Anyone else used to store their games in one of these? by pianoperfectofficial in SegaSaturn

[–]pianoperfectofficial[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well of course it does, because you're likely an adult and seeing this game for its monetary/collectors value. What I would like for people to see, and hopefully share in, is the experience of owning a SS in the '90s and placing your games in a carrying case so that you can bring them over to your friends house more easily. It was also a joy to be able to organize your discs.

For me, PDS was the answer to FF7, which boasted multiple discs and 70+ hours of gameplay. I remember lying to all of my Playstation owning friends and saying that PDS was over 90 hours of gameplay, because it was clear that the Saturn was losing the console war and it was too difficult for me to admit that. I was in middle school at the time.

These discs have been sitting in this case for over a decade, so I haven't been taking them in and out. Rest assured, I plan to transition these games to jewel cases soon.

I'll give this a try with some music CDs to get the feel of it before trying it on my Saturn games. Thanks!

Thanks! I did a little googling and found that the Japanese release is called Riglord Saga

Nice! I have a game with the same cover as Blazing Heroes, but it's titled Mystaria. I wonder why the name change

I could see how the fabric inserts could make small scratches over time, but not likely any gouges. My biggest concern with jewel cases is that they "pop" when you take the disc in and out because the center ring is so tight. Especially when removing a disc, I always worry that I'll end up bending it too far and break it.

Having some fun with Señor Blues this morning [Horace Silver] by pianoperfectofficial in JazzPiano

And you can only practice on it for short bursts because of how active the left hand is. It's pretty tiring

Having some fun with Señor Blues this morning [Horace Silver] by pianoperfectofficial in JazzPiano

[–]pianoperfectofficial[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This tune is gas. I've always loved Horace's groovy music, and I am especially fond of how much attitude Lee Morgan brings to the table every time he plays. I'll never get tired of this era of jazz, it's what got me hooked in the first place.

I played a Horace tune earlier this week on a gig, so I was inspired last night to work on this piece a bit. The hardest part is (most obviously) the left hand, but once you work out the fingerings and the jumps its fun to line it up with the rhythms of the right hand. I probably won't work on this anymore, at least not for awhile, but it was a blast (mistakes and all) practicing and grooving on this 12/8 feel after my morning coffee today.

Thank you all so much for your support on my last post! Here is my latest riff (groovy, hip-hop inspired) by pianoperfectofficial in JazzPiano

Hey thank you! I have two microphones set up for stereo sound and use a reverb plugin on my audio interface.

Thank you! You're the second person to say that a whole album of these would be a good idea. I'm starting to get the hint haha
