Getting Saturn Modchip, what should I know?

Post by enigmaxtreme »

As the title says I'm planning on getting a Saturn modchip in the next few weeks.

My Saturn is an Australian MK-80200A-03 with Oval buttons, which model is it and which chip should I get?

I've had some bad experiences with ModChipping my PS2, discs refusing to read and going through at least 4 PS2s in a few months. How reliable are Sega lenses?

Well as far as i know the Saturn is one the most reliable of the CD based system. Ive only did this once and only advice is the mod chip is very fragile one of the leads came off during the installation and i was been gentle.

A Saturn modchip doesn't enable original imports, or the ability to choose 50hz/60hz.
Those take further modding.
Lum fan.
