Ever tried playing Shining Force III on your Sega Saturn⌠only to have it stubbornly refuse because the B button doesnât work? Yeah, welcome to the wild world of Saturn ODEs.
This weekend, two beloved Sega Saturn optical drive emulators got long-awaited updates. First up: Fenrir Lite. After months of users hitting a wall with Fenrir Loader Kai failing to load games from SD cards, creator Ced dropped a fixâthen spent 48 hours fine-tuning it with Discord users until it was butter-smooth. Now? B button works. Games load. Peace returns to the Saturn faithful.
Meanwhile, SAROO dropped version 0.8âand itâs a party. CD+G audio CDs? Check. Two-player controller support? Double check. Plus, it now reads .cdg/.sub files (just name them like your .cue file and youâre golden). TPUnix also warned: donât mix this firmware with YZBâsâtheyâre like iOS and Android. Same phone, different OS.
Itâs 2025, and weâre still geeking out over Saturn emulators with more passion than most modern consoles get. And honestly? We wouldnât have it any other way. đŽâ¨
