Sorry, I don't believe the Saturn emulator for PSP plays commercial games of any sort whatsoever. It's also very slow.

If you want to play the games on Sonic Jam (excluding Sonic World), get PicoDrive_PSP. It plays all the original Sonic games + Sonic CD.

[Sonicdude1995]

it's possible! sofiycat has released a sega saturn emu 4 psp & i got it. i just dont know how 2 arrange them.

my purpose is not 2 play classic sonic games but 2 play sonic jam's sonic world,sonic r, saturn ver of sonic 3d blast, NiGHTS & many more!

[Eviltaco64]

I already told you.
There is a Saturn emulator for the PSP but it doesnt run any commercial games (which are games released for it that were sold in stores, like NiGHTS, Sonic Jam, Sonic 3D Blast, etc) and it's ridiculously slow (I think the Saturn main menu runs at 5 FPS or something).

It's currently (and probably never going to be) possible to play Sega Saturn games fullspeed on PSP, and it's most certainly not possible with an extremely basic port such as sofiyacat's.

Eviltaco64 is right, there is no playable saturn emu for the PSP and very likely there never will be one. Be careful, there are alot of fake "saturn emus" for the psp (and other consoles) that are just Trojans/malware

[Sonicdude1995]

oh, but when i searched this forum, there is a topic about this emu too. the ppl said that it works.

[TheDSGuy]

Is there really a Sega Saturn Emulator? Wow. Where have I been..? >.<;

[Darksaviour69]

oh, but when i searched this forum, there is a topic about this emu too. the ppl said that it works.

First please post a link to the topic, and 2nd, it might work, but it might not be playable (i.e 5 FPS works, but too slow to play

Sofia's version was a POC release and didn't play any games. I modified it to play games.

To play a game, you have to put the cue file for the cd image in the same drawer as the EBOOT with the name saturn.cue. The cue file will refer to the proper cd image.

I was able to play through the first level of Panzer Dragoon with it, but be advised that it is PAINFULLY slow. I don't think anyone has made any updates to it.

[Darksaviour69]

Thanks JLF65 for clearing that up

[Sonicdude1995]

JLF65, thx!!!

[Sonicdude1995]

oh, & btw where do u get the cue file?

& where do u put the games?
sorry 4 those questions!

[JLF65]

sorry 4 those questions!

"saturn.bin" is the BIOS file. Bin/cue files are the dumps of Saturn CDs. I cannot provide any of those. It all goes in the same directory as the EBOOT.

"saturn.bin" is the BIOS file. Bin/cue files are the dumps of Saturn CDs. I cannot provide any of those. It all goes in the same directory as the EBOOT.

so which bios should i use? a jap,us,euro or the stv bios. i placed everything like this (directory, psp being the root):

psp<-game<-yabause for psp<-yabause0.9.1(src)
yabause for psp<-eboot.pbp
yabause for psp<-saturn.cue(sonic jam)
i excluded the bios since i dont know where 2 place it.
can u help me plz???

& tell me how should i put them clearly.

[JLF65]

Try just a BIOS first. It just goes in the same directory as the EBOOT with the name saturn.bin.

PSP/GAME/yabuse/EBOOT.PBP
PSP/GAME/yabuse/saturn.bin

Remember that it is a 3.xx homebrew, so make sure in the recovery menu that GAME is set for 3.xx, or put the directory in the GAME3/4/5XX directory.

Once you have it running the BIOS, then try a CD. Remember that this emu is SLOOOOOOW.

[Sonicdude1995]

oh, i placed the emu on game!
anyway, thx 4 now!

[Sonicdude1995]

ok, i placed a bios & still got a saturn.bin not found. can any1 send the bios???? plz???

[Sonicdude1995]

ok, so how 2 know that a bios is working????
after, loading, screen goes blank.(no game)

[TheLostKid]
