    sat To Play Sega Saturn Homebrew you Need a Chipped Console

    On the Sega Saturn the best way to play homebrew is to have your console chipped. Rockin-B found these sites that are of help:

    Just a few found with google, list not complete:

    No for that you will need a seperate VCD card.

    I bought my Saturn modchip from racketboy and have been very happy with it.

    If you got the VCD card, you can not only play original video CDs, but also self burned video CD's on CD-R, without the need of a modchip.

    The only VCD Cards I can find are for a lot of money on ebay which is a bit much for me to pay for at the moment
