Lunar Silver Star Story first debuted on the Sega CD.  While the Sega CD system didn't last very long, Lunar did manage to get quite a following.  Unfortunately, because the Sega CD user base wasn't large, Lunar was overlooked by several gamers.  The game had a release on the very short lived Sega Saturn, but again, never reached audiences.  In 1999 Lunar finally reached a large audience.  The Playstation.  With several changes and updates from the original Sega CD version to make the story more complete and satisfying.
