Saturn wins by a momentous landslide on this one. More detailed images way more detailed animations and more animated objects and far quicker loading times. The PlayStation puts up such a poor showing it looks like its from a previous generation of consoles in comparison.
I kinda wish this comparison put a focus on some of the walk cycles and attack animations too, because that's where the majority of the cuts and PS1 Frankensteining happened.
Another example of Sega of America missing out on a huge chance to sell a lot of Saturns here in the USA with the difference the 4Mb Ram cart made in this game
@@Scorpion24 Yeah the rushed launch that Tom Kalinske was totally not in favor of really hurt them here in the USA with the Saturn launching so close to the launch of the 32X. I was a SEGA kid growing up starting with the SMS while all but 1 of my friends was Nintendo, Genesis generation on the other hand almost everyone had both. My bias died when SEGA left the console market.
By the time this game dropped the Saturn was already dead in the US. So sadly even this game wouldn't have saved it. Plus many Saturn owners did by the export game anyway.
as animações no Saturn são infinitamente superiores, além de não ter loading entre as lutas. O Saturn era famoso pelos jogos de lutas convertidos do arcade, com conversões muito melhores que o restante dos consoles da época.
I've played both the Sega Saturn & PS1 versions of this game. I have to say the Saturn version is easily superior, and i'm glad i imported it.Even side by side comparisons show that even the animations are fluid.
For sure. I copped a Saturn back in 97 just for the Arcade fighting games. I remember playing MVC on PS1. No tagging and unbelievably slow load times, I assume PS1s ram was inferior to Saturn. I heard X Men vs SF is trash on PS1 also.
@@WizardOfWor I wonder why they didn't tho? Could've doubled the sales figures for Sega! I can still recall that they slashed the price on the PS1 import down to like 25 bucks; just shortly after release, cuz they prolly KNEW it wasn't really goin' anywhere sales-wise.🤔
NewGamingOrder yes but unfortunately back then, as is the case now, more people cared about 3D graphics which the ps1 was better at. But no doubt the Saturn was a 2D power house.
The Saturn had more RAM than the PSX and with an extra RAM cartridge for the Saturn XvSF was almost arcade perfect with less load times. Their 3D graphics however were another issue. RE for the Saturn was a nightmare to look at.
OH WOW, I thought the difference was only the character-swapping mechanism, which was the main selling point for this Vs Series, so yeah, so deeply disappointed with the PS1 version back in those days. Never thought the character animations are affected BIG TIME, the PS1 version SUCKS!!!
The worst part, is knowing that US retailers were making SHITLOADS of $$$ selling PS1 owners these INFERIOR ports back in the 90's... Can't believe that they were asking $60 for the PS1 versions back then!
@@BurritoKingdom I can still remember SNES and Genesis games costing as much as $80 back in 1992... But the supply and demand was different back then, cuz nobody could pirate or emulate those games so easily. But the PS1 version of THIS game is not even worth the $15 asking price for a sealed copy in the bargain bin section!
What sucks is how well this game did in the US after the Saturn was discontinued. Japanese imports continued to sell. Because fans and retailers had more faith in the console then Sega did.
this video makes me wonder why people are saying playstation was better than saturn when the Saturn version of this was more identical to the arcade version
@@segaunited3855 it had the better 3D hardware but it was poorly implemented as it was built in last minute to compete with the PlayStation. So programming great looking and playing 3D games on the Saturn became almost impossible. Leading to inferior 3D ports of games compared to the PS.
@@Shinobi33 No Sir, that's a Common Myth. Aurora/Saturn was ALWAYS built to be 3D from the Ground up, its just that the Beta Design of the Saturn was rushed into production 4 Months TOO Early in December 1993.

