Saturn mouse with gun games

Post by alexkidd »

Has anyone tried the Saturn mouse out for use on the light gun games? The light gun won't work on my HDTV, and while my analog pad is better than the standard it's still not fun. I was thinking that the mouse would make those games fun again. Specifically Virtua Cop 1 & 2, House of the Dead and SCUD.

What games of any sort work with the Saturn mouse? I was told there is a text file on the Panzer Dragoon Zwei CD claiming that the mouse was a great way to control the game, but I have not verified this. Obviously games like Theme Park would work great, but does anyone have a definitive list?


Is there any functional difference between the Saturn mouse from Japan and the Netlink mouse? Their both pretty cheap.

I'm sure if it is definitive - but it is a good start. I don't see any of the Panzer Dragoons listed. Most games that support the mouse should also indicate it on their case.

Thanks for the list. I wonder if it includes the latest releases? I see VCop 1 and 2 but not House of the Dead. I wonder if ther is anything inherently different than a game that is compatible with the mission stick or analog pad? The analog pad works well on House of the Dead. I think I'm going to try to get one for the gun games, also it will be nice for dragon force.

Any one have a good solution for a firm mousing serface they can set on their lap on the couch?
