I'm honestly shocked they haven't announced SMS support yet. Hopefully it is possible because I came from an Intellivision/C64/SMS house. Wasn't until college that I had my own Nintendo (64) that I actually borrowed from a friend indefinitely.

I never made it past the Turtle Van part myself. I suck.

I heard that Saturn titles may start appearing on GameTap in the near future. As has already been mentioned GameTap also has a lot of Neo Geo titles available, except for their most popular franchises; i.e. Metal Slug, KOF, Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, Sam Sho. Many of these have made it to compilations (and many individual titles) on the PS2 in Japan. So far it looks like only the MS Anthology has made it statewide. Your best (legal) bet would be to hope that all these downloading services (GameTap, Xbox Live Arcade, PS Network, Virtual Console) do really well so that everything will eventually become available.

Too bad the Wii likely doesn't have enough juice to emulate Sega Saturn games. The Saturn had some great games. Unfortunately, a bunch of these were never translated from Japanese.

They'd perhaps be great for the 360 marketplace.

The only game I have left from my Saturn is X-Men v.s. Street Fighter, but I can't find the import key cartridge to play it.

I've only got a few Saturn games because they are too expensive for me. I sold my copy of Street Fighter collection - no one to play fighting games with - but I still want to play Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shining Force 3, etc.
