I ordered a mod chip and iso dvd from racketboy and the post office lost it so he sent me another one. The second chip that came was one of the 1/100 that are defective so he sent me another one and added free delivery confirmation and another iso dvd for free. This guy is legit and very nice to deal with.
cheapest prices,super fast shipping,rare quality stuff for your old skool lifestyles.
what more can ya ask for?
racketboy’s is a very reliable source for modchips.
highly recommended!
RacketBOY’s Saturn modchips are top notch, easy to install, and very quickly delivered. I would highly reccomend these chips to anyone interested. On top of that, they are hard to find anywhere else. I couldn’t reccomend a better source. Thanks!
I got it in yesterday, (superfast shipping by the way!) and quickly modded modded my 32 pin saturn! Thanks Racketboy!
awesome! bought a modchip and ram cart from racketboy on a thursday, had it on monday! i’m a complete novice with electronics, but i managed (with shakey hands, no less) to solder the modchip into my model 2 japanese saturn with only minimal problems (i didn’t push the chip into the slot all the way, the troubleshooting page helped me on that one though) and now it plays my backups no problem! heck, it even loads without mentioning “checking disc” when playing imports (it goes to the cd screen and skips the disc check, usually imports must be “checked” first)
nothing but good stuff from racketboy! thanks!

I ordered on Monday and received on Thursday!
only 3 days for delivery cross the ocean!!!
Very easy installation, runs perfectly!!
THX! 😉
Arrived extremly quickly, I was so surprised when a package arrived for me just two days after I ordered it.
Slight problems installing it though, seening as the insides of my saturn are well, backwards. I seem to have a model 1 inside a model 2 case! Oh well, im sure i’ll be able to get it working soon.
Thanks for the great service!
Ordered a RAM cart and mod chip. order was shipped next day though USPS was kind of slow (not racketboy’s fault of course). anyways, RAM cart works perfectly. Mod chip was a little bit trickier since I have a 64 pin Model 2 saturn (21 pin cd ribbon). But I used the A+B method, put the chip in with the components facing out and put the ribbon in upside down and it works like a charm…almost. I can play both burned games and retail games but both require me to boot to the CD player screen and then open and close the lid. but it’s a small inconvenience for an awesome mod. Thanks racketboy!
Nice, corrosion-free modchip, delivered in style. Looks brand new and works fine.
Just wanted to add an install note that I hadn’t seen mentioned before: the A+B (“solderless”) trick worked fine with this chip on my Japanese model 2 Saturn!
I’ve seen instructions elsewhere on the web claiming that ALL Japanese Saturns require soldering a connection to the 32-pin IC. But that wasn’t true in my case. The install using the A+B trick was exactly the same as on my 32-pin model 2 US Saturn.
The only catch was that the +5V point on the Japanese console is slightly farther away than on a US Saturn, so you have to stretch the power wire a bit further. 🙂
Well, I ordered my modchip on Friday night and it came here on Tuesday. So considering that the order couldn’t even be sent until Monday, it was very speedy. I’ve also talked to the owner via e-mail in the past, and he is very trusting and loves to talk to his customers. I got my modchip in GREAT condition, and it works just fine. I did the A+B trick on my 32-pin Model 2 Saturn, and I couldn’t be happier.
Anyone looking to buy a modchip should go through this guy. He’s very speedy with the shipping, and is extremely helpful and reliable.
speedy, easy to installation and now im playing all the games ive always wanted to play on my saturn.This a must for everyone who is serious about retro games
Thanks Racketboy for the prompt shipping. Installation was a breeze (altough I most admit I had previous soldering skills) Got it up and running in just one try. Now if you excuseme, I gotta go play some Radiant Slilvergun!
i had fun installing this in my 64-pin model 2 US saturn. don’t worry if the circuitboard pics on racketboy’s site don’t match, you can find pictorial installation guides for this type elsewhere. seems like the A-B method is working out for me, so no soldering fiddly pins! oh, and most importantly, it was delivered swiftly, and works!
I recieved the chip and battery today and installed it right when I got home. At first, I thought it didn’t work because so many of my burns wouldn’t read but when I tossed my Panzer Dragoon Saga disc in there, it ran perfectly. I guess I grabbed a bad image of Nights. That and Nero doesn’t like to burn backups very well. I’m using clone cd now. Anyways, it was well worth the money and I’ll be sure buy again sometime and send along the message to anyone who has some retro gaming hardware needs.
Perfect, I have never spent my money better. It didnt work on my Sanyo (wouldnt recommend getting a mod chip for a sanyo board! they never work!) but on my model 2, 32 pin, it works PERFECT. I am already playing tons of backups! no complaints at all. THANK YOU! the instructions are great too, i had never sodored before, but i got it working my first try on the 32 pin saturn.
What you should do,
Make sure you have the 32 pin saturn (they work the best)
Follow instructions from racketboy
Burn image using nero
DONE!
Any problems? DONT THINK SO

I bought a racketboy modchip, and I couldn’t be happier. It installed EASY with just a couple of PIECE OF CAKE soldering spots. I’m a novice at soldering, and this was SO EASY. Plays every backup I own flawlessly.
Hey great site lots of great info, the “Burning SegaSaturn Backups for the Mac” link seems to be down, I’m a mac user so i kinda need that
Loved the first one that I bought! I’m buying another.
Procuro chip sega saturn destavamento.
Procuro chip sega saturno para desbloqueio.
Well i was going to buy one but they are OUT OF STOCK so i cant get one….
Ordered the mod chip for my apparently hard to mod model 2 64 pin saturn. Worked flawlessly first time, i was freakin’ zonal!!!
A pleasure to do business with Racketboy, recommend to anyone!!
curse me has not arrived my chip for saturn surely is the local mail of here (Colombia)
I have many desire to play already
The chip works great. I had a problem at first where the drive wouldn’t spin and it would constantly check the disc’s format/content (even if there was no disc in the drive). This was solved by filing down a small part of the chip to ensure a snug fit. Works great now, so far. Thanks.
