Sega Saturn Tribute Compatibility Spreadsheet (WIP)
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X4iLL8J5sPMlxr_XbfZ-3f21IF9ni-otn2wwl-4hzsk/edit?usp=sharing


- Includes links to required/recommended configs. If nothing is listed, use Guardian Force's default config.
- "CPU MHz" column is the overclock you will need in handheld mode. If nothing is listed, then no overclocking is required.
- If you would like to contribute, click the "Public Sheet" tab at the bottom and add your finds there.
- If any games are flat out missing from the compatibility sheet, please make note of it within the "Public Sheet"
- The sheet is still a work-in-progress, so keep an eye out for changes on already tested games (Better config, less overclock, etc)

If there are any questions, recommendations, etc regarding the spreadsheet, feel free to reach out.

I tried adding to the public folder but it didn't seem to save. The following work well with the std config:

Shining Force 3 S2 (eng patched)
Shining Force 3 S3 (eng patched)
Command & Conquer (EU)

Ahhh...I see. You delete from the public tab and add to the main list. Gotcha. Will continue adding to the public list in that case.

Amazing work by the way !

Thanks but I should add that a great deal of works was also done by @xYuunax who initially created the spreadsheet and some games listed were based off @stranno 's showcase videos on YouTube. Might be forgetting someone else. But of course many thanks to you and anyone else with public contributions to testing as well.

Need some help getting final fight revenge to work. I didn’t realize the config I got from here was set at 1mb. When I noticed that I changed it to 5c and saved it. Am I missing something. This is the config I’m supposed to change if I’m correct.
Edit
Page 5 had the answer delete save. It didn’t work for me though, so maybe somehow the game got created wrong. I guess later I’ll try again.

The thing with Nights Into Dreams is there's more than one US version iso you can find online, the only one that worked for me is the one called "NiGHTS into Dreams... (USA) (RE)", while this one did not boot "Nights Into Dreams... (USA) (DW0453)".

You mean this one working :

-NiGHTS into Dreams... (USA) (with 3D Control Pad) (RE) [English, NTSC, Full ISO]
No, I never tried that one, maybe it's the same iso with a slightly different name though, the one I reported as working has literally the name I mentioned "NiGHTS into Dreams... (USA) (RE)".

Anyone figure out how multi disc games work like panzer dragoon saga?

Save the game at the end of disk 1. Create the NSP for disk 2 so it has the SAME title ID as disk 1 (so disk 1 will need to be deleted). Then load disk 2. You should be good to go. This method doesn't work for all multi-disk games but most. There is a list somewhere in the thread. Probably around pages 20-30
