There isn't really a good site around for us saturn collectors which is a shame. But there is this one, which i occasionally use for reference:

www.sega-saturn.com

I know it's pretty ****, but then you'll have an idea of what we have when it comes to websites...ft:

I usually use Sega Gaga Domain. It has a whole heap of stuff with box art etc and has resulted in me buying a lot of JP Saturn stuff.

Afraid so....but i haven't done a recent count or anything...

I'm a huge SS collector, but am concentrating on my PAL collection at the moment. I'm hoping to complete it and then i'll start with the Jap games, but i don't think i'll try for the complete collection...

The trouble is that most of the SS sites that were around were taken offline quite a while ago. It'll just take one crazy collector to dedicate his time to creating a SS library on the net.....hmmm that's an idea...

Segagaga is an excellent site...as it is our owned by a fellow forum member and friend 'Yakumo'

Hats off to him, as he's taken the time to catalogue his personal collection...mind you he has the largest Jap SS collection i've ever seen..

Well i wouldn't be surprised if it was more than that...

[trev1976]

yeah i wouldnt be surprised either , maybe yakumo could do a complete list one day with photos :P only kidding but that would be cool

[smallvillex]

Yakumo will probably end up with every game ever made on it...in the near future...

[trev1976]

i hope so , apart from the AES i think the saturn and DC are the best console's around , well when i get my AES collection finished off (only 4 more games i want but damn there expensive) ill start on the saturn and post some pics in the yakumo thread here

[smallvillex]

Finished off...how many games have you got....

I usually use Sega Gaga Domain.

It's a good wee site that. I liked his thoughts on Radiant Silvergun:

"The most over hyped Shooter in history finally gets a place in my collection for the hefty sum of 15?000 yen (Bought November 2004) which is quite a lot when most used shooters peak at 5000 yen.

I?m sure that most of you know about Radiant Silvergun but just incase you don?t let me tell you a little about it. Radiant Silvergun is by Treasure, one of the most praised software houses in the world. So much so that even their standard games receive praise beyond belief which brings me to the point that I can't understand. Why do some people have so much love for this game? I admit that Radiant Silvergun is a good shooter but the way some people react you?d expect it to be the ultimate game that no other can touch. I?m 100% positive that if this game was made by a no mark company then nobody would give a **** about it or not as much as they do now because it?s made by Treasure."

That guy is spot on with such comments, plus it made me laugh.

I've virtually completed my personal Jpn Saturn collection - I have about 25 titles, a couple more on the way & a handful more to source & then I'm done.

Great machine
