The Sega Saturn Super System!

When someone bought a Saturn, they got two things as bonus. The first was a demo CD that was a giant commercial on why you should buy a Saturn. Now, at first you’re thinking “well, that’s just retarded” until you consider it’s just Sega’s way of having Saturn owners sell Saturns to their friends.

“Can we play games?”

“Sure, after you watch this informative presentation on the reasons why you should buy a Saturn. And remember, the Saturn can be bought at fine stores everywhere.”

Anyway, the other thing Sega gave were some spiffy Saturn stickers.

At the store, Gord had a double-wide, hard-cover CD case which held 24 CD’s and was black. And one day a Saturn sticker ended up on it.

Eventually the Saturn died, having never been seen by most people which lead to interesting times. Occasionally someone would ask if the case was in fact a Saturn.

“Why yes, yes it is.”

“Really? It looks odd.”

“But check this out, it holds 24 games at once! You just put the game in and never have to take it out or worry about it being scratched.”

“Wow! That’s cool!”

“It is. Shame the system didn’t do well.”

“Why doesn’t the PlayStation do that?”

“They do in Japan, the PS-ML, or PlayStation Multi-Loader. Looks a bit like a multi-disc CD holder for your car. It should be out here next year.”

“Great. I’ll pick one up.”
