I didn't play any of these in the arcades, so I have to go on what I've played on home consoles.
1. Sexy Parodius - I'm not a huge shoot-em-up fan, hence not choosing some of the other games which will presumably end up as very popular, but the craziness and cuteness of the Parodius series is awesome, and Sexy Parodius is my favourite of the lot.
2. Manx TT - my first Saturn game, years after the Saturn was discontinued, and it's a belter. Only two tracks, and rubber banding from hell, but that doesn't matter, as the challenge is against the clock, rather than the other racers. The best arcade bike racer of all time in my opinion.
3. Die Hard Arcade - don't think this would win too many best game awards, but it's amazing fun, and its faults merely add to its charm.
4. Metal Slug - I love the animation and the wackiness of this series.
5. Neo Turf Masters - only discovered this recently, on the Switch, but it's great.

Yeah, the graphics are terrible. And it feels really clunky to play. The only good point is some of the music is decent.Last edited by Leon Retro; 06-03-2019, 09:51.

It's a shame that the Saturn didn't get games like Pulstar, as I would have been really happy to own it.
