    It is his fault. He knows, you know and we know. Stop being a denial enabler Ed.

    Now if he said that you could play laserdisks on a broken 8-track player with a chewing gum wrapper modification - that would make perfect sense! That I could totally understand. It's so obvious! It amazes me that still to this day it's never been attempted. *sigh*

    That's ridiculous.

    To do that you need to scalp the guts out of a CED player and wire them into an LP table, then mod the needle with a red laser.

    I don't know why you're all so thrilled about this. After all, I've been playing Saturn discs on my Genesis for quite a while now...

    That's cool and all, but I play my Dreamcast games on a modded NES toploader.

    THATS RIGHT, I JUMPED COMPANIES!!!

    Stay tuned guys, I'm about to post my schematic to convert a ColecoVision for Edison Cylinder playback... It will blow your bits right outta the stylus groove! Unfortunately, the GameBoy/Waffle iron project is on indefinite hold...

    on a semi related note, was there a reason for the cart slot other than for the memory cart? did they plan on making saturn carts? if not, why no backwards compatibility?

    I'm pretty sure that can actually be done, somehow.

    It's obviously there to instigate consumers to mod their Saturns into Genesis-compatible consoles. What else would it be for?!?

    The idea was that you could play 32X games. It was supposed to fit in with the whole genesis/32X/neptune paradigm. Sega realized how stupid of an idea that was and killed it. IIRC there were a few carts released in Japan, although it may have been cart+CD.

    Switch that to a blue laser, and you could play Blu-Ray discs! Cheaper than a PS3 :P
