Saturn Japan-exclusives (and PAL-exclusives) with low-language-barrier + fan translations
List extracted from the Saturn Champion Collection, a "one game one rom" set on archive.org that includes one file for every English-playable game
every Sega Saturn game Japan has been hiding from the rest of the world that you can play WITHOUT knowing Japanese
I encourage you to switch the sorting to "Avg Rating" or "Popularity" to prioritize showing you good games instead, or to "Trending"

PAL-exclusives are tacked onto the end of this list due to there not being enough of them to justify its own list
