Rather than using the Saturn’s cartridge slot, like most Boot Carts, it opts for the VCD Card Slot, located in back behind the clock battery door. Satiator – The Satiator is not really a ‘Drive Emulator’, but more or less a ‘Flash Cart’, as it leaves your Saturn’s CD-ROM drive completely intact. This typically results in faster boot & load times and is completely solid-state, with moving parts to wear out over time. MODE ODE – The MODE Optical Drive Emulator completely replaces your Saturn’s CD-ROM drive and boots all disc images off of an SD Card, USB Stick or SATA SSD. This typically results in faster boot & load times and is completely solid-state, with no moving parts to wear out over time. Fenrir ODE – The Fenrir Optical Drive Emulator completely replaces your Saturn’s CD-ROM drive and boots all disc images off of an SD Card. This is the cheapest option, if you are able to install it yourself.
This allows you to boot a patched game image burned to a standard CD-R. Modchip + CD-R – Also known as a ‘hard-mod’, the Phantom Universal Modchip sits in-between the Saturn’s CD-ROM drive and the motherboard (internally), hijacking the boot process and satisfying the Saturn’s security check. ( NOTE: Since your Saturn’s cart slot will be occupied with the Modem Cart, Action Replay / Pseudo Saturn carts are out… Sorry.) A. You’ll need a way to boot backups on your SEGA Saturn. This method requires patched game images in order to work (so original retail game discs are NOT supported). This the NetBand Tunnel is currently designed for use with REAL HARDWARE and assumes you have a working SEGA Saturn (emulators / MiSTer FPGA core are not supported at present).
