I bought one with a controller and Virtua Cop for $5 yesterday at a flea market. In your opinion, what are the must-have games? Best place to buy games? And, what's the deal with regional lockout? [/seinfield.]

Thanks.

Ebay...And um there is a way to trick the Saturn into playing Japanese games without any mods, search for "Saturn disc swap" or something like that.

Pawn shops, swap meets / car boots. Most Saturn games are inexpensive.

I don't know if it works for USA saturns, but if you have a pal saturn, you can simply use an action replay cartridge and play nearly all other-region games.

Games:
Sega Rally Championship
Die Hard Arcade
Panzer Dragoon Saga
Tomb Raider (although the playstation version is better)
House of the Dead

Yeah, the Action Replay works for playing games from other regions; it just plugs into the cartridge port. I use one with the 4 meg memory expansion to play the Japanese X-Men vs Street Fighter and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night with no problems.

Nights Into Dreams.  one of my top favorite games of all time.  And if you can find it with the controller, even better.

Funny thing, I have a Nights controller, but no game Tongue  At least I think I do...it looks like a prototype DC controller or something...

Maybe. But most of the games are more than what I am willing to pay, which is like $10 a game complete and mint. When you get some rarities and popular games for next to nothing, paying a little more seems like a lot, ya know?

One of the games I have is Virtua Cop 2, that's a great game. Area 51 and Iron Storm are somethings to look for as well.

You can't go wrong getting Virtua Fighter 2.

It is one of the best games they ever had for the system.

Not quite as good as the Arcade version. But, a nice attempt none the less.

Virtua Fighter 2, Virtua Cop, Bug, Sega Rally, and various ports of 3do games are all good.  They have some decent rpgs and shooters on this system as well.

Nights and the Panzer Dragoon games.  I thought Bug and Mr. Bones was alright, too.

I love Die Hard Arcade.  If you can get a copy for under a bazillion dollars, Shining Force 3 is arguably the best of the entire series.
