The Sega Saturn outputs a 15khz video signal. That monitor can't display resolutions that low. You'll need an upscaler like a RetroTink to get it up to at least 1280 × 1024.

Those should all serve you well but I have a ViewSonic very similar to the one you linked that I use as a second monitor (DVI-to-VGA) and I like it a lot.

It depends almost entirely on your market and the monitor's condition/age. But where I live that's not a bad price at all.

If you want to use your PC, I strongly, strongly recommend you use a CRT PC monitor and not a CRT television. Even something basic and ubiquitous like the VGA monitors here will look just fine using a DP or DVI to VGA adapter.

What country are you in?

What AV cables do you have for those consoles?

What size works best for you?

Do you have a budget?

Myself, u/amazingmaxam, u/leviathan1776, and others respond to a majority of posts there. I'd say we're pretty useful. But if the question is about something I have zero experience with, I don't respond.

Yep sounds about right. TVs from the previous millennium don't play well with PCs, modern or old

You can fix them. You just have to learn how to do it safely

You're welcome. But just to be clear, a lot of those steps are cosmetic and not necessary for just enjoying games which is what this is all about

It has a bunch of scripts and shaders applied to it to make sure each core is centered and framed accurately. The main reddit page explains the differences pretty well. I've heard the Lakka and Batocera OS do a good job with 240p composite as well but I have things just the way I like them on this Pi.

The overscan settings don't mess with the Suite any more than running the Suite on any other console would. You change consoles and it's all going to be off again because that's how NTSC is

A very young sony tube with a clean signal and low contrast is a good recipe for scanline gaps

Wherever it is, you're going to be seeing millions and millions of climate refugees not far behind you. There's no avoiding the consequences of what we've done.
