is virtua fighter 1 on the sega saturn arcade perfect gameplay wise

i no it don't look like the arcade but does it play the same

 

Good question. But this is one of those semi tough questions to answer.
Over the years, I've heard alot of varying opinions on this, from both VF fans and sega fans. Some say yes it is arcade perfect, others say no but the game is close enough to the arcade version.

 

i see thanks for the reply

 

doesn't the Saturn version of the game only run at 30fps? and isn't it considerably more ugly? i'm pretty sure the only good port of VF1 is from the new astro city mini

 

the arcade ran at 30 as well

 

Interesting.

 

virtua racing ran at 30 as well

 

All SEGA Model 1 games run at 30fps but the sky textures scroll at 60fps.

 

thanks for the info

 

VF1 Sega Saturn not arcade perfect.
I had it- it's a good port.
VF2 on Saturn much better.

And there's 2 versions of VF1 on Saturn. 2nd one had better visuals.

 

If you want the authentic Japanese arcade experience outside of dreaming you were there Club Sega days then I recommend grabbing the Astro City Mini from SEGA. Pretty neat little mini system modelled off the legendary cabinets that flooded the Japanese arcade scene back in the day! Similar to the NEO GEO Mini arcade cabinet but filled with 37 SEGA games, mostly arcade ports of 2D SEGA titles that have been seen on compilations before, but the fact it comes with the arcade version of Virtua Fighter was a instant purchase for me personally (the only 3D game on there). Wish it had VF2, but perhaps that may make an appearance on an unannounced future Astro City Mini 2 cabinet. Compatible with Astro City peripherals like controllers and arcade sticks for multiplayer - they are rather costly but there is a way around it with a USB dongle adaptor you can buy from Amazon to use existing peripherals

 

No… but “Remix” might just be what you are looking for