The Saturn with a 4MB cart was a fucking 2D beast in Japan. The PlayStation by itself was a fucking 3D beast everywhere. They both had their strengths; no need for a war.
Technically, Saturn was the true 3D beast. Saturn had more power than Playstation in almost every way if you look at the specs. It was the more powerful console before the N64 came out (and the never released 3DO M2, which was far more powerful than PSX, Saturn and even N64 but way less powerful than Sega Model 2/3 and Dreamcast).
Correct. Saturn is a Pseudo 64-bit Console. Its powered with 4 Main processors(TWO 32-bit Threads, and TWO 32-bit Registers) with a Max Clockspeed of 56.7 MHZ, and 50 MIPS. Saturn is Also MUCH more Powerful than PlayStation. TWICE its power. With 4 MBs of Max RAM(as opposed to PS1's 1 MB), 500k Flat Shaded Polygons, as opposed to PS1's 360,000, Higher resolution, Faster more powerful clockspeed, and surprise: Saturn had even BETTER 3D technology than PS1. Yes, its TRUE. PS1 doesn't have Z Buffering, Can't do Perspective Correct or Multi Threading, Lacks Affine Plane Drawing, Can't do Dithers or Sprite Diffusion. PS1 also only used 48KB of Chache for Sprite and Polygon drawing, Saturn used Dual 256KBs. Saturn and Nintendo 64 are capable of all of these features.
na verdade sem o cartucho de expansão as lutas ficavam de 1x1 como no ps1 e tinham mais loading e sprites cortados, o cartucho de expansão fazia muita diferença mesmo, joguei no saturn do meu primo
Veja o xmen children of the atom por exemplo , tinha mais loadings , mais cortes em relação ao arcade porém menos cortes que o ps1 , loading menor e mais fluidez em geral .
Sérgio Caldeira A Sega estava a frente do seu tempo em muitos aspectos. Desde o Mega Drive, os jogos da Sega eram mais maduros e inovadores do que os jogos da Nintendo, os quais eram grande parte "bonitinhos" e "politicamente corretos". Infelizmente os jogos da Sega não eram jogos "de massa", mas apreciados por um público mais seleto. Isso aliado a erros mercadológicos fez a empresa quebrar.
@@SomeOrangeCat The point is that the Saturn has great 3D games as well. Not every 2D game was best on the Saturn. Symphony of the Night is a good example of a bad 2D Saturn port.
I remember as a kid reading the instruction book for the PS1 version of this game cover to cover trying to figure out how to switch characters lol. Such a fail of a port.
@@Velasper Yes it was. It had more power, Higher Flat Shaded Polygons, Far more RAM and Memory, was capable of more Renders, and was SUPERIOR at mapping and texturing.
Back in the day I didn’t care for games like this, because they were 2D and not 3D. Now looking back I see how many amazing games I missed out on. I had a PS1, but I didn’t even know this game existed.
2D fighting games way back in the past had relied mostly on attack execution, recovery speed, combo timing, counters, reversals, and cornering or zoning in your opponents... Then when 3D fighting games started becoming a thing; it was like more about ring strategy then cuz you could now at least run, dodge, or roll outta the way more easily.
No Saturn além de carregar mais Rapido tem Spriters mais caprichados, joga com os 2 chars que nem nos Arcades e o Magneto tem animação excelente todos no Saturno tem, no Psx eles nem se mexe as mãos nem os músculos como no Saturn mas mesmo assim no Psx é Divertido inclusive tenho aqui pra ele ^^ Boa Comparação ficou supimpa :)
I have the EX Edition of the PS1 game it's amazing. I do prefer the Saturn version but that lesser known EX Edition of X-Men Vs Street Fighter for the PS1 is amazing, Japan only release.
The $ONY fanboys wouldn't hear ANY of that kinda reasoning tho... They all just wanted to BURY the Saturn into the dirt, and personally make sure that it NEVER gets ANYWHERE in the USofAIDS!!!
That RAM cart made all the difference, it really is night and day. I *adored* my Saturn and, even without the RAM cart, playing MSH on it was a near orgasmic experience. Amazing system for 2D fighters .. though sadly barely a handful came out of Japan.
@@segaunited3855 Yup. If it doesn't count when SNES and NES use extra chips in the carts, it doesn't count when Saturn uses the ram cart either. You don't get to have your cake and eat it too, you biased fangirl.
@@kekeke8988 No No sir that's not what the 4 MB RAM cart is for. It is not an Extra Chip. Its an Expansion Pak Cartridge with Extra Memory much like N64's. There's No Chip inside the Cartridge. The RAM Cart is exploiting the Saturn's Extra 4 MB VRAM that's built into the console already. Saturn has 4 MBs of Video RAM compared to PS1's 1 MB and Nintendo 64's 5 MBs of Video RAM. There's no Cheating going on. The Cartridge is simply pushing the amount of VRAM up to its Theoretical Maximum of 8 MBs. CPS3 has over 8-16 MBs of VRAM on average. The Extra Memory helps manage Saturn's Built in Animations, Playfields,BGs,Paralax Scrolling, Translucency. You should get informed. Stop reading Wikipedia. Learn Console Schematics. Saturn and Nintendo 64 had Genuine for 2D and 3D Wireframing, PS1 did not. It relied on SOFTWARE tools for effects. But was bottlenecked because it had only 1 MB of Exploitable Video RAM and didn't have real 3D Hardware that could map and texture properly. So it relied entirely on Rendering and Polygon Drawing.
@@segaunited3855 That troll just needs to GET FUCKED... He dunno the first thing when it comes to doing ports on different gaming systems! The N64 was originally gonna have a 32MB RAM expansion cart planned in its demised future for arcade-perfect ports of SNK games like AOF3, RBFF, SSIV, and KOF'97. All supposeably to be released by the end of 1999. The initial demo carts weighed in at over 500+ megs. The games were supposed to be directly made by SNK themselves, and NOT by a half-assed 3rd party publisher like Takara. They were planning to sell those N64 ports for like 150 to 250 bucks a piece. No loading or missing frames of animations whatsoever. The audio and sound effect were going to be pretty close to CD-quality, but not exactly 100% perfect tho. Prolly ripped right from the NGCD versions, and then converted to whatever audio formats the N64 uses. Otherwise, arcade-perfect in every regard. When they tested demo carts of those games ported on the N64, I heard that they ran into some 'heating problems' with it, cuz the carts ran rather HOT in the system; due to all the MEGS. Cuz rarely do you ever see an N64 cart come in at over 512 megs. With 512 megs, they could already port like pretty much ANY game in the whole entire SNK library to the N64. Games that required like 1024 megs on the Neo Geo AES, could prolly still be ported reasonably well on the N64 with at least 80% accuracy. It really depends, on if there was ever such a need and also if they were gonna use good compression techniques or not. With the N64's speed and processing power + the HUGE cart sizes, I highly doubt that the SNK game ports would look nearly as bad as the ones did back then on the SNES tho. However, the project was ultimately SCRAPPED because of excessively high production costs; and the infamous 'cartridge tax' from Nintendon't! 😥
