Stellar Assault SS [Saturn] by SIMS [HD] [1080p]

[@curly_fries]

This game is one of the greatest examples of what the saturn was capable of in the right hands and if anyone still hasn't played it yet a fan localization was released which gives the game full english voice acting!

[@Nordlicht05]

I stumbled over it 5 minutes ago.... I will get it

[@stilldreaming56]

The sega saturn had so much unexplored potential. Seeing games like this and Virtua Fighter 2 shows that the Sega Saturn's hardware was powerful but complicated. Thanks for the upload!

[@marcbasil]

Lol no. Saturn is the most developed-for Sega console. Over 1,200 titles. It’s potential was enormously explored

[@opaljk4835]

@@marcbasil I don’t think so. If it had a few more years on the market with releases in similar numbers to 96-97 we would’ve seen some incredible advancements, especially given how Shenmu was coming along and how cool the 1998 small but fierce line up was. I don’t think we saw it’s full potential realizes.

This game looks amazing for Saturn.

[@tHeWasTeDYouTh]

this looks awesome!!!! I cannot believe we never got this game in America. i loved the first game on the 32X!!!!!

[@ciprianmogosanu7169]

This game sums up the saturn vs 32x debate(if there ever was one)what if the sarurn had at launch the 4 good games on 32 x(knuckle,star wars,tempo,and kolibri).they should have just never release the 32x and rework some of the games for saturn.i would have loved to play knuckle chaotix on my saturn.

[@SaturnMemories]

Ciprian Mogosanu I really like the first game too, but as far as graphics and framerate go, the sequel here blows the 32X game out of the water.

[@jordonvazquez7620]

this game has an amazing voice cast.

[@上氷]

「ゲーム批評」という雑誌で 「面白いのに売れないゲーム」という記事でこのゲームが紹介されていた。

[@bonelessskeleton8818]

Has that same space opera feel as Colony Wars for PS1. However there's a little bit too much cutscene.

[@minamur]

never heard of this game. and i just bought a saturn this weekend

[@JoseMartinez-jm1bu]

Wow! I am ordering this right now from Japan!

[@elsenorax7371]

40:15 that voice...jiraiya is that you?

[@ohnethunfisch]

One of those few fully polygonal Saturn Titles, where the visuals aged pretty well imo. Maybe because they went for a very clean look instead of trying too much (while ruining the framerate in the Process as with Burning Rangers for example). Too bad, that they didn't release it in the West. Probably thought it wouldn't be able to compete with Colony Wars, or it being too costly to localize all the voice work. Anyway, looks like a lot of fun. A shame though, that prices for this have skyrocketed as well already.

[@MasterCastTV]

So want this game. Watching this video makes me weep inside.

[@SaturnMemories]

It improves on the original in nearly every way. Would definitely recommend getting it before it turns into a $200 game.

[@MasterCastTV]

I can't even afford it as is. Too many responsibilities right now. Though it will be mine someday. Oh yes, it will be mine.

[@SaturnMemories]

Master-Cast TV I know how that feels. Money has been super tight for a while. I haven't been able to buy anything for my collection in nearly a year, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

[@MasterCastTV]

A year? Damn, bro! You okay?

[@SaturnMemories]

Master-Cast TV I'll be alright. I'm just not making the money I used to make, and collecting keeps getting more and more expensive. Paying bills and buying necessities is more important, heh.

[@UltraHealthyVideoGameNerd]

I'm in disbelief at the quality of this music.

[@SaturnMemories]

Techno Breakers Inc It's good stuff. My personal favorite is at 23:10.

[@archived527]

+Techno Breakers Inc Nah, I think the music sounds good. Not the best, but still good.

これメチャクチャ出来が良くて面白かったのに当時、売れなかった悲劇のゲーム 3DSHTってジャンルとパッと見の印象が地味なのが原因かな

[@Supreme-Emperor-Mittens]

Someone should really remake this game ... updated graphics, and most importantly ... SUBTITLES !!!

[@SaturnMemories]

VL VIDEOS A group of fans attempted to create a hybrid of the 32X and Saturn versions using the FreeSpace 2 engine a couple years ago, but the project has since stalled. Google "Stellar Assault FSO" for their website. They also have a few videos on KZbin.

[@Zeether77]

Good news, the guys who did the Bulk Slash translation are working on this next

[@Supreme-Emperor-Mittens]

[@marineblu9584]

PSより大幅に劣るとされていたサターンのVDPでこれほどの3D表現をやってのけたのは特筆にあたいします。ポリゴン欠け、処理落ちもまったくといっていほどありませんね。リリースがサターン末期の98年だったからか、まったく売れなかったのがくやまれます。

[@kapparomeo]

Is this game any relation to Stellar Assault on the 32X?

[@SaturnMemories]

Yes, SIMS made both games. Some of the earlier missions even mirror ones from the 32X game.

[@RC-go2kl]

Wait! Sega Saturn had Shadow Squadron too? Holy crap the game is 100 times better! Is this only playable on Japanese SS?

[@kei_nishimaru]

Unfortunately, yes, this game was only released in Japan for the Saturn.

[@Carsonj13]

This game has ACTUAL TRANSPARENCY!? How'd they pull that off? Does anyone know?

[@SaturnMemories]

There are a lot of Saturn games with transparencies. This one isn't unique, lol.

[@Carsonj13]

Saturn Memories I know but most of those use the VDP2 for things like water and clouds and color averaging which mad transparent objects look solid depending on what they overlapped. This game's explosions and jet-fuel effects overlap other objects as WELL as the backgrounds!

[@costumeninja1914]

Does anyone know any cheat codes for this game?

[@ビーマニ1]

たしかサタマガの読者レースでも高得点だったような。今見ても面白そうだし、当時知っていれば買ったかも。しかし1998年だとかなりの末期だな。一年早ければもっと違っていたかも。

[@bluewolf8873]

can you change camera views?

[@costumeninja1914]

Yes

[@drakonolus7922]

This game is more drama and a lot of Blah Blah Blah instead of gameplay. The 32x version still better. However this Saturn version it's not that bad at how i say. It seems fun and maybe changeling.

[@costumeninja1914]

Saturn version blows it away

[@Odolwa2]

there was a homebrew some time back. the 32x was more than capable of a direct clone port of this version. no one really knew just how capable each of these systems was. so sad.. the version on the 32x was needlessly primitive, it could do exactly what you see here.

[@gurriato]

Nice headcanon. The 32x was trash.

[@burntyper]

LOL

[@matilija]

No, the 32x had about half the processing muscle and nowhere close to the rendering capabilities of the Saturn, yes, it used the same model SH2 CPU's but clocked at 16 mhz compared to 28 mhz on the saturn, but it lacked the dedicated vdp's. This level of detail was not possible on the 32x.

[@Dmar-ih7kr]

You might be on to something because I just saw the tomb Raider demo on the 32X that the guy behind openlara is creating and it’s running at 15-20fps on just ONE SH-2 chip thus far. He said that his goal is to release the game finished by the end of 2025. Overall, sega should have at ported as many of their arcade games as possible on the 32X instead of shooting themselves in the foot over business differences between SOA and SOJ.
