>every game above a 6/10 was ported to the 6th gen or was available on playstation>odes are cheap as chips but theres no games worth playingadmit it, theres no reason to own a saturn
Literally the best controller ever
Everyone who uses the argument of "ports of its games came out in later generations therefore the originals never counted and the fun you had was fake" is a zoomer moron who deserves a special kind of torture. Specially because such people are console warrior hypocrites with an agenda who never apply said criteria to games from a certain manufacturer. OoT is forever to remain a N64-exclusive gem despite getting constant re-releases and even native PC ports, but Saturn Panzer Dragoon was a mirage and never existed in 1995 because somehow Switch owners can play it 30 years after the fact.
>>11994390thinly veiled rec thread get out while you still can
>>11994416maybe I should have instead said "buy", to clear up any confusion however I figured speaking in the present tense would have cleared up the confusion. You're allowed to have fun on it I'm simply claiming theyve been outclassed in every regardAlso idgaf about switch owners I clarified ps1 or 6th gen consoles. Panzer Dragoon was ported to the Xbox and PS2. Of course I appreciate playing on original hardware if possible but that alone isnt enough to warrant buying a system
>>11994416Not retro
>>11994390I like it for JP import SHMUPs. Every western top 10 list is garbage though. Guardian Heroes is absolute trash (I say this as a fan of beat em ups), Panzer Dragoon is overrated, Astal fucking sucks, etc. It really got fucked in the west. But as a SHMUP machine it's great.
>>11994390>>11994480Also Virtua Cop and House of the Dead are great if you have a CRT.
Ahem
>>11994480Absolutely basedAgreed with everything (haven't played Astal tough)
>>11994390That's a problem I'm seeing when looking at recommendations for Sega systems in general. It seems like half of their best games are arcade ports, which probably was super cool back then to play these games at home, but now that I can just emulate arcade games it feels like half of what I'd want to emulate on a Sega system I'd rather fire up MAME for it instead.
Saturn is both underated by normies and overated by hipster It's a very good console but pale in comparaison to the PS1The best games of the Saturn also released on PS1 (Rayman,Grandia,Tomb raider, Exhumed...)
>>11994480Maybe I'd appreciate the system more if I was into shmups, but I'm not the type of person to be able to play games for hours and hours unless I'm following a story. >>11994482I'll consider getting an universal lightgun sometime, they seem pretty fun :)>>11994535I would agree with you however the dreamcast library is insane in terms of action and jrpgs
>>11994489This game is a meme. The ads were unironically better than the game kek
>>11994556>but I'm not the type of person to be able to play games for hours and hours unless I'm following a story.Yeah, the Saturn is a gameplay machine. There are hardly any good games with decent stories on it, but there are plenty of great games with great gameplay.
>>11994556>I would agree with you however the dreamcast library is insane in terms of action and jrpgsJ-RPG ?The Dreamcast is extremely limited in that regard ,only 2 games are worth mentionning (Skies of Arcadia,Grandia 2)
>>11994535Sometimes home ports of arcade titles add cool features, or they make interesting compromises to work on weaker hardware. In rare cases, they can even be flat out better than the arcade originals. That's why I'm willing to try them, anyway.
>>11994570Theres plenty of great JP import RPGs. The two you named are very traditional JRPGs but if you use the term a little more loosely theres a lot waiting for you. It shares a lot of releases with the PS2 and Gamecube however.

>>11994605unfortunately the PS1 version was better, even with the 2 new areas
>>11994390I love the smell of poorfag zoomer seething in the summer>>11994445>maybe I should havenot copeposted
>>11994618seething over.... the saturn not having games?are you hearing yourself?
>>11994390>>every game above a 6/10 was ported to the 6th gen or was available on playstationWhy is it that it's always Playstation fans that start anti Saturn threads?
>>11994637The Saturn has plenty of games. You're seething because you can't afford a single one.>are you hearing yourself?No. I'm not talking and there are no voices in my head talking to me. Are you seething because the voices in your head are telling you to?
If you owned the superior white or grey sega saturn then you had a real sega saturn. Not the shit that the black one was with 40% of its library missing.
