Since I have pretty much all the multitap games for the saturn I've decided to release my official rankings for best multitap games, see if you guys agree:
3 Players
----------
Three Dirty Dwarves - by far the best, old school side-scroller\platformer.
Capcom Generations 4 (one game uses the multitap, sucks though)
4 Players
----------
Noon - very addictive once you figure out how to play.
Winter Heat - can't believe I forgot about this, suprisingly polished for a Sega Arcade game. And beautiful graphics. Get this game.
Sega Ages: Rouka Ni Itidantoa-Ru - two game disk, 2nd game has a bunch of fun minigames.
Slam-n-Jam 96 - Best basketball game for Saturn.
NBA Jam T.E. - Pretty good.
Bomberman Fight! - 3d bomberman action. Similar to the N64 one.
College Slam - not too bad, highly playable
Break Point Tennis - sucks
Hansha De Spark - sucks, no clue how to play properly
Nba Jam Extreme - sucks
Keriotosse - sucks, extremely repetitive
WWF In Your House - sucks
Blast Chamber - sucks
Trash It - 1 player mode is actually kinda interesting. Haven't played multiplayer though.
6 Players
----------
Fire Pro Wrestling: 6MS - simply amazing. Only problem is finding people who can play this game. Pretty big learning curve.
Death Tank One - I don't need to elaborate 😉
Guardian Heroes - Would be ranked higher, but unbalanced multiplayer mode. Despite that, excellent multitap game.
Vatlva - Fun one player-two player, not that good multiplayer.
Space Jam - sucks royally, how do you screw up NBA Jam?
7 Players
------------
Death Tank Zwei - kickass game, but you guys all knew that.
8 Players
------------
Street Racer - Not bad, a little shallow, but graphics get ugly in split screen modes.
10 Players
------------
Saturn Bomberman - probably the most intense of all the games listed, especially with outside interference\beyond the grave bombing on.
Homebrew Games (Sega Saturn Multiplayer Task Force)
-------------
Floupix Ping Pong - 12 player slime volleyball clone. Best and most polished home game by far.
Le Pin - 7 (?) player original game.
Le sPin - 7 (?) player original game.
Twelve Snakes - 12 player snake clone.
And the multitap game according to Slinga is...*drumroll*....Fire Pro Wrestling (if you can find people who know how to play that is). In close second is Saturn Bomberman, and Death Tank Zwei.
You guys are probably shocked to see me rank Death Tank so low, it's because I think the game can be very unbalanced, especially if you go a few rounds without scoring. It's still a great game though.
Edit: I've left a lot of sports games of the list because I'm too lazy to play them.
Edit: Forgot about winter heat and bomberman fight.
