DJ Wars

Relive the golden age of classic rhythm simulation on home console hardware with DJ Wars for the Sega Saturn! Originally developed by Exit and published by Spike on its historic Japanese launch date of December 18, 1997, this unique musical title brings a highly authentic turntablism experience right to your living room. Players assume the role of an aspiring rookie DJ striving to impress rival local bosses and ascend to the rank of DJ King. Step behind the virtual decks to manage song selection, adjust track pitch, cue upcoming records through headphones, and use the crossfader to smoothly execute cut-ins and long mixes that keep the club dance floor moving!

Gamer Fact: Rather than following the casual, color-coded button patterns of mainstream rhythm games from its era, this title functions much closer to a realistic training tool for aspiring real-world vinyl artists. The demanding mechanics prioritize strict beat-matching and meticulous audio manipulation, capturing a distinct subset of underground club subculture from late-90s Tokyo.

What’s Included:
Original DJ Wars NTSC-J Game Disc
