some great games to the system. Its a shame my Saturn broke several years ago
Thought I would mention this IMPORTANT info: Marvel Super Heroes US/JP versions have the option to use the 1MB ram cart that was used for SNK fighting games in Japan. You can use any 1MB or 4MB capable ram cart and there will be a extra ram selection in the options menu. You get more frames which matches the animation of the arcade game... but it slows the speed of the game down. So turn the speed all the way up and the game will play at the normal game speed at best.
(I watched all three parts, but I'm just gonna comment here) You actually own (and like) most of the same Saturn games I do, though you own way more. And yes, Bug and Toshinden suck, haha. They are blights in my Saturn collection. Awesome videos! This made me really nostalgic and I need to start playing my Saturn again.
deep down I wish Sega had been able to remain in the hardware race at microsoft's expense. They made beautiful music with capcom during the saturn/dreamcast days
But don't you want to spend $50 on the latest 2K, Madden, and CoD, regardless of the fact that you know for a fact that said $50 is going down the shitter because there's just going to be a new one the next year I mean it's basketball and football so it's not like the only possible difference between the $50 you just spent and the $50 you're going to spend is in graphics and new guns alone besides that would be totally worth it rightrightright it's also not like one could turn on a TV and watch the SAME GODDAMN THING for free. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? You don't? You think that story, music, character development, and general whimsy make a good game?You'reafuckinggayassnerdididyourmom. I hate middle schoolers.
Eggscramblercomms LoL I like how you just pointed out why the xbox brand hasn't changed gaming for the better. I would take Sega's games over EA poop any day of the week.
unstoppableExodia I'd take almost any game company's games over EA's garbage though. Would be really nice to play a new Sega console, or just had some major new releases on the Dreamcast.. like Shenmue III :)
I dunno how I got onto your video but you've got a pretty neat Saturn collection. I've been collecting PAL Saturn for years but I've had to stop 'cause of how expensive these games are over here. Right on with most of your opinions on these games dude but seriously; Cyber Speedway and Crime Wave are a big plate of bollocks.
I've bought my first Sega Saturn MK1 today!!! Yuppie!!! With VF2 and two controllers! paid 70$ for it ;-( (this console wasn't and isn't very popular in Poland - that is why the price is high). Anyway, great collection of brilliant games, Alpha!!! Congrats!!!
Dude. If you have a Sega Genesis, then you should do a collection video on it! I never really was a Sega Saturn fan (but then again I never played it). All in all good video, very well done.
Use rubbing alcohol and a Qtip to clean the lens on your sega saturn guns. It may help you restore their playability. Use a standard tv from the 90s. I bought a gun for Saturn and it works great
Also a couple of days ago I went into a local Pawn shop and they had a copy of Myst without the booklet for $3.99. I plan on gettning a Saturn so I took it as a sign. Ah the videogame Gods have smiled on me yet again.
Did you know that Shining Force 3's story was suppose to be spread across three different scenarios, effectively making you have to buy three different games to get the whole story? The only reason why the US and UK version of Shining Force 3 gave you any sense of closure was cause they changed the ending and hoped we wouldn't find out. People are still working hard as hell to make a translation patch for all three games so we can at least have it all in english on emulators.
Nice vid, dude! I miss Sega. They're Sammy now but, its awesome to see another Virtual On fan. I got to play the arcade version in Salt Lake at a Nickel Arcade that has dual sticks to play the game with. HOLY FRIGGIN CRAP! You haven't experienced Virtual On unless you've played it on an Arcade, Dual Mission sticks are AWESOME! Wish I had Panzer Dragoon Saga. My bro does though.
Great to see someone showing love for the Saturn. However, I think your videos would be helped tremendously by including in-game footage from each title that you mention. Further, you're not saying very much about any of the games on your list, just that you like them a lot. No need to do a full review, but you should think of three points or so to cover for each game, to help explain why you like each one and what helps make it stand out from the crowd.
Hey alpha i have been watching you for a while. I really enjoy your content although i miss these kind of video. Just curious how long did it take you to build your collection once you really took off? Did you buy in bulk? Also Keep up the great work man!
