Retro dad and modern lad presents EGWORD English Translation Digital Camera Set Up for the Sega Saturn. The Egword English translation patch is out now !!!!

This video goes through the set up process for connecting a digital camera to the sega saturn using the printer interface. This allows for pictures to be viewed on your tv, sent to the sega saturn, saved, printed, and used in documents.

What is EGWORD for sega saturn:

EGWORD is basically a word processor software CD that can be used to create, save, edit, and print documents. It was released as a Japanese exclusive and was bundled with a printer (Canon BJC-210J) and/ or printer interface cable. Some bundles also came with the Sega Saturn keyboard.

The Version of EGWORD used for the English translation is Egword version 2, which was the last version released for the Sega Saturn. There was also version 1 and version 1.2 released for the sega saturn. The Egword version 2 bundle included an upgraded printer interface, which allowed photos to be uploaded from a digital camera. These pictures could then be edited, added to documents, saved, and printed.

As well as being able to upload your own pictures from a digital camera there is also 566 images available to use that are stored on the egword software. These consist mainly of clip art images, but there are also images of Sega characters from games such as virtua fighter kids, fighting vipers, nights, and sonic to choose from. When sending pictures to the sega saturn using the printer interface there are 167 frames you can add to your pictures.

Egword is compatible with the Sega Saturn floppy disc drive (FDD) for saving. I can confirm that people who own the" Saturn Gamer's Cartridge" from developer Cafe Alpha can also use it to save directly to the SD card. This is because the saturn gamer's cartridge is able to act as the FDD for saves.

The English translation of egword translates all the menus and options in the software. The software was previously entirely in Japanese. It will also adds 12 new Sega Saturn related images that can be added to documents. The English translation patch is available now!!!
