Episode Notes:
1. Saturn footage is always captured on real hardware.
2. This episode was massive. Even bigger before the edit. Categories that did not make the final cut.
BEST PLATFORMER - MEGA MAN X4/DRACULA X
BEST 3D CONTROL PAD SUPPORT - BURNING RANGERS/NIGHTS
BEST PARTY GAME - STREET RACER/SATURN BOMBERMAN
BEST ARCADE PORT - ELEVATOR ACTION RETURNS/OUTRUN
3. I plan to do this with all the game systems I own.
4. Magic Knight Rayearth was in my original Saturn Awards episode as the best RPG. After splitting the RPG/STRATEGY/ADVENTURE categories up and adding Grandia and Vandal Hearts, I had to slide it down the list a tad. I still think it's a great game.
5. I cut the platformer category from the rotation because I just don't think the Saturn was strong enough or well-stocked enough to cover it. In the awards episode, I named Dracula X(Symphony of the Night) as the winner. That should say just about everything.
6. In the Assault Suit Leynos Segment I said there's no slowdown. This is not entirely true. It does chug a bit when the monster ships are on screen. This was actually in the script and why I showed the boss encounter in that category. I edited the section a little aggressively.

    100% Though he,nor I,nor you have ever created games. With that said,it's definately a much different company today. All the greats are gone,as with many companies. But,I will always repeat that Sega are bums. They're good for nothing.honestly. they've been pushing the genesis for the past 20 years.collection after collection of piece mealin followed by many more years of atgames and finally the most current collection and mini console(which are good) but it's like enough with the genesis.its over. They devalued the thing so much that even Nintendo,with their crappy online "retro games disguised as a service" service, even they won't drop a trailer for Genesis,with the games coming out in weeks,or a week,or days.no,they know the hype is so low that they're just available immediately.and yes they're great games(time never takes that away) but it's time for Sega to move on,which they won't.so I say just shut it down. They're not keeping anything good alive. They have a great back library that they've built nothing on.theyre not with the times,and they're not stuck in the times.theyre just wherever.and it sad,cuz as I always say, theres no reason Sega isn't on par with Nintendo's software. even Xbox,who has been around 22 years, manages to still be relevant with zero of their own unique,groundbreaking,staple,exclusive,must play games that they themselves created. Could you imagine Nintendo during the GameCube or Wii era, and their only property that they created was like yoshi? It's pitiful.and Sega could be killing right now.but they're not.cuz they can't.cuz they're stinking bums! Theyre bums! (Coach Mickey from rocky voice) bums!

    Guardian Heroes was also dope because playing the story mode over and over would unlock TONS of extra selectable characters for the game's awesome 6-player Vs. mode. And some of the seemingly underpowered grunts from the campaign proved to be surprisingly competitive/valid choices to play in Versus. Treasure's amazingly precise 2D controls and collision made the whole combat system feel glorious.

    I remember a few people wrote in to Sega Saturn Magazine complaining about the high score they awarded Guardian Heroes, saying they hated the mad amounts of enemies on screen etc, and that it had 'no replay value'. One person also seemed dubious about whether it was actually by Treasure because there was no logo or reference on the box. I remember feeling rather annoyed at the time. I know it's not to everyone's taste, but personally I still play it loads to this day, and still haven't unlocked all of the hidden characters. For me, it definitely has the feel of a Treasure title, especially with the various magic abilities each character uses. Awesome game!

    Your videos are so comfy to watch. I'm at a point in my life where I'm completely lost and in utter despair about how I'm going to keep going. After many idiotic decisions during my teenage years and early adulthood, I'm stuck inside my head hating all those choices. But some KZread channels still make me feel nice, make me forget the bad times, the bad choices, the things I did... And this is one of them. You actively make me seek out retro games, something I've always been interested in, and your coverage of them and your passion are truly inspiring. I've been a SEGA fan since I was a kid, the Mega Drive was the only viable option to a poor Brazilian kid even in the 2000s after all, but this channel keeps my love alive. I've never even seen a Saturn before, but I'm in love with its library thanks to emulation. Anyway, thanks for being awesome SLX.

The fight is real but you can beat it back by waking up every day and giving your old self the middle finger and putting positivity out in the world. The pain you caused in the past can't be undone, but there are always people needing your help today.

    I was a latecomer to the Playstation. At the time, I loved my Neo-Geo AES and Sega Saturn the most. Even today, I still own a Neo-Geo and Sega Saturn because in my opinion, they are the best consoles ever made. I eventually bought a Playstation and I loved it just as much. I also cherished my Sega Dreamcast. I remember how magical it felt to own one, with some of the best games releasing for it. Resident Evil: Code Veronica, Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi, MVC2, etc. I bought a PS2 on launch, but it took years before I loved owning it.