@KiiraTheHedgehog you should get a hold of it when you can, the little 3d hub world is a bunch of fun, i had a blast with it. plus they have little missions you can do in it too so its not just for the hell of it and running around. depressing cause it would have been even more awesome to see sega make an entire sonic game for the saturn back then. honestly i think that would have helped it sell alot more outside of japan. kinda like how it did for the genesis/mega drive
Oh wow! Sonic Jam is the only Sonic Saturn game I haven't played. I can't find it anywhere at this point x_X It's a must have. Sonic R is one of my fav games of all times.
@JASONMOORE87 yeah the sales pretty much were crap everywhere cept japan, which is also the reason why they had a slew of kick ass games and the import market boomed so much for that system, still does ironically since the saturn had many exclusives and on top of that some of the most perfect arcade conversions back in the day.
@kyuss015 Hell man the import scene for the Saturn is most definitely amazing but the U.S. selection is genuinely nice. Overlooked by many sadly because of the offerings on PS1 and N64, but still worth checking out. Many exclusive classics too which makes it worth noting alone
@strykah92 the exclusive monster shows up in one part of the game, so its pretty easy to miss since it shows up once and thats pretty much that. bummed me out cause i thought it wouldve been cool to see it show up in place of some zombies later on when you come back and theres hunters everywhere. As for it showing up in deadly silence. that i dont believe so cause i played through it twice now and never saw it
did you know that in the PC version of resident evil, you can unlock two weapons for jill and chris. chris gets the M249 machine gun and jill gets the MAC 10 sub machine gun. sadly it is only on the PC version.
I had Virtual On, Sonic Jam is my all time favorite pseudo game....Besides playing Sonic 3 + Knuckles (my actual all-time favorite game), i spent so much time watching the videos in the 3D world's museums, and listening to the music, and looking at the pictures....the Sonic series has the best music for me, hands down. Had Sonic R (meh), had Shining the Holy Ark.....only Shining Force series game I ever actually played, but I never beat it because I got hopelessly stuck in that one Forest Mansion... Sonic 3D Blast is a forgettable game, but that soundtrack, i've grown to love it as like the best game soundtrack ever for me; Volcano Valley (both acts) has become a top favorite vgmusic theme for me. NiGHTS....ugh, one of the best gaming experiences for me. I loved seeing it in action at Toys R Us and i loved playing it (even had Christmas NiGHTS). the controller they released for NiGHTS is my favorite ever cuz it was so comfortable in my hands. I wish they'd bring back Psylocke for the fighting games...she would've been cool in UMVC3. had Galaxy Fight. it was meh. I do have Rolf and Roomi on my MUGEN roster though.
Resident Evil cover is MUCH better for SS. That zombie is a still shot of that first scene when Jill separates from Barry and hit that Zombie chowing down then it looks over his shoulder. Also, gotta love the real FMV actors and actresses. I have Biohazard and the opening scene is BRUTAL. Our version was edited.
@megaben99 oddly i did not ever know that. kinda neat though, ive seen tons and tons of mods for re on pc so if i saw them i probably just figured it was fan made lol sucks they didn't include it in director's cut
As a fellow Saturn fan, this is a pretty good (part 1 of your) collection. I must say, though, that I think Shining in the Holy Ark is just as good as Shining Force III, and it's a hell of a lot cheaper. Tekken better than VF? I can't agree there, but different people like completely different styles of fighters. But 2D fighters were definitely better on the Saturn, it's controller is the best fighter pad of all time.
I always heard that many Sega consoles were successful in Brazil? In fact I heard that it took the Megadrive / Genesis a while to take off as people were still into the Master System? I might be completely wrong here. All three are quality. Will never, ever sell them no matter how bad things get!
Cyber Speedway was actually released a few months before Wipeout. It's not a clone. It does have a very similar feel, but it came out first. (Also, it's a spiritual sequel to a PC racing game from a few years earlier with a very similar style, CyberRace.) Also, I love Bug. It's from mid 1995, and is one of the first ever 3d platformers. Jumping Flash predates it, but not much else. It's sort of 2d, sort of 3d, but very interesting and original (still unique!). It's way too hard, but good.
my 1st game was Sonic Jam and iv still got it now 1 of the 1st issues, awsom game, and i actually quite like the sonic 3D Blast aswell i think it was really good
I just got my sega saturn a few months ago with a light gun, arcade stick, and sega rally. I opened the case and saw that it was the netlink edition in it. Can you still play online with the saturn?
still have it and the wheel still works, I'm drooling over the net edition Virtual On,still have Nights still love it,that might be my old Cyber speedway ...lol,I got Marvel Vs. Capcom on the saturn import with a translater cartridge,I just looked up some titles I have dang i have $600 to $1k of old games just for the saturn.
