Saturn Saroo Flashcart | Is it good?

[@nicholsliwilson]

I have a Pseudo Saturn Kai & it’s served me pretty well as a solution but being able to run games from SD card would be worth moving to Saroo. My Saturn’s CD drive isn’t getting any younger after all. Thank you for this, it’s very informative.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

happy its been useful, I do worry about the lasers in some of these consoles so its nice to be able to by pass it. more so when you need to get good quality blank media (I've gotten some blank cd's that you could see through).

[@MastermindAtWork]

Fun Fact: Saturn Saroo still exist to this day. The mascot on the cartridge appears in the game SuperDimension Neptune vs Sega Hard Girls. That's how I managed to recognize her.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

I had no idea the character from the sticker was in a game, I'll have to check it out.

[@NeilAerknard]

actually that was a collab game but they came from another company collab with sega and has a light novel and an anime

[@pentexsucks43]

She also has an anime lol, it's awesome

[@Mitsuraga]

The character is depicted on some versions of the Saroo, but her name is just SEGA Saturn, as she is the personification of the console itself.

That's pretty cool you can run that cart without doing anything to change the console itself. Myself I just soft mod my Saturn with a cart and play discs still but I can see this being a great way to preserve the disc drive in the long run

[@GouldFishOnGames]

I was using a pusdo Saturn Kai cart before to play discs, and it worked fine. but I do like a nice all in one solution.

[@urracojalpa4481]

I have an acrual physical CD mod, but the CD it's quite fussy with copied games. So it's not that great.

[@lain328]

This is on the same level as the Neo Geo CD SD Loader in my book. Anything that leaves the disc drive usable is great, in my opinion.

[@Pyke_]

@lain328 Exactly! That's why I haven't added a ODE on my Dreamcast yet, as there is no ODE option that preserve the drive at the moment

Cool, its been very nice to mess around with. even with the issues with some games.

[@budgiecat9039]

​@@GouldFishOnGames By any chance can you test out this game: Ultraman: Legendary Giant of Light (ウルトラマン 光の巨人伝説, Urutoraman: Hikari no Kyojin Densetsu) That one came with its own RAM cart I could never get it to work as a burned CD even using that Kai cartridge.

[@RetroBytesUK]

That's a really interesting cartridge. Its the sort of thing that would really encourage me to get a Saturn. As I did not fancy having to fix a knackered cd-drive, or add boards to emulate the cd-drives etc, as I don't have the time needed to get round to doing that with console stuff. So it would just end up in my when I get time pile, and it would never make it to the top.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

the never ending backlog, it just grows each time you get a new machine and then again when you get a flash cart 😂

Not seen your Chanel before it was recommended to me. Well after watching you video i ended up ordering one !

[@BloggosPow]

The only issue I have for this is the notoriously iffy Saturn cartridge slot. Still nice and cheap !

[@GouldFishOnGames]

Yeah, I think I hit issues with the slot, as a few times it just wouldn't boot the cart.

[@mutantllamatron]

Very informative video, thanks. With regards what you said about MSH vs SF, I remember trying to play it on my first Saturn, back in late 90s, and I'm pretty sure it's audio skipping was due to it being run on a 50hz (,PAL) machine, so had to do the 50hz/60hz switch mod, its one of the few games that was never optimised for the 50hz machines

[@byronlaw6491]

The Saturn might be my fave system. I’m lucky I had one in the 90s and bar panzer dragoon saga I did get at the time the games that these days are daft money. I do have a Satatior and would highly recommend it despite its high price. This sounds decent alternative tho.

[@natr0n]

I got a fenrir with pseudo saturn cart 1/4mb version on Jp model saturn. Everything works like normal. I have my other saturn stock. Very nice device this is without modding.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

The fenrir looks like a great solution, was planning on getting one before I spotted this. and with its better level of compatibility its still worth it.

[@dbzfanatic278]

I just bought a Sega Saturn so this video is perfect timing for me. Thank you so much. Games for the system are super hard to find

[@dingusbingus7463]

Either hard to find or way too expensive.

[@JamalTheTitan]

I will probably stick with the Saturn all in one cart for now. But that Saroo looks quite promising!

[@SomniaCE]

Definitely more appealing than an ODE, though the lack of a centralized place to purchase the item from always makes me super nervous.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

Yeah, if there was authorized stores it would help. or even a link from the github to the creators own store it would help.

[@wingman-1977]

The Fenrir, Saroo, Satiator and Kai that’s keeping the Saturn alive. I have a white Japanese Saturn with the Fenrir in it and it’s awesome (I also purchased the Action reply plus) and it rocks. I’m planning on getting a Dreamcast with the Fenrir in it down the road.

