Saturn Question about Sega Ages

[TamagotchiTamaHero24's icon TamagotchiTamaHero24 TamagotchiTamaHero24]

So, I have a JP model 2 Saturn. If I was to find and invest in the U.S. release of Sega Ages, which compiles the games into one disc, and use Action Replay to region bypass, would there be any issue? Can anybody who has the game confirm operation of games like Outrun and After Burner?

The white Saturn...? Cooool! ?
Well, as far as I can remember, NA games should work without issues on a JP console.

Well, the model 2 infamously has issues with but a few titles, mainly the superscaler ports that SEGA put out.

Oh, I didn't remember that... ?
Anyway, great console.

I have read that the Action Replay carts are supposed to work on Japanese consoles the same as they do on NA consoles, so there shouldn’t be a problem with that. But I have not actually tried one.

As far as I know, the Saroo should also work to bypass the region lock in the same way, for what it’s worth.

I have a Japanese Saturn and haven't had any issues playing US games on it, but then again, it is a model 1 Saturn.
