well looks like my lil ol portable Saturn still stirs things up :P

Yeah, that was the worlds first portable Saturn and it did run off batts. I actually took it for a test run one day and played it on the bus. I ended up scraping the project due to time commitments and yes, breaking too many Saturns ;)

Fortunately I have managed to repair 6 of the Saturns I broke so I may begin the project yet again. It was just burning a whole in my pocket though cause the Saturn is damn easy to fry, slightly expensive ($50ish with shipping) and I went through 11 of them! I gutted the other 5 too much for parts over the years so they were beyond repair :( Now that I have 6 laying around however, it may be worth putting them to some use again.

It's also not a project mentioned on my site because I believe it was before my current webpage was up (that's why it's only only on my Yahoo photos album). And these are the real last pics of the project:

oh, and right now I'm rebuilding/improving the CDX portable ^_^

The Sega Saturn wasn't as good as it could've been. If it wasn't so hard to program for, it could've been great.

The Satrun as a console :(

The Satrun as a handheld 8)

I think the Saturn should share a forum with Dreamcast as they are both disk systems, and they have other things in common.

Saturn should go in the Sega forum. Putting it somewhere else would lower the traffic on the Sega forum even more. I think average now is about a post a day...

I realize the discussion is pretty much settled (Sega forum), but I say, put it in with the Dreamcast as "Dreamcast and Saturn" because the Dreamcast forum is probably the most neglected one here.
