The Art of Virtua Fighter | Yu Suzuki interview 1995 | Saturn 2 rumors

Nope. SoJ was the one that apparently pulled rank and released the 32X. Sega's rep was already tarnished. Releasing two Saturn's would've never gave us the Dreamcast.

I was excited for the announcement Virtua Fighter 3 at the time. I felt that it had the most gameplay diversity out of the rest of the games. The uneven grounds, a camera adjuster to play three ways, and certain commands like the sidestep having more than one button. I missed the counters (A back+B) from previous games as well. They had more interesting commands, so I'm going to side with the third as Yu Suzaki's very best work.

Harada added uneven grounds to Tekken 4 as well, which I thought was one of the reasons what made the series at it's prime. Playing on even lines all the time and having more walls/gates from either series after them were more one-dimensional. Overall, the Sega Saturn and Dreamcast were the best of 3d gaming for me.
