Personally when I was growing up I prefered the lunar silver star story on the saturn to the PSX one even though the PSX version got an english translation by Atlas.

I've always been curious about this, since Saturn is oft-touted as an RPG powerhouse but the selection outside of Japan was pretty meager. I found this ancient site that seemed to be talking about the games while the Saturn was still active:

Like you said, a lot of traditional 2D stuff. A pretty good amount of 3D stuff too, though.. and a lot of the 2D games look kind of lazy.
And yet Sony was said to have had a grudge against developers who held on to 2D on the early days of the PSX.
