Hi, i was wondering, if a lot of saturn games have copy protection, and is there a place where i can find a list of these games? Thanks

And I still insist that Saturn games are not copy-protected.You can copy each GAME in its entirety without difficulty and have a working backup. It's the security ring one cannot copy, but that isn't required for a Saturn game to work. So what if one has to use the swap trick or a mod board.
To me, a game is only truly copy-protected if a backup made from that game can not be made to work no matter what, i.e. the game itself is corrupted and useless because it didn't copy 100%.

So Lightwave or other software that requires hardware dongles aren't copy protected either, as you can make how many copies you want but you can't run them? Most Playstation games aren't copy protected either, since it's only an area at the beginning you can't make a copy of, but you can circumvent with a modchip? IMO they are copy-protected with a protection scheme that's inherent in the format.
