    Let's see who has the coolest looking saturn!! You guys have 30 days to post your best looking saturn and mods.

    I'll be looking for best paint, best tech mods, and most factory looking mod.

    This could be really exciting, and with a saturn hovering around $9, not an expensive one for sure.

    What of the computer contest?

    I wish I had a second Saturn to toy with - but they're extremely hard to come by around here.

    Um, I just have a standard looking white NTSC-J Saturn. But it does have a switchless multiregion chip installed. :-D

    Out of interest, how are the wireless Saturn pads? Are they IR and require line-of-sight, or RF? Could be a cool mod to put the receiver inside the case.

    Hope Ben Heckendorn gets wind of this. Be very impressed if he pulls off a nice quality portable Saturn.

    Well there's my classic silver saturn :)

    Here in Japan we can get junk Saturns for 200 yen !!! They may or may not work but for a mod job do you really need it to work?

    Yakumo I was trying to not make them feel bad, and there you go and tell them the Japan price. The working ones are 500 yen kiddies.

    Hell you can make it into a shabushabu pot, as long as it's original and creative.

    I've only got one saturn and it's modded. Only a simple 60hz modification but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out:
