Wow! that thing is pretty sexy!

Can you use it to play games as well? and how do you code for it? Is it like the Yaroze PSX dev kit?

Nah it doesnt burn games, but I believe you can hook it up to your computer and burn it, either that or (i heard this from someone) sega is the only one who could do it.

I love it when crazy sega saturns pop up on ebay. Thats the third different dev saturn i have seen. I swear i saw one that must have had a ribbon cable with at least 300 wires, it was insane.

Yeah i believe it was. It was still pretty cool though.

I saw another saturn on ebay that i believe had something to do with a japanese car company promotion as it had a GPS and a bunch of other stuff, i think it was meant to be a portable system in a car. I'm not totally sure though. I should have saved the pictures and item description.

I've seen a handful of those (and other types) of saturn dev machines on ebay... Problem is, without the linkers and libraries... plus any idea what you are doing it will just be a nice collectors piece... Still, if you are a video game collector, it is worth having, I just don't think I would spend for that. Of course I do have most of the original Saturn Dev software here...