The Saturn was a powerful system, more so than the Playstation 1. It had dual RISC processors at 32 bit and CD quality 32 channel sound processor. Saturn also could read instructions faster, quadrilateral rendering, RAM expansion (psx lacked) It was a bitch to program for mainly due to it's development tools and it being too advanced for what was needed at that time for gaming, a bit too premature for some developers liking. Shame really had some awesome games, burning rangers is my fav still!
Saturn also had the best 2-D engine of the 3 big systems that was out at the time. If you put it next to the PS1 2-d fighting games, Saturn was noticeable superior. Some good examples would be the Saturn imports of Thunder Force V and Hyper Duel. The import Saturn also had the 4 meg expansion card. There were so many awesome ones that never came out over here like Groove on Fight. Like the later Fatal Fury games, the KOF series, Wakuwaku 7 etc.
Depends what you enjoy from a game. Search roms and check reviews on game sites. I always like unique games that weren't found anywhere and never replicated. Crusader: No Remorse, Alien Trilogy, D, Loaded, Blast Chamber. Most other games I enjoyed were cross-platform and died down for me after the 4th part. Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Gex. And on your YT icon, if you have Dreamcast - definitely check out Armada. I found it online but it won't load for me.
i disagree. i've been playing Nights for the wii and its one of the most refreshing games I've played in a good while! i desperately need to get the saturn one next. cheers to bulding my saturn collection! already have greats like Astal and Rayman so im on my way!
yeah back around 1996-97, in Japan, Saturn had like %60 of the market while Nintendo in Japan at that time had like %5 of the market...and then there was the Pokemon explosion. many people say that if not for Pokemon, There probably would not even been Nintendo anymore..or at least not anything near as big as it is now. A few weeks after N64 came out in Japan, everyone was wanting to take it back. After the newness died out, they were losing out in the console war at that time
Do you own shinobi for the saturn? I love that game, its amazing. Also total destruction is great too. It's nice to see somebody praise the saturn, back in 96, I had a choice, the saturn, or the playstation. Needless to say, street fighter alpha brought me to the saturn. Now we just need a Street Fighter Alphaomega sin. YOur special move would be ranting CapCom haha
I agree that most of the time, Saturn did better than PS1 at 2D fighters. However, in my opinion, Marvel Super Heroes was one exception. The Saturn one had huge slowdown. True, it may have had more frames of animation, but that is not worth the huge slowdown.
@HiroGaems it does suck that they cost so much now due to their rarity and then on top of that many people didn't take care of them so that dwindles the numbers down even further. i really just wish they could find a way to start releasing them on xbla and psn but apparently sega doesnt have any of the coding to emulate them. dunno how you just lose that kinda stuff, sucks pretty bad
love the collection! I'm noticing how fast my cash is burning on every Saturn game. Any useful hints??? first thing I did was buy to consoles a NA and Japan and now have 8 NA games and 7 Japan games.
Resident Evil for the Saturn is also my favorite version of it as well.
1) It had the exclusive 2 player battle mode
2) It had an exclusive zombified Wesker and Gold Tyrant in the battle mode
3) It had the exclusive new monster called Ticks on the main game
4) 2 exclusive suits for Chris and Jill
5) There was another Tyrant battle after you defeat the 1st one in Chris's playthrough
Interesting also was that while Capcom both published and developed the PS1 version, Capcom had only published the Saturn version as it was developer Nextech (who specializes in ports) that made it for the Saturn.
Vectorman for the Saturn would have been amazing as well as an official Streets of Rage 4.
Cool you actually know of Sathanas, my brothers in the band lol He's the Drummer
I only recently found out about your channel. I think your reviews and style is among the best. It is so cool to see someone point out both the good and the bad in stuff.
I never had a Saturn but recently found one for really cheap so I will start collecting for it
Okay, after TH-cam constantly recommending me your videos, I decided to check this one out, and wasn't disappointed. Freakin' subbed!
