    Why dont Sega make consoles anymore this has been annoying me for a while I mean did Microsoft or Sony buy them over or something? I hear about them on Football Manager and Condemed because they helped create the game or did both will do.

    But I was thinking they should bring out a new console... There consoles were great...

    They made the dreamcast around 2000, but that was a massive flop. I think sega are shifting into publishing games now, instead of the consoles.

    But the sega mega drive was great

    Yeah, Sega gave up with consoles and have switched solely to making and publishing games on as many formats as possible. I never used to think I'd see the day Sonic was available on a Nintendo console. *tears up*

    it was bad planning on segas part with the dreamcast, they released it like a month before ps2 and p2 had been hiped up so much everyone wanted to save up for ps2. dc at the time beat the ps2 with its specs and at the time had the internet which ps2 didnt but like i said, bad time of release and as a result ps2 out sold it by far and they decided to scrap it
