The Sega Saturn NetLink League

Sorry to bump an old topic - but what kind of setup would be needed to achieve this?

If its possible I'd be happy to setup an e-mail hosting program on my Saturn site for Netlink (and SegaNet) users. Could probably do Dreamcast as well.

If that book has any technical info, I would be VERY interested to read it.

Can you read any Japanese?

I'll try to put up a scan and rough translation of the table of contents should it interest anyone.

Sorry to bring back this old topic, but did you try the Japanese NetLink? Found anything interesting? Maybe you could post a video on Youtube or something to show us what it'S like. It sounds pretty interesting, even if it probably doesn't work online anymore I have not had a chance to really play ...

I think Steeldom comes boxed with the cable? At least the Japanese version, I've seen it listed on e-bay often. Might want to consider getting it in that package.

Someone was able to download version 4.0 of the browser with a PC and made a bootable image of it. You can download it from my Saturn site here:

You'll need a modified Saturn to run it; or use the swap trick.

Sounds like I should be good then, I'll try picking one up in the near future

The Floppy Disk drive doesn't seem worth the price, it's really only for collectors of Saturn stuff. I agree. I may try searching Japanese auction sites for it, who knows, might be cheaper to find on there. I'd like one day to get the printer package to to complete the entire Sega Saturn Networks :)

Please explain the swap trick. http://www.sega-saturn.us/backups.htm Scroll down to the swap trick part. I'd only suggest trying it if you have a model 1 Saturn....with a model 2 you really need split second timing. If your ready determined to play this game, either mod your Saturn or play on one o...

Well I counted - 36 games, a bit more then I expected: -Albert Oddessy -Aquazone -Bushidoh Retsuden (Samurai Spirits RPG) -Clockwork Knights -Christmas Nights into Dreams -Darius Gaiden -Deadalus -Fatal Fury 3 -Grandia -Gran Chaser -King of Fighters 95 -Lunar the Silver Star Complete -Mobile Suit Gu...

Yeah I really need more....this is my list (all Japanese): -Standard White Controller -Sega Black Turbo Controller -SegaNet 14.4k modem -Movie Card (aka VCD/MPEG Card) -1/4MB RAM Cart (3rd party; purchased from racketboy.com) I'm hoping soon to pick up an offical Sega memory cartridge and a light gu...

I think I own somewhere between 20 - 30 Japanese games...mabey more lol. Have to count sometime.

Don't own any original American games, but I have practically the entire collection burned on about 30 DVDs.

I wonder what was so different about the Hitachi-Hi Saturn besides the added components and features. I'm curious if any other games have issues with it, as I know the skeleton Saturns have issues with a few games.

I am considering picking up a Netlink Modem sometime in the future. Anyone know if this thing is region-free? I have a Japanese white model 2 Saturn.

I know I would need to region-patch the Netlink games to Japanese region so they would play but how about the modem itself?

There is already private server software for PSO on the PC, Dreamcast, Gamecube. Blue Burst is a also supported, but hasn't been released into the download version yet: http://www.schtserv.com/ Good luck though with the campaign though, mabey Sega will realize they still stand to make a profit if th...

Xranger60 what measures did you take to get rid of all of the spambots?

My almost never used phpbb board on my Saturn site is filled with them. 90% of my registered users are bots I think. Getting sick of cleaning and banning every few days.