Muito bom o vídeo!! Realmente o Sega Saturn muito na frente!!! Na parte da tempestade ficou ótimo deu pra ver certinho a animação dela no Saturn na cabeça, pernas e no PlayStation sem animação alguma!! Mais em questão do jogo em si é bem próximo!! Até no PlayStation tinha mais coisas no cenário!! Tipo uma janela no fundo a mais acesa, que não vi no Saturno!! Mais realmente em questão de animação sem comparação!! Saturno anos luz na frente!! Ele foi um projeto muito avançado pra época!! Parabéns a Sega por essa máquina de jogos de luta!!
Damn did not know there was that much of a difference until seeing it side by side. Would be amazing to get an updated Marvel vs Capcom, Marvel vs Street Fighter, Xmen vs Street Fighter port.
Playstation really jacked this one up. And had Sega Saturn stayed around and fixed their bugs on this game for the American version, it would've put Sony in shambles.
I always thought the PS1 looked better because I was biased lol. But I always knew the Saturn one was better. The best one in my opinion is definitely the DreamCast. I love these vids! Keep it up man
They can fudge up the reviews all they want in the gaming magazines and websites; but that still won't ever change the FACT that the PS1 versions will ALWAYS be INFERIOR!!! 👎👎👎👎👎
Both are made to manage 2D and 3D. Most of PS1 3D games use more 2D elements than 3D polygons. The Saturn can manage more polygons rates than PS1. They just manage both in two differents way.
damn, this game was serious garbage on playstation. All the frames and sprites left out, it was like trying to put this on a SNES cart. But with loading? o.O where's my Saturn?
There's just NO comparison period... The PS1 with all of its hardware short-commings, never really had a chance to begin with. Incredibly LAME move from Sony, for NOT including more dedicated onboard RAM (or at least some kinda RAM expansion add-on); when the system was released during what was arguably considered the height and peak era of arcade fighting games in general. Most, if not ALL of the arcade ports on the PS1 suffered horribly from the obvious lack of RAM, and it clearly shows. The devs like Capcom and SNK, were literally FORCED to make HUGE cuts and sacrifices in the gameplay and features; in order work around all the hardware issues, just to make the PS1 ports work. I have NO doubt it must've been a real pain in the ass for them to work on the PS1 ports! More RAM could've benefited ALL types of games; not just fighting and arcade ports. Just like how a BIGGER house would benefit a LARGER family. Sega may have had some really bad marketing/sales problems in the US, but Sony had all of the marketshare and sales advantages they could ever want; and did NOT try to improve on it even further with just one simple hardware upgrade/fix. 👎
This isn't even a comparison, the Saturn version was basically the arcade machine in your house, the PSX version was just a sad, broken shell of the game. Also I forgot how utterly atrocious Capcom of America's cover art was at the time. Their entire marketing dept should have been fired.
I feel sorry for those who only played this game on the PS1. They got ripped off. I had a friend that didn't even know that you could switch between characters in a match. 😔
Yeah. I had both versions and basically "demo'd" them to people on the same display setup way back then. We had a lively arcade scene where I lived at the time, so it was easy. The Saturn version I imported was never localized, but I had a good percentage of people "enlightened" just by playing both (without even saying a word).
The colors, the fonts, the size of the sprites, and the background details are almost exactly the same but the PSX version has SO MANY frames of animation cut out from it that it's not even funny...
This game was way better on the Saturn than the PSX. They took out the tag feature on the PSX and I feel as if that's what made it bad on it, that and the Saturn had a faster loading time.
Not only that, but the Saturn gamepad was way hella better, much more accurate, and alot more comfortable for playing any sort of fighting games on compared to the standard default PS1 controller... Just try doing half-circle or 360 motions on the PS1 controller's D-pad; it'll blister your thumbs rather painfully!
3:00 look at SEGA Saturns version Magneto hands and cape, the animation is beautiful and the PS version lacks of that animation, look at the background as well
Vaaaaaleu pelo video!! X-men vs Street-Fighter e o meu jogo favorito de luta. Eu assisti ele umas 5 vezes...Mesmo ja sabendo que o Sega Saturn tem um porte bem mais fiel ao arcade do que o PS, foi extremamente gratificante ver o dois side-by-side. Eu jogo bem mais a versao do PS1 no meu PS3, mas um dia ainda vou comprar um Saturno so por esse jogo. Parabens pelos videos de alta qualidade! Ja apertei o botao do like umas 50 vezes! lol...Abraco!
PH CLANK cara vc gostou da versão de ps1 mesmo? Eu tenho mas o fato de não poder trocar os personagens, deixa a desejar. Eu comprei um emulador para jogar a versão de Arcade no meu xbox 360
A versão Saturn é infinitamente superior, possui um número muito maior de frames dos personagens e estágios e ainda nem contou a possibilidade de troca de personagens durante as lutas.
