So /vr/ I'm thinking about getting either a Japanese Sega Saturn or a PC-Engine Duo. The question is, which one? I am quite torn because the Saturn is cheaper but the PC-Engine is cool, too.
Pic unrelated.
If the PCE isn't refurbed, it will probably need to be ("soft sound" is an indicator) and cost even more. If budget is really an issue for you obviously the Saturn offers much more fun:price.
Assuming you're just pretending to be middle class, can actually easily afford either and are just trying to ask which is "better" the library for the PCE+CD is way way bigger. PCE spans 3rd and 4th gen, Saturn is only 5th gen and even got that crowded on both ends by 32xCD and Dreamcast. Both PCE and Saturn are extremely weeb-leaning, probably equally so that doesn't really matter...
tl;dr Saturn obviously unless you strongly (~$300) prefer 80s weebery to 90s
As an emufag, I would highly recommend the Saturn. PCE/CD emulation is near-perfect, but Saturn still has some noticeable issues. A real Saturn is the better choice.

Get Duo now, even JP second hand prices for Duo and PCE systems are rising steadily. Unless it is refurbished, you are probably going to do cap replacement and laser adjustment on it.
Saturn is better, but there are more of them made, and they are still cheap and work well.
Haha, in 20 fucking 17?
Neither, you're too late.
V-Saturn all the way.

You should think about spending the money on food if you're so poor.

V-Saturn is the same as generic japanese Saturn, it just says a different logo on startup.
Hi-Saturn is superior to that - the entire ANIMATION is better, and it has a sexy black case that is immune to the yellowing that plagues all japanese saturns and v-saturns.

Get the skeleton Saturn.

The v-saturn passes the boot screen faster than a regular one

This is the reason I just ordered a saturn.
>>3747623
wow
>>3747623
is this one of the golden girls

saturn, never look back.
get a duo-r - they used much better caps than the original, AND the caps they used will make replacement easier.
