Your favorite Sega Saturn imports?

[Joe Redifer]

As others have said, Castlevania is better is the Playstation.

As for Saturn imports, I like:

X-Men vs Street Fighter
Street Fighter Zero Three
Soukyugurentai
Battle Garegga
Radiant Silvergun
Thunder Force 5

+lots more that I can't recall without looking at my collection.

I don't have this game, but it is the one Saturn import I desperately want and would be jealous of you if you had:

Final Fight Revenge

I love Final Fight and I love Sega Saturn, it seems like a natural fit.  I just don't wanna pay $150 for it, so I've held back.  If I ever find this game cheap, I will be a very happy man!

[Opethian]

Final Fight Revenge is a fighting game. It not very good (to capcom standards I think). I Dont know why its priced so high? Maybe low production numbers since it didnt sell very well?? heh

It was one of the last Saturn games, it also requires that infernal 4 meg cart that can be a challenge to get to work due to the Saturn's notoriously terrible cartridge slot.

[Joe Redifer]

As far as I know it was THE last official Saturn game released.  It was programmed in the US but released only in Japan.  It does run at a constant 60fps.  I have it on CD-R but that's it.

Princess Crown
Cyberbots
Radiant Silvergun
Silhoutte Mirage
Grandia
Cotton 2
Xmen vs Street Fighter
MSH vs SF
Vampire Savior
Langrisser Tribute
Dungeons and Dragons Collection
Tenchi O Kurau II
Salamander Deluxe Pack
Parodius Da Deluxe Pack

[Joe Redifer]

Ah yes, Vampire Savior.

I also greatly enjoyed Parodius Forever With You.  I have Silhouette Mirage and I don't really find much redeeming value in it, not that I am looking to sell it or anything.

Dude...wake up. Don't let high prices draw your attention to a game. FF Revenge is GARBAGE. The Saturn is one of the best fighting systems ever and FFR is tied for last place with a few others. Utter garbage.

I can't believe I forgot Vampire Savior. Its like $10 or something and utterly fantastic.

Some of the pictures that flash when you get hurt can be funny.  I just love the hapless look on the face in the first two pics:







But yeah, the game is crap.  Here is some 60fps video at 240p (320x240) of me playing it on my Saturn.  You can see how the game is pretty much crap:

Windows Media - 16.1 MB

Quicktime - 16.6 MB

I doubt I'll be uploading these (or something longer) to Yout00b unless there is a complete dearth of FFR video there.

Castlevania SotN (just for the Saturn exclusive content)
SALAMANDER DELUXE PACK!
Sexy Parodius
All Saturn Lunars
Rockman/Megaman X3
Dungeons and Dragons Collection

And the awesomely bad Final Fight Revenge. I thought it was an alright game, the humorous vibe the game gives is offsetting from other FF games.

The Saturn Lunar's aren't a bad pick except for the fact if you're in the US, there are nearly identical versions for Playstation that are in English. Except for Magic School, which isn't a great game to begin with.

The Saturn Symphony of the Night... well.. it's bad. Playing as Maria is cool but the extra areas were poorly designed tack on areas.

The last Saturn game was Yuukyuu Gensoukyoku Hozonban Perpetual Collection. Came out about 9 months after Final Fight Revenge.

[SignOfZeta]

Yeah, the end of the Saturn was like the end of the DC. Tons of galget garbage ported from Windows. Actually, it was worse since the DC got a bunch of shooters at the end too, and Puyo Puyo 4.

As for Castlevania, yeah. I'd put up with the Saturn version just for Maria if she wasn't so LAME. She's not much like the Rondo version.

[DragonmasterDan]

The slowdown, the choppiness, there's a lot of other irritants with the Saturn version, it's just a sloppy sloppy port.

Agreed i have the saturn port as well.Though mostly for collection sake while it's fun to use maria it's realy a bad port.Now if konami,took the time and build the game from the ground up for the ss it could have been much better.