The Saturn, if I recall, ran the game on a 4 MB RAM cart allowing for more animations and reduced load times. In addition, it could better handle running 2D games considering the tag team feature for XMvSF was intact for Saturn, while it was nixed on PS1 due to memory limitations. So for this comparison, Saturn easily prevails.
The Saturn port relied entirely on expansion memory and extra RAM, as well as the Sprite Drawing capabilities that PSX simply didn't have. Also Saturn was capable of Z Buffering. PSX is not. Saturn even bested PS1 at 3D, as well.
@@segaunited3855 And for those reasons alone, I can't believe that they actually had the nerve to allow yet another 2 more installments of this series to be ported on the underpowered PS1; which obviously could NOT handle it...
@@segaunited3855 The extremely durable and perfectly-designed Saturn controllers were already worth the investment alone... They lasted so damn long, you almost never needed to replace them. Not only did the PS1 controllers broke down hella quick, but the weird button placements and those stiff-ass/unresponsive D-pads + all the bad framerates on the games; made it like nearly impossible to enjoy any kinda fighting games!
@@SDSOverfiend My friend got his Saturn used/preowned from Funcoland, and he still got at least 8 solid years of use out of it before he finally moved onto newer systems... His 2 Saturn gamepads are still workin' even to this day. Those things were made to survive a WAR. Fighters on the PSUX were just a STRUGGLE to play, and I would literally go thru like at least 5 or 6 controllers in just a year!
It did not. Because of the low numbers the Saturn did in North America and SoA COO, Bernie Stolar saying that the Saturn was not Sega's future, Capcom canceled the NA release of the game which probably would have been in 1998.
Sega saturn loads very fast with out the load sceen it instantly went the demo with out load screen even has best picture quality antoher reason i want sega saturn it's more powerful than ps1
saturn version is clearly superior. the ONLY thing the psx could possibly be argued favorably for that is the health bars and character icons are less obtrusive. it’s actually shocking how much animation is dropped from the psx, including entire animations/sprites.
The amount of animations that had to be cut for X-Men vs Street Fighter to even work on the PS1 is just staggering. It’s insane how much was lost in just one single port. The Sega Saturn version is definitely ten times better. What a shame we never got to experience that version in it's prime here in the west.
@@kekeke8988 The PS1 simply didn't have enough processor power or RAM to handle all of the animations nor the tag feature... You would THINK that they prolly could've just sacrificed like one thing for the other; like by totally omitting the tag feature in favor having FULL frames of animation, and then just turn it around into a pure 1-on-1 fighting game instead that at least plays OK. But in this case here, they seem to have just dropped the ball on EVERYTHING!!!
Where has the 60fps in your videos gone? Games that were 60fps in your older videos were displayed at that frame rate, but all the newer ones aren't 60fps anymore. RUclips still says the video is 1080p60, but the actual content is 30fps.
Comparação foda essa dai, gostei Muito Saturn arrebenta no 2D sem chances para o Psx e olhe que eu sou o Apreciador Nato do Psx nunca neguei isso o Melhor VG daquela Gen na minha Humilde Opinião Psx Mito, só que eu não sou Cego como os Fã Boys são, não sou Hater muito menos enrustido que sai por aí dando deslikes nos Vídeos só por que meu Console Favorito tomou uma Pisa isso é coisa de Fraco enrustidinho e Chorão, e já mais eu tiraria Méritos de um Console como o Saturn que foi um Baita de um VG charmoso, comparação foda essa, se eu fosse um Fã Boy de Marca eu daria Deslike, mas graças a Deus eu não sou esses Tipinhos Mimizentos da Net, sei reconhecer pontos fracos e fortes de cada Console sem Frescuragem.
Lembro que meu Saturn era americano e o CD que eu tinha era japonês. Ou era o cartucho de 4MB ou o de destravamento de região. O jogo ficou meses pegando poeira...até que um amigo teve a idéia de inserir primeiro o cartucho de região e no timing certo, trocar pelo cartucho de RAM. Funcionou de primeira e foi só alegria. Depois disso, fiquei muito tempo sem ir ao fliperama. Jogaço. Pena que só vi SF Zero 3 através de emulação.
Saludos, en este juego se entendía el recorte de las animaciones pero no entendí para que cambiar el anunciador aun con el truco en PlayStation para jugar de dos vs dos, en ese tiempo cualquiera babeaba por jugar en su casita aunque sea de esa forma, otra cosa que me gusto de algunos juegos de capcon es que cuando escogías a los mismos personajes para los dos jugadores aumentaban las animaciones y disminuían los tiempos de carga.
If Capcom would have brought over the 4mb cart overseas and made most of their fighting games exclusive to the Saturn, i'd bet the Saturn would have been more successful
The $ONY fanboys wouldn't hear ANY of that kinda reasoning tho... They all just wanted to BURY the Saturn into the dirt, and personally make sure that it NEVER gets ANYWHERE in the USofAIDS!!!
Let’s also not forget that SNES SF2 was the VERY first port of its time on a 2MB cartridge, and despite the changes that needed to be made it was the most accurate arcade port of the time. You didn’t lose a core part of the game with that version. Nor did you with either SF2T or SSF2.
saturn uses full 2d graphics and the conversion is very faithful to the arcade. In the other hand the ps1 looks good but uses fake 2d graphics (because doesn't have the hardware to do something) and has more loading times so in this round saturn wins
Look at Castlevania SotN or Raiden II completely destroys the Saturn in 2D, Developers didnt bother they just ported their bad optimized arcade games to consoles
He's right about Castlevania, it's a much better port than the Saturn version. Saturn was more powerful for 2D but it was also harder to develop for. If the dev didn't make the most of both visual processors then both 3D and 2D suffered, and a lot of developers did not utilise the full power of the console, which is why some PS ports were quite a bit better.
Saturn by a mile.
That's why we have Saturn 5 nowadays... Oh wait

