I remember hearing about this but now I dont know where to find one. Anyone know where to get one? Mostly want it for one game. Castlevania NITM.

There's one by Anbernic, but I heard it doesn't run the games flawlessly...

If you have a good phone, check out Saturn.emu
It's relatively new, so it might not be perfect for now, but I heard it's really good.

It's not exactly a portable Sega Saturn, but it is at the same.

There's one called the Sega Uranus.

Probably could get one on aliexpress

Just buy a handheld and run emulators on it.

I wonder why it's so hard to find. Maybe it hasn't been released yet?

I remember a review of a Sega Saturn portable, and the reviewer was shocked to find that it wasn't set up for Sega Saturn emulation out of the box, you had to do some work to get to it. I found it incredibly odd. Was it Madlittle Pixel. Can't remember?

The one i was talking about had 6 buttons on front, like a regular saturn controller.

is it this? https://anbernic.com/products/rgarc-d-rgarc-s

or is it one of those things where they rip out the guts of the system and put it in a 3d printed shell? They have that stuff on AliExpress. Not sure if they have them for Saturn.

Ah the RG ARC. I absolutely love the form factor and screen on this thing, but yeah, it really struggles with Saturn emulation. You can basically only play the 2D stuff, and even then you're depending on the quality of Yaba Sanshiro which is super spotty. It's a shame because this would be the portable Saturn system otherwise.

good to know that it isnt that good before spending alot of money on it. Those ones are the ones i was looking for.

 

[SF Kosmo]

You can put a Pi in the Bandai kit, but it struggles to actually keep up with the emulation. Haven't tried on Pi5 though.

Saturn emulation ran pretty well on my Steam Deck but honestly the gameplay was really hard to get into and dated to me so I didn’t get far enough into Burning Rangers and Nights to tell if they performed well all the way through.

It looks excellent

If they are able to get their hands on a better core (Other then Yaba), and keep this design, it will be perfect.
