 Sega Saturn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Unfortunately, many of the games that made the Saturn so popular in Japan such as the Sakura Taisen series or many of the quirky anime style RPGs that sold well in Japan were never released in the US.
Because of this, many Saturn games needed to be written in assembly language to achieve decent performance on the hardware.
NiGHTS Into Dreams, a score attack game released in 1996 by Sonic Team, is one of the Saturn's most popular titles; considered by many to be groundbreaking in its use of 2.5D gameplay and to be one of the greatest video games ever.

 Sega - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sega was attempting to "lock out" game companies from making Genesis games unless they paid Sega a fee (ostensibly to maintain a consistent level of quality of games for their system.) Their strategy was to make the hardware reject any cartridge that did not include a Sega trademark.
In North America the Saturn was a failure partly due to its initial high $400 price tag, (compared to $300 for the PSX and $200 for the N64), its programming difficulties, and perhaps because of the poor support for previous Sega Genesis add-ons, the Sega 32X and the Sega CD.
On September 12, 2005, It was announced that Sega would be working with Petroglyph to create a Modern Military/Sci-fi Real-time strategy game for PC[1].

But Sega still needs a flagship game for it, so they launch it with a VF3 game that can sell some systems, but they have to do it soon as VF3 hype will start to fade by the end of the year.
Sega publicly even announced that this was a major mistake when dealing with game marketing.
Furthermore, Ed from Hardcore Saturn Gaming, uhhh excuse me, Harcore Video Gaming, has touched up on the subject of Sega holding their cards close to the vest unless they want to give their rivals too much preparation time to catch up with ploys of their own.

The basic theory is simple: There are jumpers on the Saturn mainboard which tell the OS what country it is running in.

 Sega Saturn Console Information
Sega's Virtua Fighter arcade game had become very popular and gamers hoped that Sega would have 3D capabilities in their new console so that Virtua Fighter could be ported for play on it.
Some developers rushed out their games, which left the Saturn with a bad reputation (note how many games were re-released in the full version later down the track).
While it is considered a 3D console, it was also made to support 2D games (like you would see on 8-bit and 16-bit consoles) and the 2D games released show Saturn's excellent sprite-handling abilities.
