Eureka! Me and RPG have successfully played a few netlink games together! :)

We tested Saturn Bomberman and Sega Rally

Surprisingly Sega Rally ran pretty much lag free! Occasionally you might see a hiccup or two but both games were very playable :) This pretty much brings Saturn online gaming back and means you no longer have to have a traditional phone line service for this to work :)

Sega Rally ran really great! Bomberman was a little laggy/choppy but playable. Definitely a successful morning!

Holy crap. I am so going to do this. I have always regarded the saturn to be a very underrated system that can go toe to toe with the Dreamcast.
