Nope, it's the real deal .

Yakumo

 

Indeed, though they rarely (never?) turn up outside of Korea, it seems.

 

should I ask my brother-in-law about Samsung Saturn?
probably he will know someone or place to get it?

I sent him Chogokin Gundam and Zaku for x-mas present so I guess I will be asking him about after new years... :-D

other than PC Engine clone what else is unique to Korea?
Space Battle Ship for MD?

cheers

 

The Korean Neo Geo, I think.

 

Huh?
there was Korean versionof NeoGeo?
You mean MVS coz haven't seen AES myself?

cheers

 

No, I heard talk of a Korean AES.

 

always thought those AES were nothing more than grey import from Japan... ?

guess another thing to dig around then...
think I will be busy next year when I visit in-laws in Seoul...

 

Master system were also released in korea. http://www.smspower.org/museum/korea/
It seems that it's not very easy to find them (a friend of mine living in japan was in korea for about a week last year, he couldn't find any of those :smt022 )

 

you need to know where to look at and ask many questions as it works like you ask at the shop A and they will refer you to the shop B which in tturn check with the shop D and so on and on... you get the picture...

 

Don't be silly. It is real, and Lawrence wouldn't have it on his site if it wasn't.

I've seen the games for this. They have SamsungSaturn printed on them.

I've been looking for a Samsung Saturn for a while, so if anyone finds one.... :smt023

 

There are PAL (UK) & USA AES consoles easy to get, the Korean Neo Geo AES is called the Vic-A.

 

any chance you know which company imported/cloned(?) it in Korea?

cheers

There's nothing at all special about it, unlike the Samsung Saturn with the custom BIOS. Some new logos silkscreened on the shell is the end of the special.

 

I got a wild hair up my ass and tried to get one of these before leaving Japan. I searched a Korean auction site (desipte the fact I know dick about Korean) and found one for a whopping 2500 yen or so. I was thinking of having a coworker at another branch lift it for me, but eventually gave up.

 

Samsung Saturn BIOS are US BIOS.

 

Most games/systems/BIOS before the PS2 generation in Korea are the US counterparts.
