Question

Can you play Saturn games on your Dreamcast?

Answer 1

unfortunately the answer is no the saturn and dreamcast are actually very different machines in terms of their processes this makes backward compatibility quite a challenge the saturn had a very complex architecture which includes to main processes this is the main reason why the rent any Saturn and emulator that have high compatibility and run smoothly on order PC's for the same reason it would have been a very expensive and difficult for Sega to implement backwards compatibility into the dreamcast it's quite and same as it would have given games that invested in the starting a newer machine to play the favorites and it would have given the dreamcast and much better chance of surviving against the PS2(which does play POne games). if dreamcast did play Saturn games there there would be no questions that the ring cast would be ultimate system for retro games as the combined library of the saturn and dreamcast free features almost every major 2D fighter and shooter in addition to hundreds of other old school games and great emulator support
