Saroo is a HD Loader (Flash Cart) for the Sega Saturn. While its been in development since 2013, over the past 2 years it's seen some significant updates and is now available to purchase. Due to the open-source nature of the device it's by far the cheapest Sega Saturn Flash Cart (roughly between $55-$100 on AliExpress) on the market today and it is also the fastest in terms of performance - with most games loading in mere seconds. The price and performance are indeed incredible, but the Saroo is not perfect. It has its issues - and how is the compatibility? We discuss all this and more in today's episode.
