The Sega Saturn NetLink League

i've had this netlink for a while and have yet to play any games. Well i'm moving in may and when i move no more free long distance! So anyone that has sega rally or vurtua on. let me know if and when you want to play. And I will dial.

I've got both those games, and I'll be available to play for most of next week.

awesome i'll PM you when I can play

Sounds awesome, I wish I could grab some netlink games though...

Anyway..there is a start and Duke Nukem is very reasonable if you don't have it already

Good to see some games being arrnaged btw

I really recommend that you start by going to google shopping, and trying something like "duke nukem 3d saturn." It's probably the most easily available NetLink game. Try all different variants of the term and see what you can find. After that move onto stores that sell used games. The key to finding NetLink games is to look in places that aren't obvious, or at least aren't as obvious as going to ebay. Ebay can be great sometimes, but when it comes to used Saturn hardware or games, prices are usually inflated. So to sum it up, search on google shopping, search for online used game stores, and try to vary your search as much as possible, and go for it. If you have to go ebay, maybe try "buy it now." I think with just a little bit of time you should be able to find everything you need (except maybe Daytona CCE NetLink Edition).

I'll play as soon as I get my modchip working, or I get another modchip. Hopefully I'll get it working soon so I can play. If not I'll just try and work with the swap trick. If you wanna contact em jsut try to get me on AIM, MSN MEssenger or Yahoo messenger because usually when I'm on there I'm usually free to play.

I wish I could find them cheaper than I am right now though. Most I see are around $30 and I'm in high school without a job. I make $25 a month...

Welcome to my life =P
I'm riding off of christmas funds still....and i think this chip is broken so im like....screwed....for awhile....

awesome to see people interested in playing, hopefully i'll be able to play some time soon i'll be sure to hit up as many people as i can

I'm not sure, but I don't think the swap method will work for these games, since once you connect the game reboots, which would again trigger the security check. Has anyone successfully swapped in an direct dial game?

Well once I find someone availible who can dial to me I'll give it a shot...I got a model 1 so the swap trick is much easier so maybe you just gotta do the swap trick twice to make it work....hopefully I'll be able to report back soon.

Hobo Joe and I gave it a shot last night and we tried several times with different setting. We couldn't connect.

If anyone else wants to try just let me know. I REALLY want to NetLink and will do everything I can to help out. I still have everything set up from trying last night with Hobo Joe. I'll keep everything out for the next week or so, if anyone happens to PM me we can have a go on a moments notice.

I think when I get some money I'm gonna but another netlink and a saturn and do some tests. It might have just been the fact that I was using a burnt copy of the game....but it seems unlikely.

Guys, what stage did you get to before it disconnected? I'm suspecting it might really be the burnt copy. As someone here said before, the game does have to restart after the modems are connected, and probably does another check for official software.
