   Would somebody emulating the Saturn prove you wrong?   
      
   As for the Saturn library, I'd be interested to see what you have to say   
   about the comparison of PS1 and Saturn titles that I have in my   
   comparison section.

   This list shows the PS1 and Saturn library being very comparable while   
   the Saturn was still on the market (i.e. until 1998).  My impression of   
   the anti-Saturn crowd's opinion is that they make the mistake of   
   comparing the entire PS1 library against the Saturn's two and a half   
   years of releases.  Comparing apples to apples makes their assertions of   
   the Saturn library's insufficiencies moot.
