Electronic Arts had been an important part of my Sega Genesis experience in the early 1990's. They would also play a strong role on the Sega Saturn, at least in the beginning.

Episode Notes:

1. If you plan on buying EA games for the Sega Saturn, be sure to also buy a Memory Cartridge as well. A single EA game game could swallow the entire Saturn internal save area alone.

2. EA is often forgotten on the Saturn because of so many sports games, but there are other games very much worth a look.

3. The vast majority of these games tend to be very cheap. Only the shoot'em ups command any real money.

4. All games captured on a Framemeister via RGB SCART.

5. EA was also responsible for a Shogi and Mahjong game for the Saturn. The Mahjong title was a Japanese launch game.

6. Music:
0:16 - Palm Desert Road Rash (Genesis)
1:35 - Madden Title Theme (Genesis)
1:48 - Madden 97 Theme
4:16 - Loaded On the Go
8:38 - NBA Live 98 Menu
10:35 - Road Rash 32-bit Track 2
13:34 - Viewpoint Neo Geo MVS
14:41 - Road Rash Redwood Forest (Genesis)

Ending theme is from Batman for the Sega Genesis. Opening 'SEGA' jingle is from Astal for the Sega Saturn.
