    Default Sega Saturn Swap Trick - IT WORKS?! Uh huh, video included too

    Well let me start off by saying, I own all the originals of my back-up copies. I do not support, promote, or condone the use or sell of illegal back-up copies. I merely use back-ups to perserve my originals.
    A good example of this would be my copy of SATURN BOMBERMAN. When I bought my copy a long time ago, the game played great and I played it all the time. But over time, I got the CD scratched beyond laser recognition. The game wouldn't play the FMVs properly anymore, so I made a back-up copy of it and that fixed the problem.

    -SATURN BOMBERMAN (BAD FMVs/ORIGINAL)
    -SATURN BOMBERMAN (GOOD FMVs/BACK-UP COPY)


    From that point on, I realized that I needed to back-up all my original games so that they would never get F---ed Up again.
    So now that you know the story behind the use of my Back-Up Copies, Here's the Video that showcases HOW TO do the swap trick.



    Prior to doing the swap trick, you have to tape down the button inside the SATURN that confirms the LID is CLOSED. After taking the cover off, you'll find the button is located at the top left corner (looking toward the front of the system)/ Taping it down is EASY. I used masking tape. Any tape will do. After taping IT down, put the cover back on and now your ready to do the Swap Trick.

    The Video is pretty self expanitory, but I'll still explain it anyway.

    0) Tape the LID CLOSED Button down. (explained earlier)

    1) Start the Machine with the BACK-UP COPY first. (LID OPEN)

    2) When you see the CD slow down, replace it with any Original CD.

    3) When you see the SEGA logo appear, press the RESET Button.

    4) During the second boot, you'll see the screen flash right before the SATURN logo, that is when you swap in the BACK-UP COPY again. and that's it.

    5) Play

    Oh, one more thing, when making back-up copies, your gonna need to patch the BIN (use CDRwin) with this program. Saturn_Region_Patch Just select your region of SATURN. If your original's are of the same region as your system, you don't need to use the Region Patch Program. Simple ^_^

    Oh yeah, I forgot to add this...

    If your looking for the wrong way to do IT, check Racket Boy's and every other site. None of em are correct.