[@budgiecat9039]

This is good if it works well because the Saturn has been getting various English fan translations which would make them easier to play on Saturn hardware via this method rather than burning discs that don't always run smooth. Sone of these translations that have come out are: Bulk Slash (which also got an English fan dub translation which is helpful because the face gives you navigation commands normally in Japanese audio) Drift King Shutokou Battle '97: Tsuchiya Keiichi & Bandou Masaaki Sakura Wars Tactics Ogre Grandia Shining Force III (all three scenario discs) Stellar Assault SS Gungriffon 2 Baroque Fire Pro Gaiden Blazing Tornado Mobile Suit Gundam (they even added subtitles to the anime cutscenes). Dungeon Master Nexus Shippuu Mahou Daisakusen: Kingdom-Grandprix Silhouette Magic Asuka 120% Limit Over (actual original developers made this hack patch) Zanma Chou Ougi: Valhollian Shoujo Kakumei Utena: Itsuka Kakumei Sareru Monogatari Policenauts DragonForce II Linkle Liver Story Vampire Saviour the Lord of Vampire Cotton 2 Yumimi Mix Remix Ninpen Manmaru Vandal Hearts Falcon Classics Fire Pro Wrestling S: 6 Men Scramble Akumajou Dracula X: Gekka no Yasoukyoku (PS1 Script) (Castlevania Symphony of the Night) and PSP script hack Version (Dracula X: Nocturne in the Moonlight Ultimate)

Glad seeing what you tested it with first! Looking forward to that CK2 review!

[@JoseRojasA]

Bought a Saroo and a japanese Saturn for $200.00 total for both. One from ali express the other from ebay. This is an amazing combination! I completely recommend it now. Don't wait.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

Yeah, this was more or less what I ended up doing during the video. As I started with my UK Saturn and ended up buying the Japanese unit because I wanted a nice NTSC machine. They are a great combo.

[@jonnyharket]

Great video. Ive been interested in this project as s cheaper option to the Satiator. May be worth taking the plunge soon.

[@dreamcast2k1]

This is way past cool I should buy one hopefully it’s not too expensive here in the us gotta check it out after work!

[@ibapreppie]

Sweet. My Saturn CD drive finally went out and don't feel like messing with it. This seems like a good option.

[@dingusbingus7463]

Personally mines about dead. I have one of those pseudo Saturn 4-1 carts, I wonder if they're the same thing with minor additions, I'd like to see if I could mod mine instead of buying a new cart

[@BobbyHo2022]

This video answered my questions. Ive been using real discs, burned discs w psudo saturn, and mister to play.

[@retromuel]

Very interesting. I've got a Fenrir Duo currently but I would quite like to put my optical drive back in if possible. Swapping games between my PAL and Japanese Saturns easily would be really handy. I might invest. Compatibility is a bit of a worry though.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

If you already have a Fenir I could see this being a side step at best as you gain some extra features. but you loose the higher compatibility. it might come in the future, but its behind right now.

[@Demokirby]

This definitely has me interested, wish wills console mods were still making the switcher devices for saturn for fenrir and cd to both be used, but alas

[@BuzzsawGaming]

Very cool. The Saturn is so great just expensive. This looks like a solution 🎉 🦎🦎🦎🦎

[@ShinzouKatsune]

Thank you so much for posting about this. Been on the fence about upgrading my early Gen Saturn using a Fenrir. This is a way easier and straightforward option. Wouldn't call it an emulation option though, since it's running real hardware. Roms or not.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

It is much easier then trying to fit a Fenrir, but compatibility does suffer. but that is improving with each release. any reference to emulation in this instance is to the drive, typically these are called "ODE". Optical drive emulators. This is more relevant to the Saroo as it actually uses its own drive software, which is why its faster then the other options.

[@ShinzouKatsune]

@@GouldFishOnGames but that's only emulating the drive itself, not the entire console. It does this to trick the console into the thinking it's reading off a legitament laser.

Note: The "Pal Machine" is just normally restricted to 50hz. It is fully capable of running games at 60hz and can even be modified to run Pal or NTSC games at 60hz with it's stock hardware. Consider the machine to be a 21 pin NTSC Saturn with an odd region restriction that can be worked around.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

I was looking at modding the Saturn, (I've modded my MegaDrive 1 to be multi region). But I really liked the look of the grey Japanese machine so decided to go down that route. I'm using the same RGB scart cable with both and it works great.

[@byronlaw6491]

@@GouldFishOnGames it’s better to use the Japanese machine. The PAL Saturn can be modded for 60hz but the timings can be off for some games.

[@WhatHoSnorkers]

That's quality that is... what an improvement in loading time!

[@GouldFishOnGames]

yeah it really does make a difference, but its also why some games have issues. so a bit of a double edged sword at the moment.

[@Ish0tJR]

9:43 The sound is a well known issue when running MSH vs SF on a PAL Saturn at 50hz, nothing to do with the Saroo. Burn a copy to CD and boot it with pseudo Saturn Kai, the same thing will happen. 99% of NTSC Saturn games will just run slower and letterboxed when you force them to run in PAL 50z, but there are a handful that have issues.

