Definitely. That's when the 3d revolution happened. Sega's Yu Suzuki was putting out hit after hit of course staring in the mid to late 80's with Space Harrier and OutRun and peaked in the 90's with Virtua Racing, Virtua Fighter, Daytona USA.


I absolutely loved Virtua Fighter and Virtua Racing. I want to get a Sega Saturn just for those two games (but can't actually justify the cost).


Yes Sega was ridiculous with the Saturn's price and its surprise launch. You can pick up a Saturn for pretty cheap(~$60) now if you are still interested and those games are dirt cheap. If you do get a Saturn then also get yourself the scart RBG cables and a scart to HDMI converter if your screen doesn't support scart(if you're in the US then it doesn't). This would give you the best picture.


I know it is cheap now but I just can't justify keeping it around (and I know my wife would hate it). I would love to get all the old Sega consoles such as Sega CD, Saturn and Dreamcast.


I hear you. The only Sega home console I dont own is the Genesis. I had an opportunity to own one with a box load of games for it and the Sega CD but I took it for granted that it would always be available. It was in a relatives basement. Unfortunately mother nature taught me a less on sitting on things too long and the basement got flooded when a storm hit a few years ago.


Saturn and Dreamcast emulation are pretty good these days, so you can relive all these games if you are so inclined.


Interesting. I would love to get that as well as a dreamcast and saturn controller to play the games as they were intended.


Yeah SSF is the only great Saturn emulator but I guess all you need it one.