Nice collection so far, I never owned one but always wanted to. And I did not know that about resident evil thanks for the info
I got a Sega Saturn when it first came out, yes I'm 29, and the one game I always wanted but never got was Nights & after all these years of still wanting it, it was released on PSN & I have to say that the LONG wait to play that game was worth it!!
Btw, I still have & play my Saturn. One of the best consoles ever, in my humble opinion.

Awesome video man!! i like that you're not just naming off games but actually giving an impression on each one. I'm definitely checking out parts 2 & 3!
I can't believe you do this in one take ... thumbs up to you!!
Love these game collection videos of yours Alpha. I really wished I had a Sega Saturn but they are so expensive and difficult to collect for these days.
I love SEGA Saturn. I never forget how I love it.
BUG! was an awesome game to play when i was younger. I really enjoyed beating that game. Sega Saturn is one of the best GAMING systems ever made! They can keep their blu-ray player, I want good games!
Thanks for the vid! Ive been on a big retro kick lately picking up a lot of classic systems and games from my childhood. I never was able to really enjoy a lot of what Saturn had to offer, but recently got a good deal on a good quality model 1 system and some games. Now its time to find others to add with em! :D
Nice review & collection! Thanks for the upload! Saturn forever!!
I remember playing Virtua Fighter 2 as a kid and being amazed with the gameplay and I recently got another saturn and VF2 and it's nothing like I remembered. Yes it was super floaty
i really dig ur vids bro ... keep em coming ... thanks again.. u seem like someone i woulda hung out with in high school or so ...
i like ur honesty on games
Dude, we could be like... best friends lol. Love Sega anything and I love metal. Thumbs up, and Im subscribing! Keep up the great work sir.
Sega Saturn...my oh my what a good system that was. You have a VERY impressive collection. I'm quite jealous actually lol.
Sega Saturn will always be one of my favorite systems just for the fact that Capcom brought some great games to the system. Its a shame my Saturn broke several years ago
Thought I would mention this IMPORTANT info:
Marvel Super Heroes US/JP versions have the option to use the 1MB ram cart that was used for SNK fighting games in Japan.

So turn the speed all the way up and the game will play at the normal game speed at best.
I love my Saturn to death-WWF Arcade, Road Rash, Mr Bones, Mortal Kombat, Clockwork Knight and lots more = best childhood memories ever
I like your style, man.. I also have a huge gaming collection, most of them being 90's games, also have long hair and metal t-shirts.
(I watched all three parts, but I'm just gonna comment here)
You actually own (and like) most of the same Saturn games I do, though you own way more. And yes, Bug and Toshinden suck, haha. They are blights in my Saturn collection. Awesome videos! This made me really nostalgic and I need to start playing my Saturn again.
I love when he says like. Seegaaa RALLY!. Soniiiiiiiiiic JAM!
Reminds me of "Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidge Racer!"
Great Collection and great 3 videos loved it!
deep down I wish Sega had been able to remain in the hardware race at microsoft's expense. They made beautiful music with capcom during the saturn/dreamcast days
But don't you want to spend $50 on the latest 2K, Madden, and CoD, regardless of the fact that you know for a fact that said $50 is going down the shitter because there's just going to be a new one the next year I mean it's basketball and football so it's not like the only possible difference between the $50 you just spent and the $50 you're going to spend is in graphics and new guns alone besides that would be totally worth it rightrightright it's also not like one could turn on a TV and watch the SAME GODDAMN THING for free.
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? You don't? You think that story, music, character development, and general whimsy make a good game?You'reafuckinggayassnerdididyourmom.
I hate middle schoolers.
Eggscramblercomms LoL I like how you just pointed out why the xbox brand hasn't changed gaming for the better. I would take Sega's games over EA poop any day of the week.
unstoppableExodia I'd take almost any game company's games over EA's garbage though. Would be really nice to play a new Sega console, or just had some major new releases on the Dreamcast.. like Shenmue III :)
***** amen to that
I dunno how I got onto your video but you've got a pretty neat Saturn collection. I've been collecting PAL Saturn for years but I've had to stop 'cause of how expensive these games are over here. Right on with most of your opinions on these games dude but seriously; Cyber Speedway and Crime Wave are a big plate of bollocks.
