The Saturn is not a system you think about when it comes to digital Pinball, but there are in fact quite a few pinball games on the System. Here we go with every Sega Saturn Pinball game ranked!

That running animation is so impressive for the time. Easy to see why people would pick up Trantor even if the gameplay ain’t so great.
Nick Bruty and Dave Perry… graphics pioneers in those days and into the 90’s.

Yeah, it is pretty cool for the age of the game. Justa shame no thought was put in to the actual enemy placement. I mean, Metroid came out a year earlier and this is kind of like that in a vague way so there’s no excuse.
Anyway, new video up today as I go to what is now Japan’s best game store chain.

It’s a Saturday, so that can only mean some battle of the Ports action.
This week we’re taking a look at Gals Panic 4 which did get home releases under different names.

How would you live a GBA with HDMI out? The Ambernic RG34XX could be right up your street.

It’s time to correct a video that I made 10 years ago. This is Battle of the Ports Remastered version of Super Hang-On.

Did the developers honestly beleive in this game?
This week on Battle of the Ports we take a look at Johnny Bazookatone.

I want to give you likes on these posts but I feel like I’d be encouraging you to cover more crap games like these? 😆
