Sega Saturn!? Now we're talking! The Saturn is my favorite game system EVAR. It was woefully underrated although that's primarily due to the incredible import line-up.
I used to have quite a collection before selling off a lot of it before I got married. Of course I completely regret selling it all now but at that put I had pretty much planned to get out of video game hoarding/collecting.
I do pirate Saturn stuff (and nothing else anymore other than cartridge roms), but it's mostly because of how ungodly expensive the best/rarest games are. More often than not, I'll buy the game if the price is still reasonable (i.e. under $75 or so), but I don't see myself shelling out $250 for Panzer Dragoon Saga or Radiant Silvergun again. I did own actual copies at one point when the games were brand new so I don't feel THAT bad. Then again, I did recently pay $200 for a copy of Hyper Duel so I guess if I have the money I'll still spend it on something I love. :sweat:
Anyway, Saturn stuff is very hard to come by now. You can always check local pawn shops or donation stores (Goodwill, Salvation Army) and sometimes find the more common US games.
The Goatstore also has a decent selection of US Saturn stuff, but none of the rare games. It may not look it but the site's legit, I know the guy that runs it.
For imports, eBay is still the most common place to find stuff.
Like Keith said, Mad-Gear is awesome and his stuff is in some of the best condition I've ever seen. His prices are usually pretty reasonable too. I don't think he keeps his site updated, but email him and he'll usually try to find what you want.
