GiriGiri 6/28/04 Build out!

[barnito]

What could possibly be better then the GiriGiri emulator for running Saturn games? How about a Windows XP optimized version that is smaller, faster and resource optimized. It has a partially rewritten core, updated code, improved sound, new tools, and updated documentation. Further, it now comes with its own installer and all the files needed to run it.
All you have to do is supply the game.

Dear Mr. Zumwalt,

Thank you for e-mailing Sega Technical Support.
Please feel free to send a addressing your specific concerns to our
corporate office using the following information:

Sega of America, Inc.
Attention: Legal Department
650 Townsend Street, Suite 650
San Francisco, CA 94103-4908

At this , Sega no longer recognizes the GiriGiri emulator.
The GiriGiri team author Shinya Miyamoto is the original Copyright holder of 2001.
After he left the project and Sega took over, the emulator was short lived.
Sega took over the copyrights up to 2003 and never renewed them after the
theft of the unlock code to the commercial release and the project was canned.

Sega does not have any future plans for GiriGiri at this ,
and as you point out, the recent take over of Sega, will not likely even
consider emulation, as Sammy will be focusing on arcade systems.

Sega has never supported outside development, and never likely will.
All Sega systems and Games remain protected.

Sincerely,

-Sandi
Sega of America Technical Support

EmailContent: I am an emulator developer.

I am interested in the conditions of the legal rights (if any) of your now
ceased GiriGiri program.
Between it being a dropped commercial product, and Sammy taking over, and a complete lack of any reference on any of Sega's sites... well, you get where I'm going.
If rights are no longer being claimed, can you tell me of any further
resources that could help in the programs development?
If rights are to be held, can you please send me the full details.

Thank you.

Hmmm... I've never owned (or played) on a Sega Saturn.  What were some of the classics?  (or good games for use in an arcade)
