For 2D cute girl games, there's more for the Saturn.

Doesn't the Saturn have the option of having the player confess?

According to Oricon, 60% of software is PS, less than 20% Saturn,
5% N64, and 15% others (FX, Gameboy, PCE, SFC).
But this is the general population.. not "otaku" types.
For those who like anime, Saturn could be beating PS.
