It uses a CD drive for games, two controller ports on the front and a cartridge slot on top for add-ons like a backup memory cartridge. Two US models exist. The first has oval buttons on top, and the second has round ones. Both play the same North American games and audio CDs, and both connect to a TV through Sega's AV connector on the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Saturn library at a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system is strongest with arcade and 2D games. Virtua Fighter 2 and Sega Rally Championship came straight from Sega's arcade side. Nights into Dreams has you flying through the dream world of Nightopia, while Panzer Dragoon Saga pairs a dragon rider with a role-playing story across four discs. Guardian Heroes lets you brawl across three lanes, and Saturn Bomberman supports large multiplayer matches with a multitap. Burning Rangers and Dragon Force add more variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat to check on a used Saturn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaturn units vary in wear, and the photo is representative. When it arrives, listen for the disc drive spinning up and check that the disc lid closes firmly. The Saturn keeps saves and the clock in internal memory that relies on a small backup battery, and its state is not something a pre-owned listing can promise. Accessories vary by unit. Controllers, the AV cable, the power cord and games are included only if the title lists them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:details --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-facts\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHardware\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSega Saturn (US model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSega Saturn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHome console\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlays\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNorth American Sega Saturn discs and audio CDs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNeeds a Saturn AV cable, a power cord and a Saturn controller\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eController ports\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTwo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eRelease\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1995\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-faq\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this item\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWill Japanese Saturn games play on this console?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eA US Saturn is built for North American discs.