OH WOW, I thought the difference was only the character-swapping mechanism, which was the main selling point for this Vs Series, so yeah, so deeply disappointed with the PS1 version back in those days. Never thought the character animations are affected BIG TIME, the PS1 version SUCKS!!!
The worst part, is knowing that US retailers were making SHITLOADS of $$$ selling PS1 owners these INFERIOR ports back in the 90's... Can't believe that they were asking $60 for the PS1 versions back then!
@@OtomoTenzi PS1 games were $50. It wasn't until PS360 era that games jumped to $60. Now $70 for PS5/series era.
@@BurritoKingdom I can still remember SNES and Genesis games costing as much as $80 back in 1992... But the supply and demand was different back then, cuz nobody could pirate or emulate those games so easily. But the PS1 version of THIS game is not even worth the $15 asking price for a sealed copy in the bargain bin section!
What sucks is how well this game did in the US after the Saturn was discontinued. Japanese imports continued to sell. Because fans and retailers had more faith in the console then Sega did.
Saturn wins easily.

I laughed at this before the video even started, because I remember how ragged ass the PlayStation version was.

PlayStation is better than Saturn in 3d understand
@@maquiztop6018 Nope. Saturn has Superior Hardware. Its better at 3D too.
@@segaunited3855 it had the better 3D hardware but it was poorly implemented as it was built in last minute to compete with the PlayStation. So programming great looking and playing 3D games on the Saturn became almost impossible. Leading to inferior 3D ports of games compared to the PS.
@@Shinobi33 No Sir, that's a Common Myth. Aurora/Saturn was ALWAYS built to be 3D from the Ground up, its just that the Beta Design of the Saturn was rushed into production 4 Months TOO Early in December 1993.

The Saturn with a 4MB cart was a fucking 2D beast in Japan.
The PlayStation by itself was a fucking 3D beast everywhere.
They both had their strengths; no need for a war.
苑安雄 peace and no war I wish Japan safety from North Korea my friend.
NO! I wanna fight
Technically, Saturn was the true 3D beast. Saturn had more power than Playstation in almost every way if you look at the specs. It was the more powerful console before the N64 came out (and the never released 3DO M2, which was far more powerful than PSX, Saturn and even N64 but way less powerful than Sega Model 2/3 and Dreamcast).
PS1 handled 3D POORLY.
People just didn't realize it, then.
Correct.
Saturn is a Pseudo 64-bit Console. Its powered with 4 Main processors(TWO 32-bit Threads, and TWO 32-bit Registers) with a Max Clockspeed of 56.7 MHZ, and 50 MIPS.
Saturn is Also MUCH more Powerful than PlayStation. TWICE its power. With 4 MBs of Max RAM(as opposed to PS1's 1 MB), 500k Flat Shaded Polygons, as opposed to PS1's 360,000, Higher resolution, Faster more powerful clockspeed, and surprise: Saturn had even BETTER 3D technology than PS1. Yes, its TRUE. PS1 doesn't have Z Buffering, Can't do Perspective Correct or Multi Threading, Lacks Affine Plane Drawing, Can't do Dithers or Sprite Diffusion. PS1 also only used 48KB of Chache for Sprite and Polygon drawing, Saturn used Dual 256KBs.
Saturn and Nintendo 64 are capable of all of these features.
So much more detail in the Saturn version. Glad it's the copy that I have.
Saturn's like "bitch please"
Sem comentários, a versão do saturn foi o arcade na época em casa, o cartucho de expansão de memória fez toda diferença.
na verdade sem o cartucho de expansão as lutas ficavam de 1x1 como no ps1 e tinham mais loading e sprites cortados, o cartucho de expansão fazia muita diferença mesmo, joguei no saturn do meu primo
Esse jogo nem funciona sem cartucho.
O cartucho já vinha com o jogo .
Veja o xmen children of the atom por exemplo , tinha mais loadings , mais cortes em relação ao arcade porém menos cortes que o ps1 , loading menor e mais fluidez em geral .
Andre Luiz silva eu jogava sem cartucho de expansão
Quando lembro do saturn penso...
A Sega estava certa o tempo é que estava errado.
Sérgio Caldeira Melhor definição impossível.
Sérgio Caldeira ótima observação 👍👍
Sérgio Caldeira A Sega estava a frente do seu tempo em muitos aspectos. Desde o Mega Drive, os jogos da Sega eram mais maduros e inovadores do que os jogos da Nintendo, os quais eram grande parte "bonitinhos" e "politicamente corretos". Infelizmente os jogos da Sega não eram jogos "de massa", mas apreciados por um público mais seleto. Isso aliado a erros mercadológicos fez a empresa quebrar.

