    NDS is not capable of emulating the saturn.

    it is unlikely the 3ds will be capable of emulating the saturn either. The sega saturn had an extremely complex architecture utilising 9 different processing chips (three main CPUs, 2 sound processors, 3 graphics processors and a control unit). The complexity is partly why developers didn't develop for it.

    I will buy 3DS if it is able to run saturn emu, 3DS just been released so maybe it will have an updated version like NDS to NDS Lite to NDSi, etc.

    DS lite had exactly the same specs as the original DS, it was just in a smaller box.

    Another reason I hate Nintendo/game companies in general. Things like this. And DSi: Hey get this awesome new DS with enhanced graphics, a camera, and no GBA slot anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Even sega saturn emulators for PC suck, by the way.

    Nintendo probably have to be greedy to survive from other big companies, see how Sega now are near bankrupt?

    I think he means emulators you can run on the DS?

    Anything up to snes/genesis/gbc can be emulated by the NDS.

    Sega are doing OK actually, they're now a software/arcade machine company.

    Yea what I mean is all emu that can run on NDS, not on PC or other system.

    NDS are handy to bring around especially when I'm in a queue line.

    PSV could emulate it.

    Probably not, considering that most Saturn emulators suck and it's hard to actually get working 100% if at all. The Saturn's complicated, if the PC doesn't have a good one, the PSV won't either.

    If you want to play Saturn game, get a Saturn, that's about the best and only way to play them. I wish I could try a couple of the games though. :\

    Although, a short romp on ebay yields very cheap prices for the console itself if you feel that route, it's pretty easy to pirate games for it too.

    PSV is most likely handheld to be able to, yes, however, as natewlie said, it is still extremely unlikely.
