Lets Buy a saturn

[radtastic89]

I'm going to be buying a Sega Saturn in the next few days. I'm wondering what are some of the best Import games to buy for it?

I just bought a Saturn myself. Boxed w/ manual in near mint condition, by the looks of it. Includes imports too.

I'm sure there are lots of fighters, SHMUPs, and RPGs worth a look.

Yes I know some to look out for but not all. I'm also going to pick up the Sega Ages games and Capcom Generations 1-4.

Just bought a Sega Saturn model 1 off Ebay today. I got it as is so it doesn't have any of the chords and the seller didn't know if it worked or not. I paid $5 for it so I really hope it works.

If not would you guys help me fix it up? What are some of the most common issues for a Saturn that doesn't work?

Wow, $5 is really good, even if it doesn't work. I've read that the spindle sometimes depresses with use, or the laser might be worn out. Either case should result in a disc read error. Fortunately, both are easy fixes.

Got my own Saturn recently. Really nice condition. Came region modded, so I unmodded it. Only came with 2D fighters. I've got to find myself a copy of NiGHTS.

Just went onto Racketboy and bought the chords, battery, and 4 in 1 card. I will let you guys know how it works out when I get all the stuff.

So surprisingly all the stuff I ordered plus the Saturn came today. I unboxed it pluged it in and..... I got video! Now I don't have a controller yet so I couldn't go any further then the language setting. I also put a disc in to see if it would spin and it did.
