1. Albert Odyssey: The Legend of Eldean
2. Blazing Heroes/Mystaria
3. Dark Savior
4. Dragon Force
5. The Legend of Oasis
6. Magic Knight Rayearth
7. Panzer Dragoon Saga
8. Shining Force III
9. Shining the Holy Ark
10. Shining Wisdom Too: You Fucks
11. Guardian Heroes
12. Virtual Hydlide

So there's technically a dozen RPGs released in USA for Saturn? What else are we missing?

Action Adventure like Zelda, so not really an RPG.

I would also atruggle to call Guardian Heroes an RPG

Admittedly when the list is that small, you take what you can get.

From what I've been looking up, it seems like this is pretty much it. There were quite a few that were Japan only but have since made it over on other consoles.

Then we could most any modern game with a leveling system an RPG. That is more of a marketing thing. I have seen those descriptors on other games as well that seems like a stretch to label a game as they did.
