Yet another PlayStation game that they said couldn't be done at all on the Saturn and yet here it is. The original PlayStation version was by Tamsoft / Takara while this Saturn version was reprogrammed by Nextech.

The Saturn version does away with the 3D backgrounds and replaces them with scaling 2D ones like Virtua Fighter 2, Last Bronx and so on. The overall look of the Saturn version has a lower resolution than the PlayStation version but it still looks quite nice. The Saturn version of Toshinden also features many extras not found in the PlayStation game such as an FMV intro, 2 secret characters, 2 new stages and more music tracks.

In the end though, it still plays like you're under water just like the PlayStation version. It maybe best not to bother with this one I'd say. Get Toshinden URA instead.  A Toshinden game made with the Saturn in mind.
