How to make a Saturn Game Self Boot?

Post by ReddMcKnight »

OK, this may sound odd, but I found a Saturn Game that doesn't self boot, and as such, I can't play it. So the question is, is there any way I can make it Self Boot?

What do you mean by Self Boot? Your not thinking of the Dreamcast are you?

EDIT: I would imagine as the site you got it from is a DC site, they have if it is Selfboot next to all images.

EDIT EDIT: Glad you got it work, he just had to use another original game for the swap trick.

How do you know all of this? Was it from a conversation on IM or IRC? I don't see any mention of this in the thread.

I jumped on IRC after seeing the thread, thinking Redd is most likely on, and he was.