>>11995221I've been playing JP Saturn games on my US Saturn since the 90s
No reason to own a ps1 when ps2 exists
>>11994390For the longest time, I didn't even know now the Saturn even existed. I thought Sega went from Genesis to Dreamcast. I bought one a few years ago when I got into retro collecting, and I really have no idea to games to even play on it. I only use it to see the difference between PS1 ports. I do wish the cart slot could play Genesis games tho.
>>11994390I'm still happy to have mine, since the system provided so much fun and great memories in its day. While I couldn't afford the new systems, it is nice others can still enjoy the great games, I am perfectly fine enjoying playing games on the Saturn. Besides, since I couldn't afford the internet to stream the games, it is more practical and cost effective for me to play on local hardware.
>>11994390arcade perfect ST-V games, I wish the ODEs could play the ST-V versions
>>11994668terminally insecure due to their brand being dead now. no sega or nintendo thread is safe.
>>11995513Based
>>11994489Deep Fear is great
>>11995496Got a Skelton Saturn with the controller new in back back when Saturn stuff was super cheap. The Saturn itself is still in my parents basement, I really gotta bring it home one day.The Saturn I use now has a Fenrir ODE and I use a Bluetooth adapter with a M30 controller. Really love this setup. Right now my Fenrir is booting Pseudo Saturn Kai but I kinda want to go back to the regular menu. Also got to get around to FRAM modding my Saturn to keep my saves safe. I got the chip already I just gotta get around to doing it, might as well recap my Saturn as well.Shinrei Jusatsushi Taroumaru just got an English patch, gotta give that a try soon as well.
>>11995679>mfw Sega cucked PCfags with a downgraded version of the game
>>11995234ps1 has ODEs like xstation and psio
>>11995696your setup looks awesome, could you post a full pic?
>>11994480>SHMUP in all capsFaggot poser alert
>>11995960Here are all my consoles, the CRT is over to the left of the picture
>>11996306Clean your shit you lazy faggot
>>11996306ngl bruv, shit do be looking kinda gay but only because you have them assorted by manufacturers instead of stacking them on top of each other by size. Essentially making a gaming pyramid, top loaders can safely be placed in the trash where they belong.
>>11994390Think again, loser.
>>11996485stacking consoles looks claustrophobic as hell, i think they look just fine as is. although im not sure why theyd have their consoles seperate from the crt
>>11994582>In rare cases, they can even be flat out better than the arcade originalsThat only happens when the arcade version is a prototype and the devs had the idea to release it for a console in the first place, like tekken or soul calibur.
>>11996306There seem to be some consoles in your dust collection, anon.
sega cd is more worthless than a saturn
>>11996982no shit, ones an addon made collectors piece and the others a whole new console, plus genesis ODEs play CD games
>>11996962What about NES Contra?

>>11997149I was replying to >>11994541and >>11994416 has a very valid pointand every PS2 game can be emulated on a medium android phone for free, on that basis no console from Wii down is worth owning.
>>11996971I really do gotta dust more often, I never had fist problems like I've had in this house.
>>11997149Why are Sony fans like this?
>>11997149Consider playing them on a PS2 so you can fall in love with Sega Saturn games.
>>11996306damn, look at how much dust they are all collecting.
>>11997149Nights on ps2 is sadly an outsourced port to China and the controls are totally different/worse. A shame, I own the boxed edition with the book and all.Panzer Dragoon Sega Ages is a better one, made by the original team. But PD Zwei remains Saturn exclusive to this day, same as Saga.Just deal with the fact Saturn is very much worth owning.
>>11997223i couldn't give less of a shit if it was on ps, xbox dreamcast or xbox im just stating objective facts here >>11997216not retro
>>11997227Alright I get it, I'll dust when I get off work.
>>11997124>the Capcom fighters and Lobotomy titles were indisputably better on Saturn than PS1Well lobotomy developper don't think that way https://www.unseen64.net/2015/03/09/interview-brian-mcneely-lobotomy-software/"Although the final PlayStation layouts were slightly more confined overall, they were also more refined and had better balance in my opinion. The process of revising the levels presented the chance to add more polish to the flow and pacing of the game."+Putting Sonic jam on your list is patheticI don't need to put FF6 and chrono trigger on the PS1 list of noteworthy games
>>11997227>>11996971>>11996435Ok I dusted, will you guys stop bullying me now. Also, don't wanna hear crap over the Ikea table. It's not dirty it's just beat to hell.
