Yeah the saturn version is closer to,thanks to it using the 4-meg ram cartridge.The PS1 version has it's share of cuts just to be able to run on the console.

ill have to look into that tron. for some reason, my action replay 4 in 1 cart wont read on my saturn and its the only way I can play imports

does anyone know why this may be? does it only work with certain models of the saturn?

Type out Japan in full or abbreviate it using something like JP.

The Saturn's cart slot is made poorly so this is common.  Not many options,  clean everything and try again repeatedly. There's a multi region bios you can have installed too. Or buy JP Saturn with cart issues.

Tell me more of this multi region bios. Where might I buy one??

The difference between XMen vs SF on PS and SS is so significant, it's like comparing an 80s arcade game ported to both NES and Genesis. The Sony version is so incredibly f*cked up and terrible that you can't even play it the same way. It's a different game and a much worse one. It ain't worth a broke dick. The Saturn version has a *little* bit of slowdown and a few minor issues, but it's otherwise arcade exact. The SS version is one of the greatest arcade ports of all time, the PS one is...there are much worse arcade ports, but mostly for 2600 or NES. The thing sucks.

Give me a second, walking the dog.

Here's 26 pages on ASSEMbler about it

Some of the guys are  Bad_Ad84, Zer0-2k11, and APE who I'd contact. You might see if any of them are doing a battery mod & modchip while your at it.

APE is in California iirc.

Can you summarize what the purpose is of this BIOS?

Will do thank you very much

It allows you to boot out-of-region games without using an action replay cart, which is nice if your saturn has a botched cart slot.  There are also a few games that come with and require their own proprietary carts, and therefore won't work on another region system with action replay.

[synbiosfan]

Can you summarize what the purpose is of this BIOS?

You pop in any region disc (not cd-r) and play. No switches, carts or buttons, just pop in the cd.

Region free period.

If you have a V Saturn or Hi Saturn, you can still have the same start up logo too.

One of the games Venom is referring to is a Ultraman fighter.
