==Trivia== *This console has the least amount of ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog series|Sonic]]'' titles on it. *The Saturn was going to have an attachment/sequel console called the "Sega Pluto," but only three prototypes were made. *From 18 November to 31 December 1996 in the United States, every Sega Saturn console came with three free games included: ''Virtua Fighter 2'', ''Daytona USA'', and ''Virtua Cop''.<ref>{{Cite web|title=3 FREE SEGA SATURN GAMES|url=http://www.sega.com/news/promos/3free.html|publisher=[[Sega]]|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/19961219232841/http://www.sega.com/news/promos/3free.html|archivedate=19 December 1996|accessdate=17 March 2022}}</ref> *''Virtua Fighter 2'' is the best selling Sega Saturn game. This is unusual because most of Sega's other consoles had a ''Sonic'' game as the best seller. *The Sega Saturn features a library of over five hundred games. *The Sega Saturn is featured on the cover of [[Archie Sonic the Hedgehog Issue 59|Sonic the Hedgehog #59]]. [[File:SEGAGAM1.png|right|thumb|The artwork found on a CD.]] *A CD-based testing program contains an artwork of [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]] and [[Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails]] never seen anywhere else. *Most American Sega Saturn discs can be played in Japanese consoles, but most Japanese games are locked for American and European consoles. Like in the [[Sega Mega Drive]], the use of a switch to replace some jumpers will circumvent the region-lock without changing the language. In addition, the use of certain unlicensed backup/RAM cartridges will also allow a console to play games from different regions, except for games that use proprietary ROM-RAM carts. Games from different television systems may have graphical problems. *A [[Sonic the Hedgehog (1995 film)|movie]] was going to come with the Sega Saturn, but was cancelled. *This was the first Sega console to not compete with a Nintendo console, but instead with the [[Sony Interactive Entertainment|Sony]] [[wikipedia:PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]]. *The [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]] model used in all [[Sonic 3D Blast|three]] [[Sonic R|Saturn]] [[Sonic Jam|games]] is the lowest polygon count for a model of the titular character in the entire series, with the said-model reaching 286 tris and faces, as well as 189 verts.<ref name="Low Poly">{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_Pvr7Cc2Ds|title=Sonic The Hedgehog - Low Poly (Evolution of Characters in Games) - Episode 2|last=Collins|first=Andy|date=22 April 2017|accessdate=2 January 2023|work=YouTube|publisher=A+Start}}</ref> [[File: Sega Saturn in Neon Genesis Evangelion.jpeg|150px|thumb]] *The Sega Saturn cameos in the Anime ''Neon Genesis Evangelion'' as the Anime was co-produced with Sega.
