That's my Garak right there.

Oh dear. Hope that wasn't too much trouble!

I've personally had some trouble getting the translation running on my ODE modded Saturn, but I think that's the ODE, not the Saturn. Drive in that one died long ago.

I generally prefer Mednafen. It works well with the translation too.

The original SNES game's translation isn't particularly great, sometimes hindering game play.

PS1 is a bit better, but lacks the Saturn's (pretty cool) Japanese voice acting.

Sounds strange, but both PS1 and Saturn are a lot faster to play too. SNES has a rather slow compression scheme it uses.

The PS1 has some issues - resistances don't scale like they should because of a bug which means the final boss and others can easily wipe you when that's not intended.

US SNES version accidentally makes leveling harder than the Japanese version intended, but is otherwise a fine way to play.

Ogre Battle speedrunner and general obsessive here.

Probably the translated Saturn version. Has some extra content that doesn't change the original experience and some extra map info that makes the game easier to play and understand.

PS1 and the US SNES versions are fine with caveats.

Generally yeah. Not valid unfortunately. What model do you have?

Do you have a late model PS2? You could look into the mechacon hacks. Let's you play any region psx game with some caveats affecting PS2 games.
