100 Japan-Exclusive Saturn Games!

100 Sega Saturn games that remained in Japan...in 20 minutes!
NOTE: I am aware that many of these were released in other regions in the arcades or on the PS1 - but none of them made it to the Saturn in those regions.
It's a real shame that some of these titles didn't make it over as there are a few real gems in here. A few weren't missed - and there are some typical Japanese weirdness titles in there. All in all, a great selection.

INCREDIBLE game Library! I just got myself a Terraonion for Saturn, I literally went through this video and grabbed each title from my shelves.

[@pacomikealpha]

Never knew Saturn had so many great games. Amazing console.

[@daisukegori2112]

Blame video game magazines whp hated anything not Nintendo.

[@HollowRick]

​@@daisukegori2112 and the PlayStation fanboy magazines like Die hard game fan

[@m.jordan5181]

​@@HollowRickDon't forget "Next Generation". That was a serious Sony propaganda magazine.

[@saintkyo]

Great vid, thanks

[@aceofhearts573]

Great list. Love the Saturn. Damn you Bernie Stollar for banning a ton of Japanese games from coming out in America

[@m.jordan5181]

Ol' Bernie was on a mission...

[@BillsOldandNewGaming]

Thanks for the vid. I've got as many English titles as I want but was looking to boost the library for my MiSTer and Steam deck and there are a bunch of great looking titles here.

SEGA - "We have Zero Clue as to WHY the SATURN Failed in the WEST"

[@tetraphobie]

12:37 Not gonna lie, I chuckled.

[@RedRanger2001]

Gekirindan should be on here. Yes, it's on the Saturn only in Japan, but it's subpar compared to the original arcade.

[@marciorodrigo6863]

That's where the gold is

[@sylvainrousselle6506]

amazing video games 🕹♥ .

[@kendallnoelcamachohernande864]

El Sega Saturn es como tener un Jaguar, elegante, hermoso.

[@BobbyHo2022]

Long live the 2d era! This is amazing. I always hated the move to 3d back in the mid 90s. Soo ugly.

[@m.jordan5181]

The Saturn's sprites have aged like fine wine. But most of the "Playstation era polygons" look like sh!t today". Such irony.

[@BobbyHo2022]

@@m.jordan5181 but so do the saturns polygons... lol. Virtua cop 2 I can handle but not Daytona or Sega Rally.

[@adamthomas1246]

I see why saturn did better than ps1 in japan now.

[@SAMTHEMANTHATCAN]

The Saturn didn't do better than the PS1 in Japan. It was however close until Final Fantasy 7 came out in early 1997 and the Saturn did end up outselling the N64

[@TheDayd111returns]

@@SAMTHEMANTHATCAN True! Sega had answers to both Nintendo and Playstation when it comes to games. PS has Resident Evil... Sega has Deep Fear. PS had Gran Turismo but Sega has Rally Championship and Daytonna. Not only did FF7 defeated Sega but Sony also had Crash Bandicoot that gave Mario and Sonic a run for their money. Saturn failed in America because people wanted an actual main title Sonic game. All US Sega fans got was a Sonic racing game, a compilation genesis titles game and a 3D Blast Saturn port game. I believe the lack of actual Sonic games killed the Saturn. Perhaps if Sonic Adventure came out for the Saturn instead of the Dreamcast, I think that game alone would have saved the console.

[@Ostnizdasht206]

Fan translators doing gods work out here.

[@suntianxi]

Great vid, do you know which of them are SS exclusive also?

[@RedRanger2001]

He meant games that are on the Sega Saturn exclusively in Japan.

[@oscarjimenezgarrido7591]

​@@RedRanger2001 I'm pretty sure the OP understood the video's title and what it meant just fine - he's simply asking a different, although thematically related question.

[@outfoxmedia5090]

Saturn didn’t failed, Sega doomed it.

[@ricardoh87]

well said

[@davidmacias1270]

No, Saturn failed….😔

[@1776Sledge]

Cool

[@nezxd5516]

A Lot better than psx.

[@MAL-Collector]

Not better. Just as good! The only good PlayStation did. Was PS1 and ps2. I would miss. Spyro. Crash. Racthet & clank. Jak & daxter. And so on. There where many great games! I do have a big Saturn European pal collection. 74 games 😆🤘 so I do love Saturn aswell!

[@christian9146]

LoL that's why ps1 outsold that console

[@albertodiez4215]

La mayoría de estos juegos no eran mínimamente comerciales en occidente. Pero hay algunos muy buenos que habrían dado buen resultado en occidente

[@caseyhayes4590]

There are like 50 games here that should have been localized and it doesnt even include the best games like Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Shining Force III scenario 2 and 3. PCE had a lot of good games left in Japan but Saturn had easily over 100 that deserved US/EU release.

[@9ner]

What was SoJ thinking not bringing half of these games over to the states...oh yeah that's right they weren't thinking at all.

[@Reeveyz07]

Harumichi Bouya got game?!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@thereaper9149]

Everything on here is 200 to 500 bucks damn near lol fuck

[@gamexentralx]

I had most of these games but my go to was usually Shienryu

[@MagnoPR333]

51. Mechanical Violator 🤔🙀

[@ElricSowrd]

So are these games not only Exclusive to Japan, but Exclusive to the Saturn as well? I forgot that Saturn had Princess Crown and Bomberman.

[@GaryRetroGamer]

No; some of these also appeared on the PlayStation. But only in Japan.

[@freddyvidz]

Did I miss Shining Force 2 & 3?

[@ooommm4024]

I got a giggle over the game listed as Liver Story. I definitely saw nothing hepatically related, but there were tons of rivers present!

[@21LuisLuna21]

✌️

[@timkasansky2528]

tons of games but most pretty low budget and audience oriented games. so nothing that's actually pushing the system so we could really see what it can really do with proper development tools.

[@azat8857]

К-1 👍

[@GokilAja-si8ix]

Good game only in japan so very

[@obsoleteworlds]

A shame every single one of them goes for hundreds of dollars. Saturn must be the only niche system where Japanese imports are more expensive than Western releases.

[@Martschy]

gunbird is not saturn exclusive i guess.

[@GaryRetroGamer]

"Exclusive" in this video means "exclusively released in Japan". See the video description for more details.

[@Martschy]

@@GaryRetroGamer ah ok :) a video about Saturn exklusive Games would be cool.

[@diegokasady]

Saturn was better than Xbox and GameCube

[@9ner]

i wouldn't go that far but it was a competitor with the n64 despite not having a goldeneye or super mario 64/zelda. way more games to enjoy.

[@Torico94]

Saturn 😑👍

[@azat8857]

Класс

[@freddyvidz]

Too bad the American Saturn games didn’t look as good as most of these.

[@samt7756]

I really want to get into JP Saturn collecting because I thought it would be cheaper than the crazy US prices right?? But a lot of these ones in into are also going for hundreds of dollars! I just want to hold a game in my hands and play like the old days and practice my rusty Japanese and not keep emulating it’s just not fair :((

[@etienneghada2349]

If they kept good and colorful games for them, no wonders why Saturn did not well in Europe... lol As a kid I always found my Saturn bland not as fun and imaginative as a PS1 or N64... some of them are still just arcade and nothing cant be compared to Ocarina or mario 64, crash etc but still the machine shows potentials.

[@segasaturn6800]

I want everything here 🥲
