Saturn Emulators?

Retr0gamer · 2003-07-14 15:20:29

I still can't believe that this console hasn't been emulated decently yet. Does anyone know what the status of the saturn emulation scene and why it still isn't well emulated yet.

Just buy a saturn, chip it (relatively simple by anyones standards) and get some iso's from the net. I remember coming across quite a few sites and p2p iso's, and i'm sure theres a scene out there somewhere that maintains a nice collection.

there is one that was released by sega and was ripped by some "nice" folk. it playes almost all games flawlessly. the problem being that its illegal to use and radiant silvergun wont run at full speed(about 90% though)even on my new fancy 2.5ghz computer.

i cant seem to get it to boot in satourne which does have the advantage of using hardware rendering support.

I was under the impression that the emulator sega released in japan for "renting" the games, which was soon backwards engineered, only supported a few games. I never really looked into it, i'm assuming they updated it or...i'm just wrong
