Well, I only just stumbled across this site by chance.. to be honest, I'm surprised I didn't come across it sooner!

There may be some who know me from other communities. My name is Mark, and I am the owner of saturn-planet.com (currently offline but I have plans for it when time permits).

Hmm, what else to say? I have a wide variety of interests, including video games (all formats!), music, movies... the usual, really!

I have a qualification in Music Production, but have spent several years working as a Computer Technician.

Hello, all! I am a 24 year old historian-in-training and vintage gaming enthusiast from the southern US, that infamous cradle of civilization and tolerance.:lol:

I have a substantial Saturn collection, but only recently purchased a Netlink from Amazon after reawakening my 12 year old interest in this underappreciated peripheral.
I will have Sega Rally and Virtual On, and hopefully at some point a landline! (I have had only a cellphone as a direct line of communication for years) I look forward to hopefully playing some of you in the future. Moreso than that, I am intrigued by the prospect of taking the dated, lethargic Saturn PlanetWeb browser online, if for no other reason than to say I've done it. Any info/help the community could bestow would be appreciated. Oh well, this is running a bit long for an introduction, so I'll just say it's a pleasure to meet you all!

Hello to both of you!!

Hopefully you can provide some new Netlink competition. People come and go every month or so. Feel free to hit me up for a match sometime.

Or just hang around and chat about Saturn :)

If you need help with the PlanetWeb browser, let us know. There are several methods of getting it to work. :)

Hi, I just joined when I saw someone was in the same city as me. I bought a NetLink about an hour ago on ebay and will have to hunt down some games, but hopefully I'll be playing real soon!
I lost all my teeth in a deathmatch because... I'm straight teeth are for gay people, that's why fairies come and get 'em.

welcome to the forum! 4 of the games are easy to find and usually affordable (although i think saturn bomberman price can vary).

I was thinking about Saturn Bomberman & Duke Nukem 3D the most as I am familiar with those, but I still have to wait until my NetLink comes in the mail. :)

Nocturne which city do you live in? You said you saw someone that lives in your city. I know we have a Buffalo (me) and a Rochester on here :)

Utica, I saw that KronixKid22 is from here too but looks like he has no NetLink. I can call anyone in the 315 area code, but I told them I didn't want to even be able to dial long distance. Verizon didn't like that much because they can't fake long distance charges, so I'm stuck in a small calling area or just receiving calls.

Welcome to the site! I'm sure you'll have fun once you get in some netlink matches. I'm sure there's quite a few people here willing to dial you. My broke ass can't dial out either and I've had a few good netlink matches. :D
