I remember when I first saw Dead or Alive running in an import shop in London. Although it wasn't quite as astonishing as seeing VF2 for the first time on the Saturn, as it really was a huge step up in graphics from VF1. People didn't think the Saturn could run something like that - and it was in a really high interlaced resolution. Both games show what the Saturn can do.

Another great vid. Just glad I've got the XB version, now I wanna play it!!!
I have a weird experience. I got my PAL Saturn back in late 1995 from the Argos I was working at over Xmas, it came with an RGB SCART cable and I got a battered copy of VF Remix on the cheap from Gamestation as my first game. It looked ACE on the big Mitsubishi telly downstairs through the RGB cable but my bedroom telly had no SCART socket...so....so....I traded in said RGB SCART cable for a friggin' crappy RF lead instead and played my Saturn through that!!
Talk about ignorant!!!!

Yes it was!
There was even a NES sequel with the same character, Johnny Thomas, but all of the relations are weak, at best!
Finally, you probably all know Vigilante is a loose sequel, but there was a "Super Kung-Fu Master/Spartan X 2/Beyond Kung-Fu" made but never released! (Skip to about 1:22)

Not that this is a uniquely Japanese trait, what with the many people walking around in the UK with Chinese tattoos that say "chicken-fried rice".
