So my saturn had been sitting dormant for a while, but i wanted to get it out and play some Shining Force 3 again today, but it seems it may be dying. For starters, it only sporatically recognizes my Action Replay. Then, when I try to boot games (originals), it takes me to the CD player menu and gives me either "Disc not suitable for this system," "Drive Empty," or recognizes it as an audio CD. I did manage to get Nights to boot up once, but have not been able to get it to do so again.
This is a model one saturn that the swap trick was used on for some time, but as far as I can remember, it worked pretty well the last time I used it. A couple older burned games didn't work, but I assumed that was my cheap media. Any ideas, or am I better off getting a new saturn? Iif so, is there anyone who will sell me a 32 pin model 2 so I can be fairly sure I will be able to mod it? Thanks.
Edit: after messing around with it some more, most of my originals are working on a consistent basis, but still not all, and I have yet to try any copied games... is it possible it just needed to "warm up" or something?
