      I agree that this is a top notch channel, but I'm curious on what basis would you say that he's "the best"? To be clear, I'm aware that that's one of those "impossible arguments" that can't actually have an answer due to its inherently subjective nature. He's far from the most in-depth (My Life in Gaming, Digital Foundry, Square Eyed Jak, so so many are much more in depth). I'm sure you'll agree that this isn't the "funniest" gaming channel (Larry Bundy Jr and Square Eyed Jak and Rerez and many others make humor a main part of the content, unlike SegaLord). What's left? Sure, it's very entertaining, but if your criteria is "the one that entertains me the most", I hope you are aware of how divisive that is. That's the can of worms you open when you state extremely generalized opinions like that. At the end of the day though, I know you're just sharing your opinion, but so am I, and I'm pointing out that the reasons you are using to make this your favorite gaming channel are likely very good reasons that this is NOT the best gaming channel. That's the magic of the internet though, there doesn't HAVE to be a "best channel". A big part of the problem with giving compliments in the way you have is the diversity of gamers, after all, and that's actually a good thing. We shouldn't have to agree on what is a "best gaming channel" because different channels are better for different people. Retro gaming is such broad topic anyway. Heck, if you're really a gaming enthusiast, your favorite retro gaming channel might be modders like Voultar and not even a "retrospective" channel like this.

    I remember going into electronics boutique wanting to buy X-Men v Street Fighter for the PlayStation and the guy behind the counter told me that he you should get the Saturn version which is better. But then I was a PlayStation card and it really wasn’t much of the Saturn that really appeal to me but I went ahead and bought it anyway a used Saturn, ram cart and a copy X-men v Street Fighter when electronics boutique had sold Japanese games in store. When I played it at home I was blown away as it was damn near arcade perfect. I was so impressed that I return do you Saturn bought it new that came with three games, two extra controllers, the multi tap, and I bought Saturn Bomberman. A month after that I bought radiant silver gun, and Dragon Ball Z legends. I’ve been a Sega fan since…

    I wish Cyberbots' console ports got English releases, because while the Arcade original is, the console versions also added new content like a mech based on Akuma, and 3 new pilots (who were already in the Arcade game as NPCs but now have their own stories). I don't think any of that is in the recent Capcom Arcade collection either.

    I remember the day that the MK2 port was released in the stores such as Electronic Boutique. It was such a disappointment for something that should have been more than an Arcade perfect conversion. If they worked hard to make the game arcade perfect and packaged in MK1, it would have sold aplenty even though it arrived well after the 16-bit releases. If I remember, the only MK I purchased on the Sega Saturn was Ultimate MK3, which was a spectacular conversation (perfect even). It was so good that if you were excellent on the Saturn version, you could easily conquer the arcade version as well.

    I still have Mortal Kombat 2 on the Saturn, and here's an issue that I found with it. Any Fatality that requires you to start holding a button during the fight is impossible to pull off as the timer resets at "Finish Him!" Mileena's man eater (3 seconds) is still possible. Both of Raiden's fatalities (6&8 seconds) or Shang Tsung's Kintaro morph (25 seconds) I've never been able to do.

    It would be interested to have a Arcade vs. Dreamcast. I think there's lots of Arcade games that came to the Dreamcast, such as Soul Calibur, NFL Blitz 99 (2000 - home version), Power Stone, etc. That's a lot of work to do the Arcade vs. Dreamcast Chronicles. 😔 I still miss the Sega Dreamcast - so much memories...

    Sega Saturn in 1995 when I was 17! Only to come home disappointed when I found out how bad it sucked balls so much was missing and and I assumed to rather play the Genesis port instead. While the Sega Saturn version of pit fatality looked good... The gameplay was like Silly Putty you gave Mortal Kombat 2 Sega Saturn way more good points and credit for being good then I did. My favorite HomePort is Mortal Kombat 2 Genesis 32x for right now ‼️🙏🏻☯️🧘‍♂️

