Q1 : I have a PAL Saturn, and I found that I have "16/9-ish" vertical black bars when playing japanese games, and I also need to lower the video sharpness of my Sony tv, otherwise there is a hell lot of waving interferences from bottom right to top left.
Is that because my Saturn runs at 50 Hz and my games are japanese ?
Could I modify my Saturn to run at 60 Hz only ?
Q2 : I bought a grey cartridge that was supposed to be an Action Replay, but there's a sticker that only says "8 MEG" on it. It also says "new 8 meg ram card v2.1 for Saturn © 1997" when booting the console, BUT it always gives a black screen when getting into the system preferences when the cartridge is fit. And SNK games still say they require the 1 MB cartridge.
I got scammed, right? :{
I opened it, it's got 2 "flashram SST-like" chips, and one controller. Any clue please ?
Q3 : was there a "Capcom generation" volume with "Ghosts'n Goblins" and/or "Ghouls'n Ghosts" ?
And has there ever been a port of "Sidewinder" from Arcadia Systems ?
Last thing, for Saturn newbies like me, I would advise a great shooter : "Soukyu Gurentai"(aka Terra Diver?). I like it more than Radiant Silvergun(that is way too overhyped in my opinion). "Ikaruga" is still "numero uno" in my book.
Thank you for your help in any of those questions gentlemen, and long live Sega-Extreme!
