Ah, makes sense, though CIB is over 200.
You know, I'm actually trying to play these games more as I did play some on Dreamcast.

This is gross, JP version is $190 cheaper.

It's $200 now? It was $150 in December...
Yes, CIB wise.

Oh, I don't really count what Amazon sells games for, usually, I go by eBay auctions.
One of which ended yesterday at $156 or so, so okay, it's still... "sane", I guess.
Although I'm amused by the guy trying to sell a copy of the Japanese game for $200 BIN.

I don't use ebay auctions at all personally.
Over 300 bucks for CIB of that game? Wait a minute, since when did that game have a price like that in CIB???

Oh god, what happened? Why the games I still really want?
That's crazy, copies have sold for under $200 in March, I bought a nice CIB copy about 5 months ago for $160.
Must be impatient / foolish people blowing their tax refund.

I'd prefer not to, but it's frequently cheaper an option to be patient and snipe an auction than to opt for Buy It Now or Amazon.
That said, it gives me butterflies in my stomach like nothing else, since the timing is rather tight and there's still plenty of room for somebody to outbid me.

literally my exact guess, yeah
and i recall missing a CIB for $120 in february, so you know this shit is silly...but watch, it'll be perceived as that much for a while, at least till people stop paying it. looks like that one got away, at least for a while to come!
speaking of: just saw Panic! on sega-cd go for $90+...so much for recommending that one to people as a fun, cheap non-sequitor thing
I see that one with these sort of BIN, but I never thought people would actually be paying these ridiculous prices.

I have found some really good deals by sorting BIN to Newly Listed. Some people just want to dump and not play with auctions.

if you can get it for a fair price: yay
it took a beating in the day & people mock the cutscenes, but it's legit! if you've got the double-jump down from Revenge, you should be in for a treat.

Wait you had these alll this time???? I remember hating them!
Am I bad for actually thinking it's not so bad, it's far from a terrible controller imo?! It's just that when you have the Mark 2 controllers it's rendered the least favourite to pick up and play when I do a Saturn session or two. Since I'm in Euroland my picture of the Saturn's main controller will always be that Mark 1 controller, thinking it looked way cooler than the PS1's controller.
Yay. Very cool game behind funky graphics, and the six buttons gameplay is a great addition to the Super Shinobi series. One of my favourites.

I'm fond of the ultra low-budget cutscenes

It is a very fun fighter with very unique characters. It's a lot darker in tone that previous Power Instinct games. Unfortunately its missing quite a bit of frames of animation from the STV release and there is a bit of loading time between matches as well. I Still love it though.

Fixed. Thanks for the heads-up! You should be able to edit your survey responses, btw.

Why is Shining the Holy Ark not an option for the Sega published games?
Saturn Memories
Neo Member
Because God knows I was bound to miss a few! Besides, wouldn't you rather play a gem like Hang-On GP '95 or Gale Racer?
I went ahead and added it.

- How many Saturn games do you own? > 2500
Oh my, are there even that many, counting all the regional variations and limited/rereleases editions?
- Would you purchase a device similar to the Game Freak or Retron5 if it supported Saturn gaming?
We agree that you are talking about software emulation boxes, not FPGA recreations and such?
- Which dormant Sega-published Saturn IP would be the best candidate for a slightly enhanced HD port?
The list is missing Sega Rally, but has a bunch of games like Nights, Virtual On, Daytona USA which already had slightly enhanced HD ports.

I kind of wanted to suggest Clockwork Knight, since I really loved 2...
I mean, I went with Panzer Dragoon Saga where applicable, since that's genuinely my favorite, but man, I have such fond memories of Clockwork Knight 2.

If I remember correctly it's actually something somewhere between 1,100-1,300 Japanese titles. Dunno why I I put 2,500 in there. I guess someone might have dupes or be collecting for multiple regions.
Yes, I'm very much aware. That's why that question was asked right after the emulation questions. Hell, the Retron5 is just running off stolen code from popular emus.
Originally, there was only one question asking respondents if they'd be interested in a "brand new game." I knew Sega Rally had one a few years ago on either PS3 or 360, so I didn't include it. I eventually decided I wanted to ask a variation of the same question (HD port), so I duplicated the same question, but forgot to remove a few games and add Sega Rally back in. Whoops.
On the Other hand, Panzer Dragoon is the correct answer. So you did the right thing.

When this is completed, are you going to post results here, or horde this information for yourself?
Saturn Memories

What good would come from hording? My goal is to inform and possibly open some eyes.
The survey results will be published a few days after it closes. I'll probably leave it open for the duration of April.

Nope, it expects me to fill the entire form out again.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I did enable the option to allow respondents to edit their submissions. Ah well, sorry.
Nearly busted up my Garegga CD when I dropped it the other day, luckily it was unscatthed.
Can someone give me a heads up on how I can rip the disc and then burn it on CDR?
Bear in mind that I have a Mac. - Im sure that there was a really short terminal command that allowed you to rip a disc.
The next step would be to burn that image correctly to a CDR, again preferably using a standard built in app - disk utility?

It's odd that I don't have it yet I played Panzer Dragoon and Panzer Dragoon Orta(still have it too).You like PDZ. You love it. Resistance is hopeless. Your life is meaningless without PDZ.