    I like this series a lot. I really loved having a Saturn when it was current because arcade games were my main interest in those days. There were plenty of console exclusives, some of them quite fantastic like Dragon Force, but I always would go back to arcade and arcade-style games as the core of my library. In the early days of the Saturn, I was more about 3D because it was the new thing. Sega was really good at 3D arcade game design then. Later in the system's lifespan, I gravitated back toward 2D largely thanks to the RAM cart games, with fighters being a big part of that, with Marvel Superheroes, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Samurai Shodown 4, and King of Fighters 97 being highlights for me. I know where you're coming from with the approach to Fighting Vipers compared to Virtua Fighter 2. I didn't have Fighting Vipers, but when I had Fighter Megamix, I wished it had Virtua Fighter 2's resolution. On the flip side, I wished VF2 had Megamix's additional graphics effects.
    I see in the notes part three is coming. I know KOF '97 and Virtual On are already on your radar, but I do look forward to those two. I've been recently playing Virtual On 2 for Dreamcast and have been having a lot of fun. The original was one of the true highlights of my Saturn library. It's also one of my favorite gaming memories because I saw a TV commercial for the game and just thought it looked cool without knowing what it was. Because it was a Sega arcade game, I trusted it would likely be good so I bought it not knowing what to expect and it turned out to be different from what I thought, but more fun than I imagined. KOF '97 was a great gaming memory for me too, but I've shared that one before.

    Damn, I use to love Akclaim, especially Team Iguana back in the day. I had MK2 on the 32X so I didn't bother with the Saturn version. The 32X MK2 was solid, characters were a bit small for it's time but they were clean. I think the background was the Genesis version with foreground and characters updated using the 32X power. On the Saturn had MK 3 Ultimate which solid besides the mesh transparency on some the characters like Smoke.

    • @sloppynyuszi
      @sloppynyuszi 2 роки тому +1

      DF retro did a deep dive on this. The backgrounds were drawn by the Mega Drive, but because the mega drive wasn’t doing anything else like characters and UI, they were able to use more colours.
      They have done a whole breakdown on each 32X game and what was done by the ad on and what was done by the main system. On some games it’s really surprising how little the 32x actually does. Knuckles Chaotix is basically a 16 bit game with the 32 X only doing some Sprite work for scaling effects and the 3D bonus stage.
      The videos are super interesting they did.

    • @hababacon
      @hababacon 2 роки тому +3

      @@sloppynyuszi I can believe it as the backgrounds appears to have the Genesis limited color capabilities complete with dithering. When you think about the 32X and Genesis graphics processing, it's almost the exact way the Saturn uses VDP1&2. Using emulators you can turn off each VDP and segments of the screen will disappear a lot like the Genesis and 32X. Like I've heard the Saturn 3D hardware was bolted on at the last minute making making a 2D system 3D, again similar to the 32X Genesis. Sega in the 90s were weird with two hardware teams always competing against each other.

      @@maroon9273 Sega is over rated with their hardware. They never implemented tech that could imitate their Arcades properly. The Mega Drive didn’t have any scaling capabilities, and when the Mega CD add on did, no one implemented it. Why wasn’t even one super scaler arcade ported to the Mega CD?
      It’s crazy that Sega and Namco basically pioneered the arcades with 3D games and Sega made the Saturn 3D capabilities a last minute thing. Like how do you create Daytona, and not have a home system be able to play a descent home conversion of it. It’s like comparing Master System altered beast to the Arcade.
      And when they finally became a third party company they segmented their games across three platforms, so it was impossible to have all the Sega games without owning the 3 main consoles.
      They published and developed some of my all time favourite games, but their business strategy made it very hard to stay a Sega fan.

      @@hababacon I think as an add on, it’s smart to use a combination of the two systems. I think the 32X is under rated. It’s also a shame the cartridge slot on the Saturn couldn’t play them. It would incentivise more games for it than. It would be the 90s equivalent of the master system card slot, where the smaller games came.

    If you wanted great arcade conversions and didn't want to spend a fortune on a Neo Geo in the 90's, Sega's consoles had some of best of them! Between the Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast, there were a number of excellent arcade ports! The Saturn was an absolute 2D powerhouse and had so many arcade gems (though, many were Japanese-exclusive).
    I actually owned Fighting Vipers on the Saturn, but had never played the arcade version. I still think it is a fantastic fighting game and well worth checking out!

    There is a patch for the kof 95 which allows you to play with a 4mb cartridge ( or an action replay 4mb) instead of the rom cartridge. I do a quick video on my channel this weekend with a versus screen to see if there is any difference in loading times.
