Ok last Saturn question I swear! (until the next one...). Are there any good pages for reviews of Japanese Saturn games? Many games have odd titles and I have no idea what kind of game they are when I see them listed for sale. For instance, I never knew Don Pachi was a kick ass shooter because the name means nothing to me.

Surely someone must have put together an import review page that at least has the genre and a screenshot listed. I've found a few, but most of them were very outdated and had numerous broken links.

I don't know of any comprehensive JP Saturn game review site. Gamefaqs.com has some stuff reviewed, as I'm sure you know. For shootemups, I generally go to http://www.classicgaming.com/shmups/ and refer to the "Xenocide files" section, where listings and many reviews links are found. If you know that the game is a shmup (regardless of which system it lives on), you can often also find a review at http://www.starbase299.com/

You'll find about two dozen small reviews here:
