Saturn emulation

[oesii]

Just found out this weekend that there's a functional Saturn emulator making the rounds on the Sega binary newsgroups. It's the Giri Giri emu that Sega was going to license to resell Saturn games over broadband in Japan, someone got the code and hacked it so I'm not so sure of ethics of this particular emulator.

 

It works pretty well, I took 2 of my Saturn CDs (Nights and Guardian Heroes) and ripped them into .bin files to play on my PC. The framerate still gets choppy with a lot of onscreen action but the games are definetely playable. Still its cool seeing the Saturn get emulated in a desktop window
