Play your Sega Saturn game collection anywhere with Yaba Sanshiro 2.
Yaba Sanshiro 2 brings Sega Saturn games to Android with high-resolution graphics, fast and lightweight emulation, expanded backup memory, and cloud save support.
Rediscover your favorite games with improved visuals and the freedom to keep, back up, and transfer your save data across your devices.
KEY FEATURES
• High-resolution graphics
Render 3D polygons at resolutions higher than the original Sega Saturn hardware using OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan.
• Fast and lightweight
Optimized for smooth, responsive gameplay on a wide range of Android smartphones, tablets, handheld gaming devices, and Android TV devices.

• Cloud backup
Back up your game saves to your private cloud storage.
• Transfer saves across platforms
Back up, restore, and share your save data between Android, Windows, and iOS devices, so you can continue playing on any supported platform.
• Save states
Save your progress at any moment and continue later from the same point.
• Game controller support
Play using compatible Bluetooth and USB game controllers.

IMPORTANT STORAGE INFORMATION
On Android 10 or later, Yaba Sanshiro 2 uses Android’s Storage Access Framework to access game files.
Game files can be selected from the “Load Game” menu, so they do not need to be stored in a specific folder.
Save data and save states stored only inside the app may be removed when the app is uninstalled. We recommend using the cloud backup feature to protect important data.

The Sega Saturn has complex hardware, and some games may not yet work perfectly.
