CD Warning

If you play either disc on a CD player other than a Sega Saturn, a warning featuring the voice of Sakura Shinguji will play.

Sakura: "Ah! You just tried to play this CD in a music player, didn't you? You can't! This is a Sega Saturn software CD-ROM. If you keep playing it like this, bad things will happen, like 'BEEEEP clunk clunk clunk'! Nobody's going to take responsibility if your CD player breaks, so stop playing this disc any further, please!"
