As the years go by, I'm more and more convinced that the Saturn is the most underrated console ever created.
It has to some extent received a bit of a reevaluation in the retro community, but as a whole it's still looked at as "the system that killed Sega" or "a complete and utter flop", both of which are nowhere near to the truth.
I still remember importing EGM during those years as I had been since issue 50, and the way they treated the Saturn, when just a few years prior, they couldn't stop themselves from hyping up the 3DO... that still leaves a bad taste in my mouth to this day.
European magazines weren't much better either for the most part, although there were exceptions like CVG, Joypad and as I've discovered this year, GamesMaster.
So many absolute brilliant games on the system that never got their due.
At times a little hard to get into, but with so much hidden depth and just a pure joy to play.
