Whoops I did it again - Sega Saturn inbound

[rubber_jonnie]

If you really want to "mod" your saturn you could fit a region free BIOS? That was the hardest thing I've ever soldered. Oh for hot air!

I'm not sure you need region free BIOS anymore? But I don't know how many hoops you have to jump through for region free via cartridge.

I also fitted a 50Hz/60Hz switch to mine, simple metal switch.

That Cartridge I've linked to does the region free bit too and is pretty simple to fit

Not decided on any mods as yet (I actually recently de modded my OG Xbox), but I do like the look of that cart @PhilC

@rubber_jonnie That battery will take you all of five seconds to do, it's a CR2032 IIRC.

The mod chips are about £25 on Aliexpress and I have one of these too which makes things even better

Just ordered the cartridge Typical Ali Express though, you can forget about any express delivery, will be here in January!!

@rubber_jonnie cool, now you just need to find some Cdr's that work with it I use Maxell if it helps and I think CDRomance for the images.

Sweet, thanks for the tips. Just got Sega Rally for it for £4.99 Be good to compare to the Dreamcast version.

@rubber_jonnie it's a bit blocky but Sega Rally chugs along nicely on it

Probably the best Sega game ever. Loved it on the DC.

Sega Rally 1 (not remake) on the PS2 is excellent. Japan only release, but quite easy to get it to run nowadays.
I don't think it supports steering wheels though, well not Logitech.

Well, Sega Rally is on the way and I'm watching a Daytona: USA auction, so all good.

As I said earlier, I ultimately want to get a Fenrir, but for now it's got to wait until the new year. I also want the DC equivalent and an Everdrive or similar for the SNES. Going to be an expensive year 2023

Th DC Gmecu or whatever it's called is actually pretty cheap, around £40 with the 3d printed parts to adapt the case. I got mine from Aliexpress.
