What do you get with this service?
This service will replace the stock BIOS from your SEGA Saturn, enabling multi-region disc play. There are two types of BIOS chips: through-hole VA0 (early model 1 consoles), and SMD mounted chip (the rest of the console). This service will replace the BIOS from any revision with a japanese region-free BIOS. If you want a different version, please get in touch in advance.
The BIOS chip is included so you don’t need to worry about purchasing one separately.
