Hitachi Hi-Saturn Portable Version

The Hitachi MMP-1000NV Saturn model is the Saturn fanatic's dream machine. The unit can be used in the home and connected to your television like a regular Saturn or taken with you in a car for play on those long trips in the back seat. Imagine getting through a round of Fighting Vipers as scenery of woody outdoors or as masses of New Yorkers pass you by. Why look out the window when you can look at a Saturn video game? When going on a trip, the Hitachi Saturn can be outfitted with an active matrix LCD screen for bright colors and excellent resolution.

The Hitachi can also be used as a GPS tracker for your car trips. Software is included for the main provinces in Japan while more detailed territory discs can be purchased separately from Navisoft for the different areas such as Hokkaido or Chubu in Japan that you might be travelling to. Of course, this function is moot here in the States but since the Hitachi is portable and you might go to Japan one day, its a little something extra that you get when you purchase the Hi-Saturn.

The other parts of the Hi Saturn that are included are a video-CD decoder which will allow you to run MPEG-1 movies on the Saturn, a Photo-CD card which will let you view picture discs on your Saturn, a TV tuner so that you can watch some television if you get tired of playing your two games and a standard Saturn black controller, to match the color of the unit itself.
