Title: Want to buy: Japanese Saturn
Post by: m1savage on May 08, 2008, 01:55:28 AM
I want to play through the Saturn version of Anearth Fantasy Stories to see how similar it is to the PC Engine version. I already own the game so now just need a Saturn to play it on. Looking for a complete system with controller, cords, etc. I know almost nothing about the Saturn systems themselves but figured some of you could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Do you have a US or PAL Saturn?  All you need is a simple import cartridge.  The
Pro Action Replay 4MB Auto  (PAR 4mb), will boot imports, play most 1mb and 4mb
RAM expansion games (like X-Men VS Street Fighter), gives you additional save
game space, and even has cheat abilities.

Getting a JP Saturn is nice (I've got three of them myself), but its not needed
by most people.  Especially if you are just starting out with Saturn imports.

I have several dual region Saturn that I don't need -- a black US saturn with a region switch that'll allow you to play either US or JP games without any converters.

PM me if you're interested.

I would reccommend you get a jp saturn if you only have a pal system.. the 17.5% extra speed and full screen 60hz makes a huuuuge difference in enjoyment! :o
