I like classic games and both are great systems but not sure which one to pick up. I don't wanna get both because I won't have time to play them all and most games are rare and cost up to $100 for a game.
Saturn defintely has more rarer games. Just Panzer Dragoon, Princess Crown,and Radiant Silvergun aloneprobably goes more on ebay than all the Dreamcast library put together. I'msure there are more rare ones, but those three come to mind.
But personally, since I never had a Saturn, I'll go with the good ol` DC. I still play mine once in awhile. I have so many good fighters on it that I just can never get rid of them.
I had a saturn and really dint rate it, the DC on the other hand blew me away from the first time i turned it on. If u connected it to the tv via RGB scart the clarity of the colours was simply amazing and the textures too were leaps ahead of anythin else, even the pc at the time.
I still play on it to this day, Sonic, Crazy Taxi are just 2 of the many gems that keep me happy.
I'm going to have to say the Dreamcast ... but I'm biased ... I loved that system way ahead of it's time and could have been one of the greats!!Anabub
I agree. The DC was a fallen star. SHOULD have saved Segas console dreams. At the time it had exclusive Marvel vs Capcom 2, on of the best fighting games ever. Its light gun combined with the House of the Dead series made perfect arcade translation. Good times.
I usually suggest people get neither. The best games on the Saturn are wickedly expensive, and the best games on the Dreamcast got ported to Gamecube and PS2.
If you're going to pick one, maybe go for the Saturn. With about 4 or 5 exceptions the best games on the Dreamcast are available on the Cube or PS2 like I said. Most of the Saturn games are exclusives so if you can't play them there, you're just going to miss out. You will have to part with some serious cash to get games like Dragon Force, but NiGHTS into Dreams is dirt cheap and a fantastic game AND dirt cheap, so it'll even out for you.
I'm not going to lie, every single core SEGA fan that owned both an imported Saturn and a Dreamcast have all said that the Saturn is far superior to the Dreamcast
ive never owned a saturn so i would have to go with the dreamcast that console was way ahed of its time it made ps1 games look like garbage compared to the dreamcasts graphics if you do decide to get one you should consider getting sonic adventure 2, crazy taxi, shenmue, resident evilcode veronica, sfa3, soul reaver, and dino crisis
I am going to say Dreamcast as I've never owned a Saturn so really I am not one to say whcih one you should get. Most of the DC's classics have been ported such as Crazy Taxi and Code Veronica but it's worth looking into because you could play greats such as Jet Set Radio (Jet Set Grind to American folks) and Shenmue 1 and 2. Not only that but fi you got the games that have already been ported over to the other consoles but acquired them on the DC, they would be really rare and worth loads.
I had a Dreamcast and still kick myself for giving it away. My friend showed me how you can play Emulators and roms on the dreamcast without having to open the system and mod it...so im sayin Dreamcast
