i mean considering that the sega saturn had alot of japanese games there can be some weird ones since the playstation has it's fare share of weird games(japan only or not) and i figured "well what about the sega saturn" however don't know much games that can considered weird so yeah
 
Well for example:

This guy was huge mascot of Sega Saturn's weird advertizements so its game naturally weird too lol:

Considering majority of saturn games was Japan only, it's not hard to do
Did you know there was Civilization game for Saturn and it was released only in Japan, that's pretty weird right?

I agree that the term "weird" is kind of unfair here. It has kind of bad connotation. We could say "rare", as these games were unknown to western audiences and even to many japanese people as well :S
There is actually a mathematical formula to find what is "weird":

Weird = Absurdity x Unrealistic

For example this game is weird:


Because it's unrealistic due to fish have a human head, and then all situation is made absurd because how silly and intense it's. This is a scientific formula here!!! lol
 
Japan had some off-the-wall Saturn GOLD!

Waku Waku 7
Fighting game. Also a neo geo joint. Wild AF.

Astra Superstars
Fighting game. All the characters are suspended in the air and its super fast-paced!

Radiant Silvergun
Shooter. A Treasure joint. Recently released on the Switch, etc.

Silhouette Mirage
Platformer/Action-shooter game. Another Treasure joint. There's a whole whole wacky color-coded theme to this game (Like how Ikaruga does). Has an English patch in the repo.

Bulk Slash
Action/flight/shooter. Really interesting 3D action mech romp. Fast-paced! Has an uncanny mix of 2D sprites in 3D space but it works so damn well. Has an English patch.

Steamgear Mash

Action run-&-gun game. Has a way wild 3D-isometric P.O.V. Really wacky. Low-key fav of mine. (NEEDS and English patch).

Ninpen Manmaru
3D platformer. It's got its "of the era jank" and is hard as nails. But once you get the hang of it it's actually a blast (puts Croc to shame, IMO). It's based off a children's program from what I understand. Has an English patch in the repo.

Shinrei Jusatsushi Taroumaru
Platformer/Action game. Absolute sleeper bop! I hate comparing to other titles but it's like if OG Castelvania boned Shinobi 3 and had a super-baby. Has a really awesome "2.5D" thing going on. Well worth the time.

Seaman if you can believe it isn't even the wierdest Voice Control game given there is a Somewhat successor to Seaman on the Xbox Japan only called N.U.D.E where you are teaching an anime Android girl to do things
