Boomerang is more like a remix of Cotton 2, it ends up playing quite a bit differently and is well worth tracking down. I suppose these days it would just be launched as a DLC content but there's more than enough differences to make it stand on its own.
As for getting a Japanese console, it's usually cheaper and more convenient to simply find a modder who can fit you a region free BIOS. There are lots of great modders in the USA could do that for you. There's also the option of cartridges that unlock region free capabilities but I much prefer the BIOS route then you can just use the cartridge slot for the action replay and get cheats and memory expansion etc. Cotton 2/Boomerang take advantage of the 4mb RAM expansion.

Welcome, yeah it's not terribly busy here these days, but I still find myself checking in quite often, why not eh?
Both Cotton 2 and Boomerang are 100% worth playing. Cotton recently got a bunch of new games on modern systems too that are also very good.

Play it on the Saturn fella, it blows the PS1 version away in comparison with none of that mid level loading.

Maybe just don't use composite then? Idk...not all that unusual for composite quality to vary between systems, especially older systems where they haven't been recapped.

Bad scaling by your TV I'd assume. Composite is a very low quality signal.

Can't imagine there's much difference between them, no way to tell from a picture which would be better.

This might be a good place to start, especially if you want to keep it to C/C++ at the moment - jo-engine.org/

Get an ODE Give us a bit more to go on, exactly what didn't work? Where did it fail? How far does it get?

I'd always want the Action Replay available too, Rayman is just about unplayable for me without infinite lives

A shame Regalsin is banned, he always had amusing anecdotes on this topic

Where would you recommend to buy the AR cart in the EU? Will any old seller on e.g Aliexpress do? Aren't there poor quality knockoffs going round of it these days?

So a friend messaged me last night to ask what the best place was to buy a Saturn memory cart from and I realised I didn't actually know these days.
In 2022, what IS the best cart and best place to buy it?
About his Saturn
1) He has an ODE so doesn't need CD-R loading 2) Would like Action Replay cheats 3) Doesn't care about those oddball games that require their own custom cart.
Oh and he's based in Ireland.
