Thanks for the tips! I snagged a copy of Sega Rally (Netlink) and a backup Netlink for under $20 combined! (Now to wait impatiently for them to arrive...!) If I can pick up a spare Saturn for cheap as well, I could do a lot of testing by myself right at home. ^_^ And with any luck (probably not), th...

Okay, I'll admit that I could be wrong on this. I read it from another website, and they could be wrong. However, it sounds plausible enough, and I wouldn't be surprised if it still holds true in certain cases, but is simply a less common occurrence. Maybe only certain games used as swap discs have ...

Btw, there is no problems about the disk being larger than the original disk It's not a matter of the disc being larger; it's a matter of the track being larger. The security ring is always in the same place, no matter what, so that's not the issue. However, the data tracks are varying sizes. If th...

Heh, he's lucky. I didn't know what I was getting into when I first bought my Saturn, and I got a Model 1. I've known now for a couple weeks what a pain it'll be to get a modchip working for my system. When my modchip gets here, I'm going to have a LOT of fun rewiring it. :sarcasm: Oh, well. I like ...

You don't use a modchip for the region switch.
There's a guide at:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/saturn/file/916393/6458
in section IX, but there's photo guides elsewhere online. A Google search will find something easily.

The Saturn is an interesting system in that there are two major problem points for imports and backups: the region code, and the copy-protection. A modchip only overrides the second problem: copy protection. This means that your Saturn could play a burned disc, but only if it has the same region cod...

It should work. You tell it what phone number to dial. Distance could make a difference, though. I've heard that long-distance Netlink calls aren't very stable. There are a few reasons I wouldn't recommend using the swap trick: 1) It damages your drive motor. Maybe not a lot, but it adds up over tim...

Thank you very much for your help, is this online service free though? Or do you need to do the same thing you had to do with the Dreamcast and pay for it. If you already have a standard, dial-up land line, it's free. (It won't work over digital phone services (e.g. VoIP) though.) The US Netlink di...

Were there even Netlink games for the PAL system.....? I don't anticipate there being problems using the US Netlink on a PAL system, because the hardware is pretty much identical across all the regions, but the US Netlink games would be a different story. You can't play US games on a PAL system, not...
