Some other regions may also have PAL or 50Hz releases, but this list covers the Saturn versions released in PAL Europe. PAL as a gaming territory covers Europe and parts of Oceania. The reverse is true if you add a 50Hz switch to a NTSC console. Some NTSC games that have this issue on a PAL console at 60Hz include Dragon Force II, Far East of Eden: The Apocalypse IV and Quarterback Attack with Mike Ditka.
Examples of this in PAL games include Burning Rangers and Exhumed/Powerslave at 60Hz. As a result some games on PAL consoles will have stuttering and sound break up introduced into video and audio files, when this occurs. As internally the PAL and NTSC Sega Saturn models are the same hardware, bar some minor changes most noticeable the crystal oscillator MHz speed, all units can be modified to output 60/50Hz as needed.ĭo note that PAL modified consoles, may not correctly match the same Hz speed as a original NTSC console in some cases, due to the crystal oscillator MHz speed being different. Unlike the Sega Mega Drive the Saturn can have the screen aspect ratio corrected at 50Hz, also no games feature graphical issues such as screen roll seen on some PAL Mega Drive games.
Until such time we are happy with all tests and have compared all games with an NTSC counterpart if available and on a NTSC Saturn unit, this list will not be finalised.Īs with the Sega Mega Drive a number of PAL games are optimised in some form or another to support 50Hz properly. We have begun a second test pass on all games and test results may change in the future. Randomised Gaming presents a now complete list (first pass) of the 60Hz support for all PAL Sega Saturn games.
