    That's a good one (also featured somewhere around here by Yakumo) but I will still say Princess Crown is the best 2D feat of the Saturn, and maybe 32-bit 2D console gaming. Keio Yuugekitai Katsugekihen in second maybe? Moving sprites are far trickier than very nice backgrounds.

    Thanks Yakumo, that was pretty eye-opening. Especially since I'd never play the game myself.

    I also like how Game Arts took advantage of individual platforms. Another good example is how they put the 4MB RAM cart to good use in a 3D game (Gungriffon 2).

    what? Gun Griffon 2 uses the 4MBIT RAM? Are you sure? I know it uses he Saturn Link Cable but that's about it.

    Just remember people NANATSU is being translated to spanish and possibly english in the future by one of the most serious community translators in Spain!.

    no but it did come packed with the link cable. Maybe VMS saw that and thought it was a 4MBRAM set?

    Sorry, again I think I'm going senile. I guess the 3D was so improved over Gungriffon 1 I thought it used an upgrade :lol:
    I own it and knew it never came with the cart... I only imagined it used it :redface:

    Final Fight Revenge uses it... F that game.

    Yes, Final Fight Revenge is bloody awful. Believe it or not but I even saw that crap in an arcade once next to Virtua Fighter Kids.
