    I don't believe I've seen one of these before. Anyone know if it's worth the asking price? I'm not buying one (yet) just wondering.;-)

    It's PAL, therefore it's worth whatever you'd pay for a paper weight seeing how you're in the US. Also it's pre-PAL60, so no matter where you are, it sucks. Unless you are going to modify it to run at 60hz, why bother. I mean I guess you could if you wanna collect it for some reason.

    Actually it's PAL-M (which is different from the regular PAL format).

    You can use cheap transcoders to output NTSC signal.

    Anyway, i think the Saturn and the Dreamcast sold by Tectoy were NTSC. (Although PAL-M was the format used in Brazil, since the early 90's, all TV's are PAL-M/PAL-N/NTSC compatible)

    Its NTSC. Its the Brazilian Saturn.


    I don't think its worth the price of what its going for on Ebay ($250). I've seen them go for $100-150. I got mine for $140ish.

    sorry for the thread jack. ^ ^
    anyone know what's the value on Samsung Saturn - full set an console only?

    reason I'm asking is I'm offered these from the seller in Seoul - incidentally it's the same seller I turned down when we discussed back in Aug when I was in Seoul.

    again sorry for the thread jack!

    I don't know the value, but I am interested in one. Also, I am looking for games released in this area. Let me know if you can get some of them.
