Still trying to get my hands on a copy of Sega Ages 2500 Phantasy Star Complete Collection for a decent price. It has Japanese and English versions of all four original games on it. As well as an option to increase walking speed in PS2&3. Also I might be wrong, but I think they might've even tweaked the encounter rates to be a bit more fair as well.
I'm quickly remembering how big of a money pit the Saturn is. I traded $30 worth of games I got with it (that I don't want) for an action replay, then I had to dump money for the 3D controller and then I looked up all the US games I'm going to want (I kept my imports from last time) and just kind of wept quietly. At least I traded the other games I got with it (4 total) for $150 worth of games (mainly psp and ps2). I honestly just wish it had come with some stuff I was interested in but I guess when you get the console for $5 and some semi-valuable (in terms of Saturn games) games for $1 each complete in VG-EX condition you can't complain too much...
It's also going to cost me about $100 to whore out all my sega consoles for this video scaler. It's also going to take physical work, for instance for the Saturn I have to get a European cord and solder it with a US cord. Apparently it's the tits though so I'm going for it, and I'm going for a custom Dreamcast VGA box.
Yeah, it works great.I play all my Genesis games through it using composite. Which gives a much better picture than playing than through composite on just the Genesis. I really just need to start getting Scart cables for all the retro consoles that I can though. PSIV through RGB->Component on my 32" CRT.

I have a couple really good Sony ones. My dream is to find one of these: http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=43256
Also, I got Phantasy Star Portable 2 today in case you don't check the purchase thread. It made me so happy.
The main issue with that TV of course is finding it locally. I'd happily pay $200-250 for it but E-bay is a bit more but more importantly I get nervous with stuff like that being shipped because other people are usually horrible at packing. Plus shipping would seriously be around $100.
