I've always been pretty heavily into retro-gaming over the years (the lovely systems I grew up with like C64, Intellivision, NES, SNES) through the systems I still have and emulators, and just recently I've gone pretty nuts snapping up old games and collecting. It's amazing how timeless some of the old games are, I've had a blast replaying Super Metroid, Castlevania IV, Contra III, etc.
One system that really seemed to pass me by though was the Sega Saturn. I actually worked at Babbage's back in the day when the Playstation and Saturn were duking it out, but the Saturn seemed to come and go relatively quickly. The fun I've had with the Dreamcast I picked up so cheap has got me curious. I've always respected Sega, and remember playing a lot of great Genesis games as well.
What are people's opinions of the system, and moreso its library of games? What are some of the stand-out titles? I've been thinking of picking up a used one to add to my collection and just seeing what I missed out on. Is it worth it?
