SEGA Saturn -- simple yet elegant
Is it me, or is the Saturn just a gorgeous-looking system? Venus herself would be jealous SEGA didn't name a console after her.
Couldn't help but notice while dusting
If you guys aren't too busy, be sure to read this. Well, maybe you shouldn't

Re: SEGA Saturn -- simple yet elegant
The lines on the system make it gorgeous. Also, the system is elegant in engineering, too; the system is almost impossible to make overheat, and it doesn't even have a fan!
Re: SEGA Saturn -- simple yet elegant
I am brand new to the Saturn having and I am quite smitten.
I especially love the ease of access for the action replay.

Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Re: SEGA Saturn -- simple yet elegant
Definitely the coolest game system ever IMO. Well, coolest looking I actually think the model 1 looks slightly better but it can't be modded very easily >_> Heheh XD
I also really like the way the 3DO looks (the motor tray one). Total beast.

Yeah, sometimes I'll be looking at it from my couch and I can't see it. It's like a Ninja. Sega Saturn Forever.
Careful with that cartridge slot! the Saturn's only weakness...

Re: SEGA Saturn -- simple yet elegant
The one I was given the other day looks like the cartridge slot has never been touched. I figure I put the action replay in and never take it out again - should be a-okay.

Re: SEGA Saturn -- simple yet elegant
I was never aware of the Saturn's cart slot issue. I only bought the system a couple of weeks ago and it came with a GameShark. Never had an interest in these type of add-ons, but it has 4megs of extra backup memory. I haven't gotten it to work yet ... I'm a little worried something might be wrong with the cart slot.
Re: SEGA Saturn -- simple yet elegant
The original Saturn is just sexy, in my opinion. The model 2 with the round buttons doesn't even come close.
I prefer this one over the western released black Saturn.

Wedge a q-tip in between the back of the cartridge and the top of the slot. It should put the card forward enough to make the connection. Works for me almost every time.

One of the best looking and most durable CD based 90s systems. I'll never give mine up.
