hi scene , so im thinking of getting a Sega Saturn if i do more than one.........i saw on Racketboys Sale page a Modchip to mod them with , problem im coming across atm is i want to get Model 2 32pin Versions.

i want to avoid getting these.........

Model 1 Saturn
Sanyo Saturn


Model 1 is easy from what ive seen they are the Saturns with oval buttons , but how can i avoid a Sanyo and get Model 2 32pin Versions ?

Is there some markings to look for ? or something on the sticker on the back of the Saturn ?



any info helps

Yes you're correct the model 1 has the oval buttons, easy to spot and stay away from those.

As for the model 2s there is no reliable way to tell what CD board it has without opening it. Just make sure it has the round buttons and hope for the best.