[@rzh3369]

Ish how do you overcome this problem, MSHvSF ain't working properly with with scudo saturn kai on black UK saturn.

[@parappatherapper4141]

​@@rzh3369 60hz mod is the only solution. The mod is worth it just for this game tho, but there's a lot of fun to be had with a modded system, the japanese library's got some of the best games ever released on any 32bit machine. I'd mod it just for OutRun's awesome Saturn port.

[@stephenshelottiii3272]

I just got a Sega Saturn. I think this will ultimately be added to my setup. I think with the original Saroo creator making updates again this could potentially be the best solution for the Saturn. The satiator looks nice but I have kids so $250 for an accessory for a 30 year old console is not in my budget. I have an all in one cart on the way so, burning games will be it for now.

[@patataboy]

Even if not 100% compatible, it is a very good bargain for less than 70£. I have a European saturn with fenrir and the same memory expansion card as you and it works like a charm, but if I can get my hands on a japanese one, I'll take a Saroo without question

[@Larry]

Do you know if there's a maximum size of SD card it can take? The 1tb cards are falling in price now and with one of those, you could stick the entire Saturn's library on it!

I have a rhea, satiator and now the saroo. Saroo is the best solution for many reasons but there is 2 major flaws: compatibility ( I have some obscure Japanese games which doesn’t even boot) and last but not least: how can I play online now ? 😂 Looks like a joke but I really play sometimes online and you need the modem connected.

[@StrokedGT]

I just bought one a couple of days ago, also the kkdiy version

[@ConfusionDistortion]

I have a couple Fenrir odes. Its been near perfect for me, and its widely supported with a dedicated Discord channel. Only games I ran into that had issues with it so far are games that have issues with other ODE setups also, like the Time Gal/Road Avenger release. Also, just to mention, Fenrir can back up and restore a systems internal game saves. Due to that, you do have some limited memory card type of function, similar to the PAR.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

The Fenrir is a very good system, I was looking at it for a while. and cool that it supports backing up and restoring the system saves, hadn't heard about that before.

@@GouldFishOnGamesMSH Vs SF will not run in 50hz well at all. Back in the 90s I imported the game and I thought the disc was broken. I sent it back and the replacement was the same. Years later I found out that certain games will not work at 50. Strangely tho Xmen Vs SF is fine.

[@WebstersYouTube]

I bought a Satiator in mid-2021 and I'm still lacking a good solution for saves and RAM expansions. Sounds like the SAROO takes care of that while also acting as an ODE at a fraction of the price. I feel a tad silly now.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

Don't feel silly, in 2021 the Saroo wasn't anywhere near as polished as it is now. and the Satiator still has better compatibility with games.

This is great. I run a pseudo kai now but it does still run cd's. So that laser will only last so long.

Yeah, the price of the Satiator held it back for me, and I was interesting in a solution that didn't remove the drive. so this has been a great option.

@@GouldFishOnGames I’ll eventually get a saroo due to my fascination with the Saturn as a whole . I just feel if a disc drive is operating and running for something as old as it can be , might as well utilize it as much as you can . That’s usually the first thing that goes if it’s not the power supply within a console and we have innovations for most consoles now to address either one of those instances. The ram slot too on Saturns are finicky and as shockingly amazing as it is to use a bus through there , it can be hindered by many potential issues too . I have a feeling the Saroo overtime will be perfected and make a lot of consoles / console owners keep their Saturns alive without the knowledge or will power to swap out a disc drive or cough up the money for a video card back door. I enjoyed this video particularly on the Saroo a lot btw

[@coffee84]

Great video. But there is one mistake. With Fenrir you can back up your internal saves on the SD card. Sadly Ali Express doesn't deliver the saroo to Germany. I'm happy with my Fenrir but for curiosity I would like to try the saroo.

Thanks in advance

[@GouldFishOnGames]

Thank, for watching and enjoying the video. I didn't get a chance to fully experiment with multi disc games, but from what I've read most seem to save before you need to switch the disc. and then loads that when you use the next one. But I can't fully confirm this.

[@GouldFishOnGames]

turns out there is a new firmware that came out yesterday and this was in the release notes: Supports the function of changing disks in the game. The directory names of multiple games are required to differ by only one number. Assume that the game xxxxx has two disks and the directory name is [xxxxxxxDisc 1xx] [xxxxxxxDisc 2xx] Make sure that the two directories differ by only one number. Write the following content in saroocfg.txt: [Game-ID] 　　multi_disc = "Disc" In this way, Firm can know the name of the next disk based on the current Disc. When the game displays the prompt to change the disk, press the SD card to let it pop out, and then press the SD card again to complete the disk replacement.
