Saturn version of TT

Post by cornelius »

Hello everyone,

I've just started playing Transport Tycoon again after many years and I'm very impressed with the way the game has been tinkered with and improved since I last saw it!

I went to Japan a couple of years ago and, completely by chance, managed to find a second hand copy of Transport Tycoon for the Sega Saturn. Until then I hadn't realised it even existed, although I knew there was a PlayStation conversion. Unfortunately I don't have the ability to actually play it, but from the packaging it looks like it's isometric rather than 3D and probably based on the original game rather than Deluxe. I think it cost me about £3!

Well, a 3D version of TT is a completely new experience, even when it's TTO...

I found the saturn version on ebay a year ago, i must have the saved html and pics somewhere. The 3d graphics are probably the same as the psx version.

Here's a photo of the stuff in the package and close up of one of the box screenshots - it looks a lot more detailed than that Playstation image.

Well the second screenshot is developed city later in game in the 2d view
I think.
But I wonder...

The 2d <> 3d toggle button is at the psx in the line below the sheet music and the memory card.

So it lacks one line of buttons here.
Maybe it does not even have the 3d view?

The better pics say nothing at all, the intro video is also much better...

Excelent i never knew there was versions of TT for other consoles. its all part of the TT legacy and in my eyes proves just how popular it really was/is, that developers took time to produce it for other formats.
