I own an N64, PS1 and Sega Saturn. The Sega Saturn has like 3 decent games and some good light gun games. That's it. I barely touch my Saturn.
The PS1 has a huge library of games ranging from good to amazing.
The N64 has about a dozen gems and its games are very unique.
The Saturn just kinda sucks. And I say that as someone who loves Sega and wants to love the Saturn.

N64 and Saturn both offer the definitive 5th gen experience together, best 3D and best 2D respectively.

And tell me, dear anon. Which of these games have you played in the last decade for more than an hour each?
>Guardian Heroes
Awful. Some of the worst mechanics in a video game, ever.
>DragonForce
Baby's first strategy game. Absolutely eclipsed by any Koei strategy game.
>Radiant Silvergun
lmao
>Never played it
>Nights
Overrated trash.
>PD2
Good. One of the few decent games in this list.
>Silhouette Mirage
lmao
>Grandia
JRPGslop. Good if you like them, bad if you don't (I don't).
>Bulk Slash
Pretty cool.
>Sega Rally
Soulless racingslop.
>Elevator Action Returns
Pretty good.
>Megaman X4
Better on other consoles.
>Daytona USA
Soulful racingslop. The best on the Saturn.
>Virtua Cop 2
Good.
>Gungriffon
Mid.

Sega Rally absolutely had soul, and it was one of the best rally racers when it came out.

Of course by 1998, when the Saturn was dead and the PSX was in its prime, you could get tons of way better racers on the PSX. Sega Rally had what, five levels and two cars and that was it?

There is something there for the Saturn, it's just that Sega dropped the ball for it in America.

Hard to have a positive general Saturn thread because of all its issues people love bringing up which inevitably leads to shitflinging, plus negative threads simply get more traction regardless of topic
And it's also hard to have (lasting) threads dedicated to a single Saturn game unless it's a new fan translation release. The Sakura Wars 2 thread was the best Saturn-related thread in a while

Even when I want to play obscure fun games I usually choose PS1 over Saturn. Invasion from beyond, destrega, spider, grudge warriors, popn tanks, azito 3, bishi bashi special. Even the Japanese exclusives are usually funner. At one point I thought Johnny bazookatone was a Saturn exclusive but it's not only on PS1 but DOS as well. I used to think blast chamber was a PS1 exclusive but it's also on Saturn, I tend to play the Saturn version more for no specific reason, despite me having it on PS1 as a kid. Kutto keto is also a multiplat I thought was Saturn only.

Seireki 1999 is the Japanese version of Powerslave. It's identical to the US version except for the name, Japanese voice acting, and the fact that they give you 5 more bombs and cobra shots.

NiGHTS is the most sovlful game ever made. It took me a second playthrough to realize that but it is soooo good and made me feel. Not a system seller but God damn I will never forget the NiD experience and I thank Sega for that.
