Hey folks!
Lovely place you guys have here lol.
I am officially back in love with the Saturn after a delivery of a crisp white model 2 JPN Saturn (HST-0014) and a bundle of games.
I forgot how beautiful this machine was! Always loved the colours of the JPN ranges more than the UK/USA black models.
I'll be looking to replace the PSU with a ReSaturn or similar as I dont have a step-down transformer...yet.
Anyhoos, thought I'd pop in and say Hi, so Hi!
Rob.

Very nice purchase, I'd be careful what replacement PSU you get as many of them aren't that great in my experience.

Hey Rob! Welcome to SSUK!
What games came with the console you purchased?
I agree with buckoa, be careful with the replacement PSU you get (I have no experience in this area).

I have been trawling the tinterwebs looking for one, so I have opted for the French Guy named DragonCity as his looked most sturdy, and honestly, didnt look like an AliExpress special... |

I agree with buckoa, be careful with the replacement PSU you get (I have no experience in this area). is the PSU Im using, and I was supplied with some neat little games to start: Panzer Dragoon Zwei (one of my all time favourite games) Virtua Fighter remix Virtua Fighter 2 Sega Rally Fighters Megamix Greatest 9 '97 (never been one for baseball but I love the Saturn so it'll be all good lol) |

The only replacement PSU I know is good is the one Mobius Strip developed mobiusstriptechnologies.com/product/mobius-power-strip/Though it's out of stock. Honestly you're probably fine with the Dragon whatever one but IDK for sure, could just use a stepdown I suppose. Your collection definitely needs more shooters in my opinion  |

Hi newbie here too.
Sega Saturn was the only console apart from the gamegear that I never owned back in the day.
Always wanted one despite everyone else having ps and n64. Used to buy the official magazine too just to look at the games.
It always struck me that while it didnt have as many games, the games that it did have were way more interesting than anything else at the time and even more so now.
Finally decided to get a Saturn last month off ebay and very happy with it so far, it came pre-modded for a reasonable price so i can play japanese, western and even backup discs on it!
