   Oh, that's right...I completely forgot about that. I'm not much in to   
   the few titles it had on it, so I never paid much attention to it when   
   it came out. I do, now, remember WD doing the conversion though.

   I was never real big on the Saturn's analog pad...it just seemed   
   to...loose, I guess is the word I'd use. It was nice for Nights though.

   Sounds interesting, and I'm a big fan of virtually anything with a   
   overly rendered look, so I'll have to take a look sooner than later.   
   Thanks for the info!
