Sega Saturn - 4meg Cart Games

[ferricide]

a weirder, more obscure game that supports (but does not require it) is sunsoft's astra super stars.

it's a cute fun game. i picked it up toward the tail end of saturn because i liked the logo. i am not kidding. it's related to the wakuwaku7, galaxyfight stuff. i don't really understand how that "series" works.

ASS (ha!) also works with the 1m cart or without any cart at all.

it plays kind of like you'd imagine a DBZ game might if it were fun. =) you are always floating in the air, you dash around and beat the snot out of one another, with wacky moves. it's neato.

I've got that exact action replay, and it works great for D&D Collection, which is the only cart-supporting game i have right now...

Backing up saves and playing Imports has worked just fine as well

Nope, you can't save directly to the cart.

That's the only problem I have with it, and hardly a reason to pass it up.

I need to replace the battery that's currently in my Saturn. What kind of battery is it?

CR2032, same as the DC VMU.

The Japanese versions of Pocket Fighter and Marvel Super Heroes are both allegedly enhanced by the 4 MB cart, though it is not necessary.

actually i prefer to play Marvel Superheroes without the extra animations that the cart offers, seems to slow down the game some. also i only play on the shuma gorath bg, least sprite animation. I wish that port had the polished feel of the Xmen vs. SF port.

Other 1 meg supported games include:

Groove On Fight
Waku Waku 7
Cyberbots

I believe there was a strip mahjong game, Super Real Mahjong P7 I think, that also supported the 4 meg option.

Isn't Cotton 2 compatible with the 1MB and 4MB carts? I think it only uses 1MB in either case.

AFAIK, using a RAM cart with Cotton 2 will get you some extra sounds.

Steam Hearts and Welcome to Pia Carrot 2 also use 4MB cards in some way...

Seems weird that such a similar device could easily be made for PS/2 and yet nobody even tries.

Seems like someone forgot Astra Superstars (but that game is forgettable alright).
