Dr.Agon:

1. You can install a switch and have 100% compatibility with all JP and US games.

2. You can install a mod chip with will allow you to play backups/copies of games which are specific to the region of your machine. These backups can be patched to ANY region.  The patch software is VERY easy to use and has 100% conversion rate (as far as I know and have been able to tell based on the copies I've made with it).

3. Buy a JP Saturn and be done with it.

So you do have options. #1 will let you play legit copies of any NTSC game on one console. #2 will let you play backups/copies of any game from any region (but will only play original games from the region of the machine). #3 is pretty much the same as number one in terms of what you'll be able to play.
