So, time for a HUGE update!

I already said it, but I got a Saturn Stunner. Love the color and design of it! It’s my second ever light gun, after the Master System Phaser (does the Wiimote count as a light gun too?) and I haven’t given it too much play so far. I guarantee to dedicate a good amount of time to the Virtua Cop games soon though!

Who said you need to spend a fortune to have a fun shmup on Saturn? Layer Section was an absolutely INCREDIBLE purchase, and has now become one of my go-to games for the system. I love it… so much. A cool vertical shooter that uses parallax layers as a main gameplay mechanic, kinda like Xevious, but WAYYYY faster and more dynamic. Also has great music.

Christmas NiGHTS! I never splurged on it before, despite it being so cheap and renound, because I didn’t want to pay import fees if I didn’t have to. It was a birthday gift to me this year! And what a gift it was, as my aunt SOMEHOW found a new-old-stock copy. That means this guy is as mint as it can be without actually being a sealed game! A fun platformer-adjacent title with tons of secrets, clock based mysteries, and holiday cheer!

Finally: STREET FIGHTER COLLECTION! I’ve wanted more fighters on Saturn, and I wanted Alpha 2 so bad. However, I saw this gem at a local used game store. And it was less than the online prices I’ve seen! For that price, I couldn’t say no!
With all that covered, HERE is my current Saturn collection, including all controllers, games, and peripherals.

I followed my dreams of Saturn, and a little money here and there went a long way.
