The games run just like the originals, as the actual ROMs are on the Saturn disc. The collection also features extras much like in Sonic Jam — art, Japanese TV ads, etc. The original games are very highly regarded, so the collection made sense for Saturn. Alas, that language barrier…

SEGA AGES was a single release in the West, but in Japan, it was an entire series of classics from SEGA’s past. Phantasy Star Collection, released in 1998, featured the hit Master System first game and the subsequent three MegaDrive / Genesis entries.

The game itself takes place in a virtual PC desktop, and players can contact other NCP trainers, collect URL links & battle others for medals. The goal is to find and defeat the antagonistic Hackers. The game is excellent for Digimon fans — whip out your Saturn mouse and give it a go!

Late 1998 saw Bandai release Digital Monsters Ver. S: Digimon Tamers exclusively in Japan. An evolution of sorts of the Tamagotchi concept, players hatch, care for, scold, clean up after, and generally raise up to four Digimon in this pet simulation / management game.

Radiant Silvergun has been ported to modern consoles, but the first place you could play this masterpiece at home was on #Saturn. It showcased an audio-visual punch that competing systems were not capable of achieving. Its place in the pantheon of Saturn releases cannot be understated.

It takes a unique approach in that all weapons are available right from the start — and with continued gameplay, the weapons slowly gain experience and become more and more potent. The #Saturn port featured added FMV sequences and a special Saturn mode, for extra playability.

The game utilizes the Saturn’s high-resolution mode, runs at 60 FPS, and uses multiple rotating VDP 2 infinite planes that sometimes shimmer and distort to boot. The orchestrated Sakimoto soundtrack is at once brilliant and mad, and the storyline is equally insane.

Radiant Silvergun, Treasure’s third game for the Saturn, hit store shelves in July 1998. A shmup was a change from the company’s usual action/arcade produce, but what a shock to the senses it was. It employs a gorgeous blend of sprites and polygons.

She grants them Augments, which enable them to harvest the supernatural, and off they go to solve the riddle of the men in black. It's text heavy, but the SRPG battles and the crisp, stylized visuals make the experience easier to digest. Very atmospheric and definitely worth a try!

A fusion of 2/3 visual novel and 1/3 strategy RPG, Devicereign from Starlight Marry Corp hit the Saturn in early 1999. Three high school friends are suddenly accosted by a group of shadowy “men in black,” but the mysterious young girl Riko steps in to save them.

We're now six days into the Virtua Racing monthly challenge, With Fart Daily all alone still in the Arcade Racer category.

Seems the weekly challenge is by far the most popular with nine entries already! Midnight Friday is the deadline for the Lap 1 Weekly Challenge.

Your goal is to reach your hot air balloon before your rival Ratty the Rat. The levels are colorful, the music is adequate and the controls are OK, but the isometric perspective always makes judging jumps a tad difficult. The game runs on a time limit, so hop to it! Kids will love it.

Whizz is a Flair Software isometric platformer that first saw life on the DOS, Amiga & CD32 in 1994 before being ported to Saturn in Japan & Europe in 1997. Play as the cute bunny Whizz (short for Wizard) and run, spin and jump your way through four worlds.

The game features eight levels of intense shooting action for one or two players, sharing the game’s measly four credits. It’s tough, but in a good way. Galactic Attack is most worthy of your time and is definitely a #BestOfSaturnGold title.

The game’s claim to fame is that there are two layers to attack — the same layer your ship flies in and a section below your vessel. Your regular shots can only hit enemies on your layer, whereas a crosshair in front of you can target layers beneath you with homing missiles.

The game is presented in both Saturn-arranged 4:3 and arcade-original 3:4 tate mode. Level design is superb, with the reverse of the usual space shooter — you begin in outer space and gradually make your way deeper and deeper into the planet to confront the game’s end boss.

Galactic Attack is an overhead auto-scrolling shmup of the highest quality. The art style, music & sound effects are all top-notch. With tons of colorful enemies on screen, your eyes will always be delighted, even if your poor thumbs aren’t.