    Lets face it - it was mostly shit. There were some classics that suited the console, but not many. As a 2D "genesis in beast mode" console - it was amazing. But this was during the Golden Era of the PC - where the gaming PC made every other system look like complete trash, no matter what. I remember my friends brother bought a saturn to replace his Jaguar, and he was talking about the incredible 3D graphics of panzer dragoon, just as he did when he used to talk about aliens vs predator. But then his brother and I would be linking up our PC's via serial cable and playing Quake deathmatch, or Big Red Racing, or Command & Conquer - and within two months, that Jaguar AND Saturn were sold, and replaced with a gaming PC. The kicker was Sega Rally - which did play great on his Saturn - but he saw us playing Screamer 2 and that was the last straw. Consoles were still great for a hanful of console games, but it was around the time of the Saturn and Playstation that consoles started to try to mimick the PC experience, especially in 3D titles, and failed miserably. FPS gaming on a controller? No thanks. Awful FPS and graphics too, in comparison to a Pentium PC with a VooDoo card. The consoles still held up in their own genre but the PC was light years ahead, generations ahead, in everything else. The Dreamcast was possibly an exception, it had good hardware, clever developers and innovative ideas - yet it failed commerically? I was never sure why. Since then, consoles basically became low end PC's that you can't upgrade, and that ask for $60 game with poor performance. The Wii is amazing. Know why? It KNOWS it's a console! XD

    @@E1N101 If consoles always had the better games, why are many of the console mainstays today PC FRANCHISES with their original titles and genres birthed on the PC? I mean, you can try to answer that if you want, but we already know the answer, don't we? And it proves I'm right, doesn't it? Are you aware that when the PS2 came out, the PC gaming machines were 3x faster and with double the resolution and fidelity and 2-3x the framerate? I mean, you can try to answer that but, it's not an opinion, it's a fact. So, it's kinda rhetorical. It wasn't even a contest, and it never has been. The two most powerful consoles of their time were the Dreamcast and the Xbox X, both of which were totally eclipsed on the day of launch by the gaming PC. It's fine to love Metal Gear, Sonic, Streets of Rage, Road Rash, Resident Evil etc. But that doesn't make them "better" than PC games, does it? It just makes you nostalgic for them. And Tomb Raider was developed FOR and ON the PC. The PC version has infinitely better visuals, sound, performance, playability, immersion and GUI. It was cross ported during development to the Playstation, and heavily downgraded to suit. Not sure why you'd bring that game up, it's not a console game originally. As for jealousy, as a general rule, people are envious of something superior to what they have, not of something vastly inferior. If someone wanted a console exclusive fighting game say, Soul Calibur, but they owned a PC - they would simply buy a console too and have both. And if a console owner wanted a version of GTA that wasn't running at 20-30fps with low resolution graphics and details as was the PS4 version, they would simply buy a PC also to enjoy a much better version. After all, GTA is a PC franchise, ported to the consoles. Have a good one!

    55 year old german gamer and subscriber to your channel reporting in. I enjoy a lot of your high quality content (especially the SEGA stuff). Decades ago in Germany I owned the SEGA Mega Drive that I modded to be able to play NTSC games in addition to the standard PAL games as well. I remember meeting with a Japanese gamer every now and then to trade games (that is how I got "Hellfire" back in the day) and just chat about that stuff. I also have vivid memories about playing Daytona USA in a local Arcade and will never forget how impressed I was by the graphics, the sound and the incredible force feedback that racer provided. This experience was leaps and bounds ahead of anything else I had seen at that time. Once I learned about the Saturn and a freaking home version of Daytona USA, I knew I had to buy that system on launch day, which I did. I also bought the wheel for Daytona USA and drove the heck out of that game! Yeah...the graphics were a little rough, but that did not bother me a bit. I also got Panzer Dragoon and watched the opening cinematic more often then I should have........Virtua Fighter 1 and 2 , SEGA Rally, Decathlon......what a great system to own!!! Who knows what SEGA could have achieved if SEGA Japan had listened more to what their american division had to say...

    Props for the shout-out to Powerslave!!!!♥️♥️♥️ I picked up the PS1 version not long after its release, and omg what a gem. Gorgeous visuals/lighting effects, magnificent gameplay, killer soundtrack, and definitely a challenge. For me, Powerslave and Disruptor were neck and neck, only behind the OG daddy DOOM👌🏻 Great vid🙏🏻

Thank you keep up the good works! 🎉

I was a PS1 player back in the day (but always wanted a Saturn too but was not rich enough to do so) but have now amassed a pretty respectable (& expensive in some cases) Saturn collection. I bought the Dreamcast when it came out though and have a respectable MD/Genesis library. Anyway, happy holidays from the UK.

    I pretty much agree with your list other then Daytona USA: Championship Circuit Edition needs to be in there. I know you don't like how it chg control wise from the arcade version but I loved it. I had both versions and I had no trouble adapting to the new version. This game , Virtua fighter 2 and virtual cop 2 are love songs to Sega arcade and reflect what sega should have focused more on with the Saturn and dremcast. Their fantastic library of arcade games. All I wanted back then was to bring the arcade back into my home and considering most of us couldb't afford a neogeo the Saturn was THE system that came closest to getting us there.

Dragon Force was amazing, but Panzer Dragoon was the hope I hung 32 bit dreams on. Beautiful fantasy music, excellent visuals and story, and well, it's Taarna -Heavy Metals revenge fueled dream daughter, on a Sega console. I'm sad Panzer Dragoon is barely talked about today.