I've bought my first Sega Saturn MK1 today!!! Yuppie!!! With VF2 and two controllers! paid 70$ for it ;-( (this console wasn't and isn't very popular in Poland - that is why the price is high). Anyway, great collection of brilliant games, Alpha!!! Congrats!!!
Dude. If you have a Sega Genesis, then you should do a collection video on it! I never really was a Sega Saturn fan (but then again I never played it). All in all good video, very well done.
Use rubbing alcohol and a Qtip to clean the lens on your sega saturn guns. It may help you restore their playability. Use a standard tv from the 90s. I bought a gun for Saturn and it works great
The music in VF 2 is EPIC and aged very well ...
Also a couple of days ago I went into a local Pawn shop and they had a copy of Myst without the booklet for $3.99. I plan on gettning a Saturn so I took it as a sign. Ah the videogame Gods have smiled on me yet again.
Did you know that Shining Force 3's story was suppose to be spread across three different scenarios, effectively making you have to buy three different games to get the whole story? The only reason why the US and UK version of Shining Force 3 gave you any sense of closure was cause they changed the ending and hoped we wouldn't find out. People are still working hard as hell to make a translation patch for all three games so we can at least have it all in english on emulators.
RE! once again your description is spot on.
PS. (Sry for consecutive posts I comment as I watch)
Nice vid, dude! I miss Sega. They're Sammy now but, its awesome to see another Virtual On fan. I got to play the arcade version in Salt Lake at a Nickel Arcade that has dual sticks to play the game with. HOLY FRIGGIN CRAP! You haven't experienced Virtual On unless you've played it on an Arcade, Dual Mission sticks are AWESOME! Wish I had Panzer Dragoon Saga. My bro does though.
I recently picked up the Street fighter vs. X-men import for the Saturn. Oh my god, is brilliant.
I currently only have two games for the Saturn, I think its an awesome system. I really need to work on building up my collection.
hay Alpha its time to do an updated collection vid
i have to admit i loved Bug. Other than that a great Video Alpha
Great to see someone showing love for the Saturn. However, I think your videos would be helped tremendously by including in-game footage from each title that you mention. Further, you're not saying very much about any of the games on your list, just that you like them a lot. No need to do a full review, but you should think of three points or so to cover for each game, to help explain why you like each one and what helps make it stand out from the crowd.
Jason X Would take alot of time to do i think when hes showing off so many games. Also i don't think he want to get copyright claims.
Hey alpha i have been watching you for a while. I really enjoy your content although i miss these kind of video. Just curious how long did it take you to build your collection once you really took off? Did you buy in bulk? Also Keep up the great work man!
Cool video, some classics there, but also some that I don't have, like Shining Force, I will check those out thanks to you.
Just got a boxed Saturn and now am buying games so I can play the damn thing. BTW Devils Crush Theme in the intro FTW that is a great TG16 game.
@KiiraTheHedgehog
you should get a hold of it when you can, the little 3d hub world is a bunch of fun, i had a blast with it. plus they have little missions you can do in it too so its not just for the hell of it and running around. depressing cause it would have been even more awesome to see sega make an entire sonic game for the saturn back then. honestly i think that would have helped it sell alot more outside of japan. kinda like how it did for the genesis/mega drive
BUG! your description is awesome!.
my fave on the Saturn is FIREPRO WRESTLING SIX MAN SCRAMBLE. these some good shmups too!
You've got a NetLink Edition of Virtual On. Cool. Sega were so ahead of their time
Oh wow! Sonic Jam is the only Sonic Saturn game I haven't played. I can't find it anywhere at this point x_X It's a must have.
Sonic R is one of my fav games of all times.
My Favorite game is shining force
@JASONMOORE87
yeah the sales pretty much were crap everywhere cept japan, which is also the reason why they had a slew of kick ass games and the import market boomed so much for that system, still does ironically since the saturn had many exclusives and on top of that some of the most perfect arcade conversions back in the day.
Why thank you :D
Yeah sometimes can be kinda rough especially if you fuck up saying something or get something wrong but if not then it's all good
awsome system love my saturn nice collection
@kyuss015 Hell man the import scene for the Saturn is most definitely amazing but the U.S. selection is genuinely nice. Overlooked by many sadly because of the offerings on PS1 and N64, but still worth checking out. Many exclusive classics too which makes it worth noting alone
I actually disagree with you on Sonic 3D Blast . Once you get used to the controls it's pretty fun. It's no were perfect but fun.