I remember as a kid reading the instruction book for the PS1 version of this game cover to cover trying to figure out how to switch characters lol. Such a fail of a port.
I had nothing to compare it to, so it was great.
The Saturn version absolutely owns the PS1 one in this comparison video. It’s a shame that it never got a release outside of Japan though.
PS Version: Characters used much stronger hair gel, no wind influence ;-) . It's so obvious the Saturn version kicked the PS in this game.
Wow, the Saturn really was a kickass console for 2D games, this is pratically identical to the Arcade.
When Saturn's better it's no contest. But vice versa is usually a petty difference ps1 fanboys exploit.

Back in the day I didn’t care for games like this, because they were 2D and not 3D. Now looking back I see how many amazing games I missed out on. I had a PS1, but I didn’t even know this game existed.
2D fighting games way back in the past had relied mostly on attack execution, recovery speed, combo timing, counters, reversals, and cornering or zoning in your opponents... Then when 3D fighting games started becoming a thing; it was like more about ring strategy then cuz you could now at least run, dodge, or roll outta the way more easily.
A versão do Saturn humilhou totalmente!
If the Saturn came with a 16MB RAM cart, it would've ate ALL the other 90's consoles alive! (except for the Dreamcast)
No Saturn além de carregar mais Rapido tem Spriters mais caprichados, joga com os 2 chars que nem nos Arcades e o Magneto tem animação excelente todos no Saturno tem, no Psx eles nem se mexe as mãos nem os músculos como no Saturn mas mesmo assim no Psx é Divertido inclusive tenho aqui pra ele ^^ Boa Comparação ficou supimpa :)
I have the EX Edition of the PS1 game it's amazing. I do prefer the Saturn version but that lesser known EX Edition of X-Men Vs Street Fighter for the PS1 is amazing, Japan only release.
God damn, I know ps1 was terrible but I didn't know they removed tons of animation on the xmen.
The Saturn one is light-years ahead! after the first loading screen we never see a loading screen again.
The $ONY fanboys wouldn't hear ANY of that kinda reasoning tho... They all just wanted to BURY the Saturn into the dirt, and personally make sure that it NEVER gets ANYWHERE in the USofAIDS!!!
Saturn does what PS1 doesn't.
That RAM cart made all the difference, it really is night and day. I *adored* my Saturn and, even without the RAM cart, playing MSH on it was a near orgasmic experience. Amazing system for 2D fighters .. though sadly barely a handful came out of Japan.
Cheating with extra hardware doesn't count. Only valid comparisons are like Mega Man x4 or Symphony of the Night.
@@kekeke8988 Nope.
@@segaunited3855
Yup. If it doesn't count when SNES and NES use extra chips in the carts, it doesn't count when Saturn uses the ram cart either. You don't get to have your cake and eat it too, you biased fangirl.
@@kekeke8988 No No sir that's not what the 4 MB RAM cart is for. It is not an Extra Chip. Its an Expansion Pak Cartridge with Extra Memory much like N64's. There's No Chip inside the Cartridge. The RAM Cart is exploiting the Saturn's Extra 4 MB VRAM that's built into the console already. Saturn has 4 MBs of Video RAM compared to PS1's 1 MB and Nintendo 64's 5 MBs of Video RAM.
There's no Cheating going on. The Cartridge is simply pushing the amount of VRAM up to its Theoretical Maximum of 8 MBs. CPS3 has over 8-16 MBs of VRAM on average. The Extra Memory helps manage Saturn's Built in Animations, Playfields,BGs,Paralax Scrolling, Translucency.
You should get informed. Stop reading Wikipedia. Learn Console Schematics. Saturn and Nintendo 64 had Genuine for 2D and 3D Wireframing, PS1 did not. It relied on SOFTWARE tools for effects. But was bottlenecked because it had only 1 MB of Exploitable Video RAM and didn't have real 3D Hardware that could map and texture properly. So it relied entirely on Rendering and Polygon Drawing.
@@segaunited3855 That troll just needs to GET FUCKED... He dunno the first thing when it comes to doing ports on different gaming systems! The N64 was originally gonna have a 32MB RAM expansion cart planned in its demised future for arcade-perfect ports of SNK games like AOF3, RBFF, SSIV, and KOF'97. All supposeably to be released by the end of 1999. The initial demo carts weighed in at over 500+ megs. The games were supposed to be directly made by SNK themselves, and NOT by a half-assed 3rd party publisher like Takara. They were planning to sell those N64 ports for like 150 to 250 bucks a piece. No loading or missing frames of animations whatsoever. The audio and sound effect were going to be pretty close to CD-quality, but not exactly 100% perfect tho. Prolly ripped right from the NGCD versions, and then converted to whatever audio formats the N64 uses. Otherwise, arcade-perfect in every regard. When they tested demo carts of those games ported on the N64, I heard that they ran into some 'heating problems' with it, cuz the carts ran rather HOT in the system; due to all the MEGS. Cuz rarely do you ever see an N64 cart come in at over 512 megs. With 512 megs, they could already port like pretty much ANY game in the whole entire SNK library to the N64. Games that required like 1024 megs on the Neo Geo AES, could prolly still be ported reasonably well on the N64 with at least 80% accuracy. It really depends, on if there was ever such a need and also if they were gonna use good compression techniques or not. With the N64's speed and processing power + the HUGE cart sizes, I highly doubt that the SNK game ports would look nearly as bad as the ones did back then on the SNES tho. However, the project was ultimately SCRAPPED because of excessively high production costs; and the infamous 'cartridge tax' from Nintendon't! 😥
Wow Saturn easy win, ps1 version runs like crap.
Muito bom o vídeo!! Realmente o Sega Saturn muito na frente!!! Na parte da tempestade ficou ótimo deu pra ver certinho a animação dela no Saturn na cabeça, pernas e no PlayStation sem animação alguma!! Mais em questão do jogo em si é bem próximo!!

