Samsung Saturn games

(bigger pic here)

Never seen one before. Are there more Samsung games?

 

Wow, nice find !! The front looks just like the Japanese version apart from the nasty looking Samsung logo where the Sega one should be on the left side. The back looks like the very early Saturn games for the Asian market, thanks to that big black boarder.

Yakumo

 

Yes there are, came with the Samsung Saturn, which was sold in.. err, Hong Kong, I believe. I remember at least 3.. IIRC.

Someone was supposed to be selling me one, but disappeared

 

Samsung saturn was korea I believe, Samsung being a korean company - The idea being that koreans would buy a console made by a korean company, not a Japanese one

 

Indeedy:

 

too cool. I love the korean answer to the pcengine.

 

Nice find man. It's cool to see the differences of game consoles in diferent countries.

 

Yes, there are more. I've seen a Nights and I'll post a pic of it when I'll get home (unfortunately I missed the original cd ).

 

Yup, it is Korean.

I have some pictures somewhere, I will dig em out too!

Oh and Lawrence has a machine.....

That MS GamBoy jobbie is very cool. Especially the pad. Crazy different shaped carts too.

I do like the MD though. Was the Mega CD ever released in Korea? Iirc, they removed the expansion pins on the Korean PCE.

 

That was how the Japanese Mark III carts were shaped as well.

 

Where these only sold packaged with consoles, or where they available separately? I wonder if having the Samsung logo helped sales of this console, even though it is still an officially licensed version of the Japanese Saturn.

Anyone have a list of the titles that where released in the Korean packaging? When you compared this to the Japanese Sega Rally, did you see any differences?


^_^_^

 

some strage reason people I asked in Seoul don't recall ever seeing Samsung Saturn???

 

cehcked ebay korea and not a single saturn in sight only a fighters megamix for sale.

 

They are NOT common items to come across...remember that. Even Lawrence has only seen 2, and he's had 3 Navi Saturns and a Hotel Saturn! Oh, and wasn't it Lawrence who had that first Sonic Saturn to hit eBay?

I could only find one pic amongst my backups.....

*EDIT*...but its not staying, don't wanna cause a dispute! It was obtained from the original seller, but if any board members want to prove it was THEIR picture, then please take another picture of the CD and we'll use that instead

 

Hotel Saturn? whats that? A Saturn for Hotel use? heh.

 

Well done!!!

I mean the SunSeibu SGX. He sold it now, I believe.

 

let's face it who want that monstrosity in their room - unless you have love hotel to run...

 

I'd love an SGX! It would have to be unused, though!!!!

OK, well you'll almost never see a Samsung Saturn on "eBay" Korea. And you'll NEED to know someone in Korea to get an account. Damn, that registration process is hard! It took me near enough an hour to get my head round it!!!

 

Is it still like that in So. Korea where japanese companies have to release their products under korean company names?
