The Saturn launched in Japan on the 22nd of November, 1994 at a price of \u00a544,800, alongside five titles \u2014 Sega&#8217;s Virtua Fighter (packed-in with the system), Sega\/Micronet&#8217;s WanChai Connection, Electronic Arts Victor&#8217;s Mahjong Goku Tenjiku, Sunsoft&#8217;s port of Myst, and Time Warner Interactive&#8217;s Tama. It was a launch closely watched by other territories to ensure a Western release was handled as well as possible. It is thought that roughly 500,000 consoles were ready to be sold on launch day, but Sega specifically held back on 300,000 in storage for a week, in an attempt to catch a fledgling PlayStation off guard. Sony shipped around 100,000 consoles to Japanese retailers for its launch on December the 3rd &#8211; Sega sold at least 170,000 Saturns in its first day of sale &#8211; its most successful console launch of all time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like this video and subscribes to the channel. others link down below: <a href=\"https:\/\/linktr.ee\/agcave\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/linktr.ee\/agcave<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tubebuddy Affiliate: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tubebuddy.com\/agcretrogaming\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.tubebuddy.com\/agcretrogaming<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases from links posted in my description &amp; comments section.
