Saturn Game makers

Which game makers/publishers did the best job on Saturn?

To me Capcom did the best job, great arcade ports, fantastic gameplay in such games as the Megaman series and NO slowdowns! They really knew on how to push Saturn graphics/animations to the next level just check Street Fighter Zero 3 or the vs series.

Treasure did the most original well built games of the time, Guardian Heroes and Radiant Silvergun to name the best well known.

Psikyo were great as well fantastic shooters, great gameplay in all of them.

Konami did many great Saturn games, including the Parodius series. Their decision to "outsource" Dracula X was a little unfortunate, but hey...

me too

although wasn't Treasure (in it's Genny and Saturn days) published by Sega?

 Taelon Mar 4, 2003
No. Treasure is actually a bunch of guys that had formerly worked for Konami, then left and founded their own company. Konami should've never let 'em go, IMHO.

Konami is still pretty solid.

Treasure is little more extreme -- kinda kooky sometimes.

Konami is more mainstream, but does a good job doing it

Sega, Capcom, and Hudson own...

Sega for everything...lol. Panzer, Nights, burning rangers, list goes on and on

Capcom: Street fighter games, SUPER PUZZLE FIGHTER, any other great arcade game ported with 100% quality

Hudson: Bomberman.....10 player.......ownage.

Question, what does anyone think about Time Warner Interactive? Granted, I'm not even sure whether they had their own game developers or were just publishers, but they did bring out the somewhat disappointing Virtua Racing on one hand, and the awesome Psychic Killer Taromaru on the other (only in Japan, oddly enough).

Nahhh.

Them games are too different in quality. Time Warner must've been a publisher only, after all.

 Neo-Tokyo Mar 10, 2003
Humm never heard of them making games, they were only publishers though

But hey i might be wrong <_<
