I'm sorry but I disagree - the VCD card mainly served to play VCD's, and NOT as an addon for games. The thing is, the CD block won't let you read beyond the first 32k of the disc, normally, if there is no security check done (which fails if there is no security ring). BUT, the VCD card can...

Now we're on the subject (to some extent), I wonder how the VCD card can get the Saturn to read data from discs without security ring :looney

:banana Now that would be nice, especially with the imminent decline of CD lasers. Best of luck! If you succeed I'll send you some money to get drunk :D

Wow, the Saturn. I remember reading about it in may 1995, in my brother's first (and only) games magazine. By then it wasn't released in Europe yet, and all I had was a NES. Due to the quite sketchy information (I was 10 by then, in fact the system was released in Japan 1 day after my birthday...

Yes indeed, first and foremost it's for the beloved Dreamcast :damn: Gawd, this board is so America-centric :flamethrower:

Anyone got screenshots? I'm afraid I cant play the game (swapping kills and I sold my modchips) but it would be interesting to see :-)

well, my list pales in comparison with dj898's no doubt: -Jewels of the Oracle complete, supposedly the rarest PAL game (PAL only) -Dragon Force complete, PAL -Deep Fear PAL (discs only) And if we take local rarity into account my Netlink is super rare as I have yet to come across another...

I have one of those early model 1 Saturns (with the separate power board). After some searching I found the location marked JP1 (on the bottom side, near the cartridge connector if I remember correctly) and bridged it with a bit of solder from a way too inaccurate soldering gun with a 3mm head...

And me loves it :cool: If it gets released for a budget price like over here in Holland (30e) I can really recommend it, a nice piece of history and one of the few 2D games on PS2. :cheers

if it has a LPT-style port on it, you can hook it up to a comms-card (separate ISA card you put in your PC, it DOES NOT work with a standard parallel port) and reflash it. But you might also try ExCyber's reflash disc, with the swap trick.

hey, its not totally unlikely as the Saturn Sophia devkit can map the RAM into the cartridge area (it can have up to 32mb RAM I think).

:agree I second that. It rules! :cheers

Pardon my ignorance, what is Savaki?

I ordered 4 of them, tried to keep the website secret but unfortunately you guys found it :devil

No probs, I figured someone might already know... and my discs are blank unfortunately (they'll stay 'virgin' forever).

Behold what I got today: :cheers But of course I did not create this topic to boast, rather, I remember some discussion on this board about these CD-R's. There was no definitive answer about the security track (that's on all saturn discs along the outer edge). When I got these the first...

I had numerous problems with my Saturn scart leads from Lik-sang... better steer clear of them I'd say (but the image quality does improve a lot over RF)

well it's possible to configure part of the SH2's cache to be 'private' memory... but I think that's only 2K.

get yourself an Action Replay CDX, not only does it allow you to play imports but you can also select PAL/NTSC which is pretty unique as far as bootdiscs are concerned :cheers That doesnt mean that it wont play in PAL mode, all of my import games do.

If you can hook me up with a cheap copy of this game I'll see if I can hack some codes ;) To be honest it shouldnt be very complicated, I assume the super meters are just stored as numbers so fixing them at the highest value should do the trick.
