My favourite was the "This is Cool" Saturn, I still have it and the JVC Saturn which has a different boot up.
I have a few different Saturns still.

Saturn sold just five million didn't it? You might have been its main customer Rik.

I think I've got nine but I'm sure it sold over 7 million just in Japan, it did ok there. Could never get a Hi Saturn Navi though which is the one I wanted most.

Apparently the saturn only sold around 10 million units. Europe and USA must have hated it.

Actually it was initially popular, I believe. Sold a lot of units early.
Quickly ran into a problem of support, though. Sony had the advantage of a clean record with only one console to support & had some amazing western devs onboard. SEGA were coming off the back of the MegaCD & 32X which kind of confused their market offerings.

Panasonic Q by far. Most console special editions are just tacky and seem to age worse than the original design. I also liked the Q because it added a feature that should have been there to start on the Gamecube, a DVD player!

I think the Samsung Saturn was Korean only? Never got that one. I have both versions of the JVC Saturn and the Hitachi one though.

It sort of came up when I moved all her clothes into one cupboard so I could store my Jaguar, Snes & N64 games in the built in wardrobes

It looks horrible, but it makes cool noises.
