We should go back to Nintendo versus Sega times, give me my Dreamcast 2 and my Virtual Boy Advance
I don’t want to go back to sega fucking up the hardware game that bad…
I think in this business you can survive a generation in the wilderness. Nintendo had it with the Wii U. Arguably Sony had one with the PS3.
Two in a row? Well you're out. Saturn followed by Dreamcast. MS are in their second, and tbh, it looks like they're pivoting towards being a cross platform publisher and subscription provider. They can certainly afford to keep throwing money at the issue, but if there's no results, there's only so long they'll be allowed to continue doing that before the boss pulls the rug on it. He does not seem like a man who is excited by his gaming division.
