bought a saturn

[ATOMICMAN]

what games should i get?

im more into rpg/adventure games.

[Veovis]

If you're into platformers as well, Nights Into Dreams will be recommended by everyone, but only if you've got the cash for it. Other than that, I don't know much about the Saturn, I just recently got mine as well.

[PeglegJimmy]

Well I've never owned a Saturn but I know Panzer Dragoon is a great game you should like. (rpg)

[ATOMICMAN]

yeah i got panzer dragoon and some other games ive never heard of. nights is at the top of my list. but beyond that im lost.

Defiantly get NiGHTS!

But you need that special controller to get the whole feeling of the game play it brings.

Should have all of what your looking into and other popular saturn titles as well. Yes, and get Nights into Dreams by all means, I played a demo of it that came with a friend's Saturn and it was a blast.

yeah i tried nights when saturn first came out, that was a great game. i just got the system and i found a game im liking called space hulk, kind of a first person ation/stratagy game, very addicting.

thanks for all the help so far =)

I think only Saga was an RPG. I know the first wasnt, haven't played the second.

Albert Oddessey is good for rpg's

I just got me a Saturn also, an old one too.

When I saw the manufaturing dates on Wikipedia (Which I've edited the date)

Here it is from wikipedia



[edit] North American models
All North American models are black in color and were produced by Sega.

Model Type of Buttons Manufacturing Period Notes

This right here originally said 7/95. Mine was built in June
\/
MK-80000 Oval 6/95 – 3/96 Identical to the Grey Japanese Saturn but for color: the U.S. model is black.

MK-80000A Round 3/96 – 9/96 Features a notched power cord, no drive access light and a 1.00a BIOS. Internal jumper locations are changed.

MK-80001 Round 7/96 – 98 Similar in appearance to the MK-80000A, this machine has some changed internal jumper locations.

Early models came packaged with a redesigned controller that was slightly bigger than the Japanese variant. Eventually the Japanese controller was adopted. This was similar to how the Microsoft Xbox controller ended up, with a redesigned smaller version being released.



But yeah I'm just picking up games as I find them, not really going out of my way to buy them. All I have for it is a Golf game (So I can play Back-ups using the swap meathod, but Back-ups are a pain in the ass to burn) and Gex (2d one) The 3d N64 ones used to be some of my favorite games when I was younger, yet they were reviewed so poorly.

if you're going to play "backups" you might as well get a modchip. The swap trick is death on the motor and it will wear out way too quick.

mod chips for saturns arent easy to find though
