I agree. Saturn is it's own thing, and much more than just the story of its failure.

But I cannot help tell that story, because, like many, I never experienced it. It was simply too expensive. I spent my allowance on my Sega 32X and then my Sega CD and then Sony PlayStation.

There wasn't money or available units in my childhood to buy a Saturn.

As an adult, I don't feel like I know enough about the Saturn to shop for a used console and games, and I suppose don't have the nostalgia to want to spend a lot.

I found it hard to emulate, though maybe I'm not willing to work as hard at it because I'm not really aware what I'm missing.

Anyway, from what I know of the Saturn catalog, Sega would change the narrative decisively, by releasing a Sega Saturn Mini console. Here's hoping!

SegaLordX on YouTube is great for learning about Saturn games
