    it had a good run in Japan but Sega of America really wanted it to fail

    It was a system that despite its short shelf life, really deserved better, much like the Dreamcast. It's a system where 70% of its library is still untranslated thanks to Sega of America being fricking morons where they wanted to kill it off to try to get a leg over Sega of Japan and let it die in the West from zero marketing. It was better than both the PS1 and N64 at doing 2D, excluding awful ports like SotN, but even while it lagged behind in 3D, it could even do impressive stuff like the unreleased Shenmue build for Saturn.

    Sega Saturn game also have the best vidya cases outside of Japan. Big israeliteel cases will never not look cool.

    It was a giant piece of shit because of its ridiculous kludgy hardware design that drove away developers and cut into sega's margins while still not being good for 3D games. This was after making the disastrous split mega drive/sega cd/32x platform. This was when they omitted suicide as a company, failing to dig themselves out of the hole with the saturn. By the time Dreamcast came out it was too late for them, they had no capital to even manufacture the consoles that people wanted to buy.

    While we might like those awesome 2D games, 3D was still important at the time. There were no important or influential 3D saturn games. The best 3D games were inferior ports of arcade games. Even panzer dragoon was just an on-rails shooter that looked kinda cool.

    It's also underrated because of all those cool 2D and jap exclusive games in older genres. They would've never brought worldwide success but I like them.

    The Saturn was based as frick and has a ton of amazing games. Anyone who says it doesn't have any good games is too afraid to try a game that isn't from a franchise they already know.
