Grandia features a rotational party roster. The of each party member increase each time they gain a new by defeating enemies and earning. Characters learn new abilities through the repeated use of weapons and spells. Once a particular weapon/magic spell is used a number of times in battle, its Skill Level is raised.

If the player manages to sneak up on the enemy and make contact from the rear, they gain a preemptive strike and attack first. Likewise, if an enemy touches a party member from behind, they get the first strike.
Combat is shown from a third-person overhead view. The IP bar at the bottom right corner of the screen displays a row of icons, which represent all party members and enemies on the screen. When an icon drifts to the midpoint of the IP Bar, that character can choose their next action.

Let me preface everything else I am going to say with I still own my Model 2 Sega Saturn, a bunch of games including all 3 of the Panzer Dragoon games. Please do not bring any conversation about piracy into this thread as I own all games I would possibly play on an emulator. So after watching My Life In Gaming's excellent video about the Saturn and wanting to finally play through all of the Panzer Dragoon games (I have never played the first 2) I started wondering the best way to play Saturn games? I want to get the absolute best picture quality out of the Saturn games. So here is the question what would be the way to get the best picture quality? The Saturn console and purchasing a XRGB-mini Framemeister upscaler, hooked up to my KS8000 TV or to go the emulation route through Mednafen? I am looking for the pluses and minuses for each?
Surprisingly there are very little videos or articles I could find about this. Lastly I am considering also hooking this up to a 27 inch PC monitor if I go hardware so I could use my sound system when playing the Saturn. I however have limited connectivity options (optical, and PC 3.5 hookups).
Would there be anyway using the Framemeister to hook it up with those inputs? MOD EDIT: Just as friendly reminder, please keep in mind our guidelines from the FAQ. Absolutely real hardware thru RGB/SCART on a CRT TV like God intended, but I realize that that might not be practical or possible these days, so the Framemeister option is good too. I don't think there is a way to hook a Saturn up to a PC monitor; if there was, I'd be doing that instead of my PVM setup. Through the FM might be doable, though I wouldn't bother playing any lightgun games on that setup.
All I know is, nothing feels like the real hardware and real controllers. If you're really hard-up, or your Saturn stops working for whatever reason (they're getting on for 30 years old, after all), then I guess you could try Mednafen, though I haven't tried it myself so I couldn't tell you how good it is. Speaking of your Saturn possibly breaking down, the part most likely to break is, of course, the ancient CD drive. I do know that there are hardware modding solutions that can save the rest of the hardware from dereliction. However, since these solutions require the machine's CD drive be removed and replaced with an SD card reader (and I'm sure you can imagine the rest), I won't be discussing these in detail here. Just google for 'saturn rhea pheobe' if your interest is piqued.
Other than that, the next thing you should be buying is an Action Replay Plus 4M, which allows you to play imported games (I.e., cheaper Japanese games!). Play-Asia do them for around £19/$25.99, which is a total bargain for what you get out of it. 4Mb memory card for game saves, 1Mb and 4Mb expansion cards for those tricky Capcom and SNK fighting games, and Action Replay cheats? What's bad about that? Every good exclusive game runs pretty much flawlessly in Mednafen. No idea why people are acting like Saturn emulation is in such a bad state.
Grandia Sega Saturn English
The Saturn's kind of like the Jaguar where you only have to emulate like 5 games and everything good on the platform is preserved. CPSx emulation in MAME made the vast majority of good Saturn games redundant. Luckily, the games that don't work are all pretty much the trash ones you wouldn't want to play anyway. Also, there's a CRT fork of Mednafen that you can find on the arcadecontrols forums that lets you play at its original resolution on a CRT so you could even do that. Click to expand. Absolutely untrue. If I were being incredibly generous, I could possibly think of 10 exclusives that are worth playing, but that'd be setting the bar pretty low for 'must play' games.
It has a very shallow library of exclusives. Most of the appeal of the system was the Sega ModelX ports (which are all terrible compared to emulate arcade versions) and the decent Capcom arcade ports that are also irrelevant in an age where there are great emulators for the actual arcade originals. Yabasanshiro emulator made also a lot of progress, though it is more demanding Currently Elevator Action Returns on Saturn is the best way to experience the original, since Taito F3 GFX emulation on MAME is incomplete. Bubble Bobble 2 has also an arranged OST. I had an issue with Gunbird.
Dialogs go out of sync on emulators, since they synchronise with the Saturns CD reader, as opposed to the instant loading times of emulators. One of my favourite Saturn shmups, Game Paradise,was also ported to PS4 and Steam, with extra character voices, 2 DLC characters, extra video and a planned English translation.

Unless you're suggesting he go out and buy all the arcade versions?.OP has already stated he owns all the games he wants to play, or did you miss that. Unless you're suggesting he go out and buy all the arcade versions? The Saturn is the kind of console that might not be worth it if you don't know Japanese, but if you do, it has a pretty great library with some notable exclusives. I personally own over 30 Saturn games, but admittedly, many of them did see Playstation ports or were multiplats. Here are the Saturn exclusives that I consider worthwhile, but some of them are admittedly a little rough: Burning Rangers, Chaos Seed., Dragon Force, Deep Fear, Gun Griffon, Gun Griffon 2, Nights, Panzer Dragoon, Panzer Dragoon Zwei, Panzer Dragoon Azel, Princess Crown, Saturn Bomberman, Terra Phantastica, Wachenroder.Port of SFC game RE: OSSC - DVI Output? Wtf am I supposed to do with DVI?
I don't believe much in those 'scaling' boxes, though if it's ok for you - go for it. If not, then as i said either 1) CRT goodness 2) Ok, play on small display which resolution is close to 320x240 or whatever. So each pixel is nearly unnoticeble. Or play emulation something like 640x480 window on 720p notebook. 3) Or maybe add crt shaders if they look good for you so you can go fullscreen. I can't stand playing 240p games fullscreen on 1080p monitors and more (with upscalers or not), but you may disagree of course.
