This allows you to play imports on your Saturn.
Includes cardboard box & cardboard box insert. Some wear on cardboard, but not bad at all.
I tested this to work with my Japanese All-Japan Pro Wrestling, Featuring Virtua game & it works fine.
Note that this will *not* let you play game copies on your Saturn.
Note that you cannot play all imports with the ST-Key. Some require extra memory too.
Asking $15 OBO + shipping. Will also consider trades. Here's an almost-current list of what I have. If you have an item not on my list, let's talk. http://infernolab.com/forsale/vids/Jason's%20Video%20Games.xls (http://infernolab.com/forsale/vids/Jason's%20Video%20Games.xls)
Thank you,

Ill take it if it plays US games.

It should do that fine. (I take it you've got a European PAL or Japanese system?).
A little quick research shows that it just seems to disable region protection for any console. Buy at your own risk.
Thanks,

Plug the ST-Key into the cartridge port of your Saturn console and unlock the world. The ST-Key allows the use of any NTSC or PAL Saturn game on any version of the console, which includes Europe, Japan, and the United States. Please note that the ST-Key does not have any additional functions or features and is only to be used as a territory converter. This thing is a one trick pony.
A little history
A couple of days after Sega released the Saturn in the United States, NCS set to work on deciphering the territory lock between the Japanese and USA models. It took about 30 minutes to inspect both pcboards and isolate the jumper settings that differentiated between a USA and a Japanese console. The alternative to the ST-Key is a switch modification from NCS, based on our original work back in the day. From that early beginning, NCS went on to decipher four additional Saturn pcboards and their jumper settings through the years that the Saturn was still in production.

Pfft, a switch modification from them? I can region mod a Saturn for all regions with a dip switch in 5 minutes, both mine are already like this. Others I know have modified their machines for a switchless solution that uses the power and reset buttons to set region.
This cart should work fine in any region Saturn codenamed, but as previously stated it will not work in conjunction with any add-on carts like RAM carts or Cheat carts.

Oh snap I though you were selling a saturn system not just the key never mind.
