Hello everybody, I joined the site some time ago but thought it was time I posted and introduced myself.
My name is Raymond I'm 28 from Northampton Town in the UK, I've been collecting not just for the Sega Saturn but numerous other consoles for 12 years.
I still need 30 more Sega Saturn games for a full PAL collection, still searching eBay etc. for the games I need at reasonable prices, that's proving a bit of a problem though!

Welcome!
Sounds like an impressive collection so far. I've only begun collecting Saturn and Sega in general just this past Summer.

Welcome to the forums Raymond!!  Always good to have another Saturn collector around here. By the sounds of it you have a pretty solid set of games already too (though I know what you mean about Ebay prices, you just have to be patient I'm afraid). Anyway, I've been collecting Saturn games seriously for about the same amount of time (although I have owned my Saturn since '96) and I'm just about there with finishing my PAL set (1 more to go YAY!!), but there are still plenty of imports that I intend to track down eventually. I'd be very interested to know what PAL games you still need to complete your collection. Incidentally, are you also collecting import games? If so, do you have a modded Saturn or are you using an Action Replay cart? Anyway, I guess that's enough questions for the time being lol!! So welcome aboard and by all means DO keep posting!!  |

Thanks guys! infernalcombustion, yeah for sure I'm very patient too I just wait for the games to come up bidding wise & put my maximum bid, if I win I win, if I don't then I'll keep waiting I do have an Action Replay cart but I haven't got alot of imports about 6 JAP games and 1 US game, I think I'll probably go for imports more when I do finally complete my PAL collection though. Sounds like it won't be long before you're celebrating a full PAL collection, what's the 1 game you still need? |

what's the 1 game you still need? DragonHeart : Fire & Steel For some strange reason it seems to go for quite a lot of money (on Ebay anyway!!). I don't really know why though, because it doesn't seem to be particularly rare and it isn't a very popular title (It got deservedly crap reviews all round too). I was hoping that one of my friends would pick it up for me as a belated birthday present - god knows I dropped enough hints - but sadly it just wasn't to be!!  I do have an American copy though, so I'm not really in a great hurry to get it for any other reason than to complete my PAL collection. ;D |

There's a copy of Dragonheart for £25 on Amazon. Welcome by the way! |

Take that back! It's not £42.50!
Was definitely only £25 about 2 months ago the cheeky bastards!

@infernal combustion: www.lukiegames.com/_p_10785.htmlhave never placed an order with this site, but the game lists for 10 euro's. You could give it a try Edit: oops, sorry this isn't PAL but NTSC-U  |

I think when I got mine it was in my local GameStation a few years ago, I couldn't have paid anymore than £4.99 for it. Thanks for the welcome mancity ;D |
