I'm gonna get a Sega Saturn for my birthday, with Sonic Jam, Sonic 3D Blast, and Street Fighter Alpha 2 (At least the one I'm bidding on does, hopefully I win, still two more days).

Here's some games I've been thinking about buying as well

Clockwork Knight 2 (Awesome underrated game, I had this when I used to have Saturn...I might still have it, but it's long gone XD)
Megaman 8 (Always wanted the superior Saturn version)
Sonic R (Always wanted this too)
SCUD:  The Disposable Assassin (I rented this way back when it came out, it's a pretty fun 2D side-scrolling shooter with some FPS parts)
NiGHTS: Into Dreams (Again...everyone who has Saturn needs to own this game, I only had a demo, always wanted this XD)

Anyone else wanna recommend some games?

Ohhh yeah, I remember that game.  I even still have the issue of Game Informer where they covered Fighters Megamix, the combination of Virtua Fighters and Fighting Vipers.

Oh yeah, that game owned my Saturn! And just so you know, NiGHTS is a good game, but really weird if I recall... Sonic 3D Blast is okay, just don't expect a whole lot of easy or different from the Genesis/MegaDrive version.
Soon to be a major motion picture!

Sure can. Maria uses a bunch of animal summons, mkaing her VERY powerful. Though I want to play the Turbographix-16 Castlevania more than the Saturn SOTN.

One little problem.

1. It's rare as hell.

2. It's only in Japanese

Wait...that's two...nevermind.  If there's one rare Japanese game I really want for Saturn, that's Radiant Silvergun...too bad it costs more than $100.  I know Treasure kicks ass and everything, but that's just a bit TOO much to pay for a game.

And yeah, I rented 3D Blast when it came out on Genesis, then eventually bought the Saturn version when THAT came out.  I like the Saturn version better for the music and that cool 3D Special Stage.  Mostly I wanted it for the nostalgia though XD.

NiGHTS kicks ass.  Never owned a Saturn, so I didn't get to play it much.  You can play a mini version on teh GBA with Phantasy Star Online.

Where did you find a Saturn, or someone found a Saturn for you?  I can't find those anywhere.  I'm assuming Ebay.
Chainsaw hands and text based sigs for great justice.

Why not download the ROM for it? (The Saturn version)

I mean, its not like the officials know where you live, heck, they don't know WHERE ANY ROM owner(s) live.

Cuz it's Turbographix-16 CD game. Not only would it be unaquirable on dial-up, it would likely not work anyways. Plus, if the rom WAS in distribution, people would be grabbing ti left and right. It's VERY saught after.
