    Is that transparency? Looks like the same dithering/alternating empty pixels that all Saturn ports are plagued with.

      Yea, that’s specifically not transparency. Megaman X 4 had actual transparencies, which you can see here with the glass tube, next to a spotlight using the dithering method.

      Oh, but it’s what passes for transparency on the Saturn. :)
