I would avoid it, it corrupts some games, admittedly thats more for those that burn games for use on actual hardware.

To fix that though you just need to use CDMage on the patched CD image, scan for corrupt sectors then hit repair, unless they have accounted for this issue but I can't see it.

Just stick to one bios image and just change the area code, ssf should remember the setup for each game individually after you correct it, if you ever do buy a Saturn enabled to play backups you would end up needing to fix all those patched games.

The patch software is realy just there for owner of the Saturn hardware enabled to play backups, the patch will let those users play other region games.

Just to note that site is no way part of the official ssf development

For emulation yes for hardware no, because it creates errors in the CD structure that needs to be fixed

providing you don't share patched games and your only using them for personal use with ssf ect... I see no harm in it, but if the emulation gets even more acurate with updates those games may become unplayable at a later date