@strykah92
the exclusive monster shows up in one part of the game, so its pretty easy to miss since it shows up once and thats pretty much that. bummed me out cause i thought it wouldve been cool to see it show up in place of some zombies later on when you come back and theres hunters everywhere.
As for it showing up in deadly silence. that i dont believe so cause i played through it twice now and never saw it
did you know that in the PC version of resident evil, you can unlock two weapons for jill and chris. chris gets the M249 machine gun and jill gets the MAC 10 sub machine gun. sadly it is only on the PC version.
I'd love to see a video of your Sega Genesis collection.
There was a vs game on Saturn, Marvel vs Streetfighter was on it but only in Japan. Saturn was awesome for fighting games...
Fuck, I remember Shining the Holy Ark. That Desert Puzzle had me stumped for days.
Why did the Saturn fail... why did people reject it's obvious greatness!
I had Virtual On, Sonic Jam is my all time favorite pseudo game....Besides playing Sonic 3 + Knuckles (my actual all-time favorite game), i spent so much time watching the videos in the 3D world's museums, and listening to the music, and looking at the pictures....the Sonic series has the best music for me, hands down.
Had Sonic R (meh), had Shining the Holy Ark.....only Shining Force series game I ever actually played, but I never beat it because I got hopelessly stuck in that one Forest Mansion...
Sonic 3D Blast is a forgettable game, but that soundtrack, i've grown to love it as like the best game soundtrack ever for me; Volcano Valley (both acts) has become a top favorite vgmusic theme for me.
NiGHTS....ugh, one of the best gaming experiences for me. I loved seeing it in action at Toys R Us and i loved playing it (even had Christmas NiGHTS). the controller they released for NiGHTS is my favorite ever cuz it was so comfortable in my hands.
I wish they'd bring back Psylocke for the fighting games...she would've been cool in UMVC3.
had Galaxy Fight. it was meh. I do have Rolf and Roomi on my MUGEN roster though.
Tony Quigley is lonely.
nice collection alpha
Resident Evil cover is MUCH better for SS. That zombie is a still shot of that first scene when Jill separates from Barry and hit that Zombie chowing down then it looks over his shoulder. Also, gotta love the real FMV actors and actresses. I have Biohazard and the opening scene is BRUTAL. Our version was edited.
Are you going to make a video about the NGP and your thoughts on it? :D
@megaben99 oddly i did not ever know that. kinda neat though, ive seen tons and tons of mods for re on pc so if i saw them i probably just figured it was fan made lol
sucks they didn't include it in director's cut
Whatever possessed you to call Bug mediocre should never possess me... but nah, seriously , good collection man.
I went through and beat 3d blast, it ain't that bad
I miss you dude...HAIL SATHANAS!
i love the part when Urkel replaced the zombie on the front of RE
As a fellow Saturn fan, this is a pretty good (part 1 of your) collection. I must say, though, that I think Shining in the Holy Ark is just as good as Shining Force III, and it's a hell of a lot cheaper. Tekken better than VF? I can't agree there, but different people like completely different styles of fighters. But 2D fighters were definitely better on the Saturn, it's controller is the best fighter pad of all time.
I created my website on the Sega Saturn using the NetLink. Really could accessory they had.
I always heard that many Sega consoles were successful in Brazil? In fact I heard that it took the Megadrive / Genesis a while to take off as people were still into the Master System? I might be completely wrong here.
All three are quality. Will never, ever sell them no matter how bad things get!
Cyber Speedway was actually released a few months before Wipeout. It's not a clone. It does have a very similar feel, but it came out first.
(Also, it's a spiritual sequel to a PC racing game from a few years earlier with a very similar style, CyberRace.)
Also, I love Bug. It's from mid 1995, and is one of the first ever 3d platformers. Jumping Flash predates it, but not much else. It's sort of 2d, sort of 3d, but very interesting and original (still unique!). It's way too hard, but good.
my 1st game was Sonic Jam and iv still got it now 1 of the 1st issues, awsom game, and i actually quite like the sonic 3D Blast aswell i think it was really good
wow you have a good Game Collection not bad!!!
