Saturn Sega Ages Fantasy Zone

Its seems there is a buried treasure out there somewhere! This game will be really cool on the Saturn.... Does anyone know what the story is? I'm not seeing any viable download links for it :()

If I'm not mistaken, that was a Japanese only port of Fantasy Zone. You can definitely find it on Internet Archive (while it's still a thing, bleh). The repo has multiple other versions if you search for Fantasy Zone, I don't know if there was anything unique to the console collections, I've only really played the arcade game.

Found a CHD on edgeemu.net.... Oh and there is cue/bin on Archive de la Internet on the Ghostware list :)

I've only really played the arcade game.

About that, I'm just trying to get the STV game going on RetroArch with Kronos. Its going to a nifty red error screen with OpaOpa running along the bottom. Just saying 'Error 10: ROM has changed' & 'Press RESET to reboot'. Only allowing me to quit out. Any thoughts?

No idea, like I said I've only played it in the arcade. Haven't emulated it personally. Might try your luck with MAME instead of Kronos though.

I need to get more invested in the FZ series.

Yea it looks really good on the Saturn with some little extras in the options too. Got me thinking that I can see what put it it the top ranking for Japanese arcade machine turnover, ever. Its lighthearted, yet punishing actually requiring alot of concentration. Turbo mode is a must I think!!

The best release of Fantasy Zone 2 DX is stuck on the 3DS...

Hello!
I want to ask, how do you find the Saturn port of Fantasy Zone, all these months later? Is it still a fun version of the game to play?
