I have seen a few emulators for the Saturn but have no time in checking them out at the moment so what i was going to ask is have anyone on here checked them out.
I know there`s a snes emu but you needed the 4M cart and there are gameboy,sms and a few others for it. Maybe if i can get them i`ll post up the links here for you all to try out.

I think it would be very difficult to emulate the Saturn successfully. But I'm no Expert.

I tried the Genesis one once, and it ran ok for the most part. (Lots of slowdown in Sonic 3). I never tried the SNES emu though because I don't like the system. Let us know how it works.

SSF which you can find a link to on our download section is the only actively updated Saturn Emulator.
It's not too bad but you will need a reasionably beefy computer to keep the framerate up in fighting games and Sega Rally.

I think morcar is referring to running emulators on a Saturn (like playing MAME on a Dreamcast). Not playing Saturn games on a PC. They do exist, as I've played the Genesis one, but their is little info about them on the internet.

Not much to tell, other then that some were made many years ago. Mostly by Japanese players, so info is not common. I had a few of them on my old computer, but thats on the other side of the planet from me right now.
They were quickly forgotten when people realized you didn't need a modchip to play homebrew stuff on the Dreamcast. I'll see if I can dig up some info from Japanese websites. Morcar is correct about some of them needing the 4mb RAM cart, as some games were too big for the Saturn's 2mbs of internal RAM.

I've got a Megadrive emulator on my soft-modded Xbox. Probably against the rules of the forum to tell you it but game's play fine. Mostly use it for games I haven't got or rare stuff: Granada, Snow Bros etc..

I know all about Xbox and DC emus. I have them all - and more r0Mz than there are on the interweb.
I was all excited at the thought of there being an emu for the Saturn.

don't even joke about it guys - it's morally wrong and you know it.
remember - Jesus hates r0mz - they're the work of the devil and you'll go to hell
