RKMBs Forums .::Robegories::. Games and Tech SEGA SATURN games

I only recently discovered that SEGA SATURN emulation on the PC has come a long way. There's no hardware acceleration enhancement yet so 3D games are going to look pixinilitated, but majority of the good games on the Saturn are 2D so there's no problem. Compatibility is good and I guess speed is also no longer a problem (I'm the guy with a PC that can't run The Sims 2 at decent speeds).

Some of the good games I found at snesorama.us:

1. Guardian Heroes - I have this one for the GBA but the gba version sucked balls due to the frequent slowdowns and small sprites. The Saturn version had no slowdowns at all, and the sprites are big and animate really well.

2. Firepro Wrestling: Six Man Tag - JLA might like this one. It's said to be the best version of the 2D Firepro series prior to the one on the Dreamcast. Personally, I like Firepro Wrestling G on the PSX simply because it had more characters that I can recognize.

3. Dragonball Z Legends - it's a crappy game on the PSX, but the Saturn version is LESS crappy. It had more colors and the animation is smoother.

4. CAPCOM's 2D fighters - I use MAME so the "arcade-perfect port" shit is pretty much lost on me (the music quality is better though, Satuan has CD quality audio while most of the CPS qsound games only produce 22050 khz stereo). Also, the VS series (Xmen VS SF to Marvel vs SF) are not crippled like they were in the PSX ports (PSX ports don't allow you to change between the two chosen characters in the middle of the round)

5. SONIC R - I don't know why people hated this game. It's a kart game with Sonic sprites and controls, but it's still a fun game. Nice colors and plenty of unlockables. My only complaint is that listening to the soundtrack made me grow a vagina.

Can't you play all this stuff on the Wii?

I don't know, you never bought me a Wii.

But son, you're getting something so much better this christmas:



It comes with 1,001 games in ONE cartridge! That's HUNDREDS of different sprites!

Now I know the true meaning of Christmas!

Wicked, the true meaning of Christmas only cost me 5,000 pesos. Best dad ever.

Try Nights into Dreams, Spot, Blazing Heroes, and Croc.

a real dad would have got his kid this:

That was too expensive, I'm not spending close to ten dollars in a fucking kid.

Unlike G-man, who would gladly spend that amount in fucking a kid.

I would fuck G-man for 30 bucks. 350 if I need to pretend like I'm enjoying it.

Brandt can't watch though.

I bet that dude wouldn't even notice it if someone stole a game or two...

I bet he's never stepped on that exercise bike either.

Sega, piffle! When am I at last going to get my burrito emulator?

Poncharillo!

shh! don't scare him

Poncharillo?! Where? Oh no! Gotta go!

Fuck off!

Nicely done...
