There is some HUGE breakthroughs with Sega Saturn Emulation. Especially on low end systems and single board computers. The Odroid XU4 is now able to play Sega Saturn games to a great standard and many of the classics are now fully playable on there.
All footage used in this video has been taken from the ODROID XU4 running this emulator. Some games can be made to run even smoother by lowering the Resolution (480p @steady 60fps), some game can be made to look better by increasing it (1080p @ 30FPS full speed in most cases). For the purpose of this video, I used the same res throughout (x2 @ mostly steady 60FPS, sometimes 30FPS all full speed) to show what its like at a medium setting!
It is a WIP and the build that has the Saturn compatibility is still in BETA stages for the ORA team. But it will soon be made public so you guys get to share all this too!
I also mentioned my ODRIOD theme too. The link to this is in the links below. It is still WIP, but very much useable. Just make sure you read the README text on the github site. It shows you what settings you need to put in to make it work as intended. I know some of you dont know how to work Github yet, so I will make a dedicated video in the next day or so showing you how to do this in detail… aslo updating it ready for the official launch!

WARNING!:
This video in regards to Emulation is made to encourage you to play your BACKUPS. In other words, THE GAMES WHICH YOU ALREADY OWN!. Please do not emulate any games which you do not already have on any systems which you do not own. Unless of course they are abandon/free-ware due to license or age.
Emulation for me is not about playing games I do not own. It is about playing games on another platform. In fact on my PC at 4k internal resolution 60fps with one controller… not having 200+ consoles set up with 600+ controllers tangled up!
ESPECIALLY, do not sell anything to do with this scene or be stupid enough to buy anything from this scene. Support Developers (especially SEGA) and pay for what you play!