Ele foi um projeto muito avançado pra época!! Parabéns a Sega por essa máquina de jogos de luta!!
Damn did not know there was that much of a difference until seeing it side by side. Would be amazing to get an updated Marvel vs Capcom, Marvel vs Street Fighter, Xmen vs Street Fighter port.
saturn instantly wins this one, the system fits 2d games better.
Playstation really jacked this one up. And had Sega Saturn stayed around and fixed their bugs on this game for the American version, it would've put Sony in shambles.
I always thought the PS1 looked better because I was biased lol. But I always knew the Saturn one was better. The best one in my opinion is definitely the DreamCast.
I love these vids! Keep it up man
They can fudge up the reviews all they want in the gaming magazines and websites; but that still won't ever change the FACT that the PS1 versions will ALWAYS be INFERIOR!!! 👎👎👎👎👎
If the reviewers gave the PS1 version anything more than a 5/10, then they clearly had to be Sony fanboys...
These type of games is what the Saturn was built for. When they saw Sony going 3D is when shit got fucked up.
Sega Saturn: Better for 2D Games
PlayStation 1: Better for 3D Games
Dreamcast: Both
Sega Saturn: Better at Both 2D and 3D.
Tornado1994
SS: Only in 2D power with add RAM extra.
Both are made to manage 2D and 3D. Most of PS1 3D games use more 2D elements than 3D polygons. The Saturn can manage more polygons rates than PS1. They just manage both in two differents way.
Saturn is more technically superior than PS1.
damn, this game was serious garbage on playstation. All the frames and sprites left out, it was like trying to put this on a SNES cart. But with loading? o.O where's my Saturn?
not only that. ps version, you couldn't swap out characters , unless both players picked the same fighters.
Then I'd rather have it on the SNES... At least I know there won't be ANY loading!
O saturns sempre levou uma vantagem enorme nas suas versões caseiras com relação ao playtation, principalmente nos jogos de luta
Nos games 3D, incluindo os de luta, PS1 leva vantagem.
damn I only had playstation growing up didn't know all the animations were lacking

and loads wayyy fasters. fantastic!
@@nyastclair8174 Hell yeargh... Do ya remember how the load times were like on the 3DO?
There's just NO comparison period...
The PS1 with all of its hardware short-commings, never really had a chance to begin with.
Incredibly LAME move from Sony, for NOT including more dedicated onboard RAM (or at least some kinda RAM expansion add-on); when the system was released during what was arguably considered the height and peak era of arcade fighting games in general.
Most, if not ALL of the arcade ports on the PS1 suffered horribly from the obvious lack of RAM, and it clearly shows.
The devs like Capcom and SNK, were literally FORCED to make HUGE cuts and sacrifices in the gameplay and features; in order work around all the hardware issues, just to make the PS1 ports work.
I have NO doubt it must've been a real pain in the ass for them to work on the PS1 ports!
More RAM could've benefited ALL types of games; not just fighting and arcade ports.
Just like how a BIGGER house would benefit a LARGER family.
Sega may have had some really bad marketing/sales problems in the US, but Sony had all of the marketshare and sales advantages they could ever want; and did NOT try to improve on it even further with just one simple hardware upgrade/fix. 👎
This isn't even a comparison, the Saturn version was basically the arcade machine in your house, the PSX version was just a sad, broken shell of the game.
Also I forgot how utterly atrocious Capcom of America's cover art was at the time. Their entire marketing dept should have been fired.
Juggernaut is a static image on the PS1. lol.
I feel sorry for those who only played this game on the PS1. They got ripped off. I had a friend that didn't even know that you could switch between characters in a match. 😔
Yeah. I had both versions and basically "demo'd" them to people on the same display setup way back then. We had a lively arcade scene where I lived at the time, so it was easy. The Saturn version I imported was never localized, but I had a good percentage of people "enlightened" just by playing both (without even saying a word).
Pirated PS games were popular back then.
@@mich722
And this was one of the ones worth pirating because it wasn't worth the asking price how incomplete it was.
@@mich722That was pretty much what SAVED the system from going under...
The colors, the fonts, the size of the sprites, and the background details are almost exactly the same but the PSX version has SO MANY frames of animation cut out from it that it's not even funny...
This game was way better on the Saturn than the PSX. They took out the tag feature on the PSX and I feel as if that's what made it bad on it, that and the Saturn had a faster loading time.
Not only that, but the Saturn gamepad was way hella better, much more accurate, and alot more comfortable for playing any sort of fighting games on compared to the standard default PS1 controller... Just try doing half-circle or 360 motions on the PS1 controller's D-pad; it'll blister your thumbs rather painfully!
3:00 look at SEGA Saturns version Magneto hands and cape, the animation is beautiful and the PS version lacks of that animation, look at the background as well
Good grief! It's almost painful to see the amount of frames lost in the psx version and the load times!
And yet, the crapshit PSX version still outsold the Saturn version... Talk about BIASED!!!
The Saturn version was far superior than the PS1. You can't tag in and out on PS1 either, that pissed me the F off back in the day.
I love this game brings back a lot of memories in the arcades😀by the way the Saturn's version is best
I think when it comes to 2d animation fighting games like street fighter alpha, marvel, samurai showdown, Sega saturn is the best.

