ok my bad. legend in town was that inside coin ops there was saturn hw. but who knows... this is maybe true for me, and not for you.
OK, I had to look this up, VF1 was model 1, like Virtua Racing, but the did ship a backport of Remix that did run on ST-V. More likely you remember people being excited about the idea that Saturn would just be arcade hardware at home and we'd get arcade perfect ports of Daytona and VF, which was extremely not the case.
I mostly remember the arcade being pin-sharp, which it was, but once you got the upgraded textures nobody was complaining. And we got both at once in VF2, so...
no, we were excited we could have arcade 3d at home. but it's 25 years ago, or some such... honestly I care more about "sweet memories" than historical correctness. nonetheless your memory, and will to share it, is more than appreciable, in fact I thank you for sharing.
