While browsing through a used game store today I saw a decent copy of the Saturn game Winning Post. It is apparently about horse racing. Just like a car racing game with a career mode, you buy and sell your horses, prep them and bet on, or against, them. It looks like a fairly obscure title and it was pricey at $40.
Has anyone heard of it or had an experience playing it? I couldn't find any reviews of it.
Obscure Saturn game: Winning Post, anyone ever heard of it?
They're still making Winning Post games, but they appeal to only a very niche market, so they don't make many copies, from what I can tell. I used to work at a video game store, and we got one or two of the newest version in while I worked there... over the course of two years.

There you are. A couple links that talk about or mention the first Winning Post game for the Saturn.

I have my Saturns, I have some of my games, I have a RasPi. Gotta put all this stuff together!
$40 is a good price for a complete one. It's one of the most expensive games for the system, since at this point it's still the only Winning Post game to be converted and playable in English NTSC. It's a cool sim game, too, definitely a game worthy of the price if you're into that sort of thing. Copies on eBay usually fetch like $55-75 in complete good condition.
That's fly.
I originally asked Scooter to buy it and send it to me for 40$ because of its interesting game play but I put 40 towards getting Bomberman at the time. I hope some day I come around to finding this.grolt wrote:$40 is a good price for a complete one.

Hey, you can't go wrong with Bomberman. I'd pick that over Post, but this is a NetLink form, so you'd think we all would. Still, definitely give it a shot if you find it cheap. I've seen a few eBay auctions go for much less than usual, since although rare the game does have a limited appeal.xDerekRx wrote:I originally asked Scooter to buy it and send it to me for 40$ because of its interesting game play but I put 40 towards getting Bomberman at the time.