A versão Saturn é infinitamente superior, possui um número muito maior de frames dos personagens e estágios e ainda nem contou a possibilidade de troca de personagens durante as lutas.
Had a mega drive and then a SNES. Went straight to a PS1 thereafter but the Saturn wins this comp. Probably a very underrated machine.
Saturn has much better animations!
¿Was possible for sega saturn support 4 different characters at the same time?
Most likely it did, without any major problems... If it didn't, then most people would've pointed out any flaws by now.
The Saturn, if I recall, ran the game on a 4 MB RAM cart allowing for more animations and reduced load times. In addition, it could better handle running 2D games considering the tag team feature for XMvSF was intact for Saturn, while it was nixed on PS1 due to memory limitations. So for this comparison, Saturn easily prevails.
The Saturn port relied entirely on expansion memory and extra RAM, as well as the Sprite Drawing capabilities that PSX simply didn't have.
Also Saturn was capable of Z Buffering. PSX is not.
Saturn even bested PS1 at 3D, as well.

saturn version is clearly superior. the ONLY thing the psx could possibly be argued favorably for that is the health bars and character icons are less obtrusive. it’s actually shocking how much animation is dropped from the psx, including entire animations/sprites.
Hey sega saturn loads faster than playstation.

@@kekeke8988 The PS1 port of SFA3 was virtually thankfully ignored. Because the Dreamcast port was already out by then.
@@kekeke8988 The PS1 simply didn't have enough processor power or RAM to handle all of the animations nor the tag feature...

The PlayStation version had to tell you what the game was at the loading screen because it was so horrid

Lembro que meu Saturn era americano e o CD que eu tinha era japonês. Ou era o cartucho de 4MB ou o de destravamento de região. O jogo ficou meses pegando poeira...até que um amigo teve a idéia de inserir primeiro o cartucho de região e no timing certo, trocar pelo cartucho de RAM. Funcionou de primeira e foi só alegria. Depois disso, fiquei muito tempo sem ir ao fliperama. Jogaço. Pena que só vi SF Zero 3 através de emulação.
Saludos, en este juego se entendía el recorte de las animaciones pero no entendí para que cambiar el anunciador aun con el truco en PlayStation para jugar de dos vs dos, en ese tiempo cualquiera babeaba por jugar en su casita aunque sea de esa forma, otra cosa que me gusto de algunos juegos de capcon es que cuando escogías a los mismos personajes para los dos jugadores aumentaban las animaciones y disminuían los tiempos de carga.
If Capcom would have brought over the 4mb cart overseas and made most of their fighting games exclusive to the Saturn, i'd bet the Saturn would have been more successful

Any 2d fighter that was on both systems was far better on the Sega Saturn.
James Turner Sadly it seems only Capcom really took best advantage of the system and SoA was completely retarded.
Saturn was the better system but Sony had better marketing.
The *Sega Saturn* looks arcade-like, unlike the PlayStation version.
They should've just named that sad excuse of system the UNPLAYSTATION!!! 👎
I had no idea the psx versions were missing so many animation frames... This is just like SF2 Arcade vs Snes versions...
Let's not forget that the SNES SF2 also had smaller sprites, down-sampled sound effects, and different ending sequences...
Let’s also not forget that SNES SF2 was the VERY first port of its time on a 2MB cartridge, and despite the changes that needed to be made it was the most accurate arcade port of the time. You didn’t lose a core part of the game with that version. Nor did you with either SF2T or SSF2.
saturn uses full 2d graphics and the conversion is very faithful to the arcade. In the other hand the ps1 looks good but uses fake 2d graphics (because doesn't have the hardware to do something) and has more loading times so in this round saturn wins
Look at Castlevania SotN or Raiden II completely destroys the Saturn in 2D, Developers didnt bother they just ported their bad optimized arcade games to consoles
edek correct
He's right about Castlevania, it's a much better port than the Saturn version. Saturn was more powerful for 2D but it was also harder to develop for. If the dev didn't make the most of both visual processors then both 3D and 2D suffered, and a lot of developers did not utilise the full power of the console, which is why some PS ports were quite a bit better.
Yep, Sega needed to give devs their internal dev kits in 1994 rather than being greedy.
If a Saturn has a bad 2D game port, that's the dev's fault for being incompetent.
Oh and this is devastating how much better the Saturn did 2D.
Sega Does what Sony Don't