Sega Saturn version of Street Fighter Alpha 2 is the BEST version of Street Fighter of all time! My personal favor!
I just got my sega saturn a few months ago with a light gun, arcade stick, and sega rally. I opened the case and saw that it was the netlink edition in it. Can you still play online with the saturn?
love the intro music.
I have a action reply device for that purpose. Doesn't cost as much to import compared to the Jap Saturn
still have it and the wheel still works, I'm drooling over the net edition Virtual On,still have Nights still love it,that might be my old Cyber speedway ...lol,I got Marvel Vs. Capcom on the saturn import with a translater cartridge,I just looked up some titles I have dang i have $600 to $1k of old games just for the saturn.
The Saturn was a powerful system, more so than the Playstation 1. It had dual RISC processors at 32 bit and CD quality 32 channel sound processor. Saturn also could read instructions faster, quadrilateral rendering, RAM expansion (psx lacked) It was a bitch to program for mainly due to it's development tools and it being too advanced for what was needed at that time for gaming, a bit too premature for some developers liking. Shame really had some awesome games, burning rangers is my fav still!
i really liked tomb raider, sega rally, resident evil, nights, and sonic at the time !
Saturn also had the best 2-D engine of the 3 big systems that was out at the time. If you put it next to the PS1 2-d fighting games, Saturn was noticeable superior. Some good examples would be the Saturn imports of Thunder Force V and Hyper Duel. The import Saturn also had the 4 meg expansion card. There were so many awesome ones that never came out over here like Groove on Fight. Like the later Fatal Fury games, the KOF series, Wakuwaku 7 etc.
Alpha you should do a dreamcast collection, i love that system and im playing the dreamcast as im typing
lol i actually enjoyed sonic 3d blast when i was younger. i haven't played it in years but might after watching this
Depends what you enjoy from a game. Search roms and check reviews on game sites.
I always like unique games that weren't found anywhere and never replicated.
Crusader: No Remorse, Alien Trilogy, D, Loaded, Blast Chamber. Most other games I enjoyed were cross-platform and died down for me after the 4th part. Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Gex.
And on your YT icon, if you have Dreamcast - definitely check out Armada. I found it online but it won't load for me.
Oh yeah Virtual ON, that game kicked ass
i disagree. i've been playing Nights for the wii and its one of the most refreshing games I've played in a good while! i desperately need to get the saturn one next. cheers to bulding my saturn collection! already have greats like Astal and Rayman so im on my way!
yeah back around 1996-97, in Japan, Saturn had like %60 of the market while Nintendo in Japan at that time had like %5 of the market...and then there was the Pokemon explosion.
many people say that if not for Pokemon, There probably would not even been Nintendo anymore..or at least not anything near as big as it is now. A few weeks after N64 came out in Japan, everyone was wanting to take it back. After the newness died out, they were losing out in the console war at that time
Do you own shinobi for the saturn? I love that game, its amazing. Also total destruction is great too. It's nice to see somebody praise the saturn, back in 96, I had a choice, the saturn, or the playstation. Needless to say, street fighter alpha brought me to the saturn. Now we just need a Street Fighter Alphaomega sin. YOur special move would be ranting CapCom haha
I agree that most of the time, Saturn did better than PS1 at 2D fighters. However, in my opinion, Marvel Super Heroes was one exception. The Saturn one had huge slowdown. True, it may have had more frames of animation, but that is not worth the huge slowdown.
Wait how'd u paly a beta resident evil copy!!!!!
japan got marvel vs streetfighter on the saturn its one of my favorite fighters, btw do you have an import collection?
the satur is amazing, but one little thing you got wrong, afterburner preceded after burner climax lol
Bug was hands down the best game on here
@HiroGaems
it does suck that they cost so much now due to their rarity and then on top of that many people didn't take care of them so that dwindles the numbers down even further. i really just wish they could find a way to start releasing them on xbla and psn but apparently sega doesnt have any of the coding to emulate them. dunno how you just lose that kinda stuff, sucks pretty bad
Did you ever rememeber what the series was when you were talking about Virtua Hydlide.
love the collection! I'm noticing how fast my cash is burning on every Saturn game. Any useful hints??? first thing I did was buy to consoles a NA and Japan and now have 8 NA games and 7 Japan games.
