Saturn

The Sega Saturn is a fifth generation video game console, that was originally released on Nov 22nd, 1994. The console was built using a 32-bit hardware architecture, with the initial intent to excel at rendering two dimensional sprites however this was changed to favor rendering of three-dimensional polygons due to the potential for steep competition from the Sony Playstation and Nintendo 64.

The system would initially launch on November 22, 1994 in Japan. The US launch of the console was announced live at the first E3 press conference on May 11, 1995, where the console was announced to be available the very same day. The announcement was met with widespread controversy angering many developers in development of Saturn titles and several major retailers some of who would ultimately forgo stocking the console in their stores.
