Is there no news in the future about a new Sega console? Or are they just going to produce games...

Sega is Nintendo's bitch now.

Nobody buys Sega consoles anyway.

Actually, Sega develops for all the systems, but they nolonger make their own. They realized that it was nolonger possible for them to compete in the current market. The dreamcast was too much of a failure for them to keep up to todays standards.

Yes, after Dreamcast they decided to only make games and not systems..

And you had about 30 secs to change batteries before the data deleted.

Ugh...

I had a Genesis (which was cool, of course), to which I added the Sega CD (which was also cool)...

Then, I bought the 32x at the full $250 retail price...

Then, they stopped producing games for the 32x, dropped support for it, and lowered the price to like $50...

I hate them...lol

Sega was bought out by another company and is now part of Sega-Sammy Holdings. I think that was the name of it. Anyway, this new bastardized company is only a game development company.

Poor Sega. Sega was always ahead of the curve in their prime, but with the odd flop of the Sega Saturn they were left crippled. The Sega Saturn was the system of that console generation that I wanted most, though I never did get one since I couldn't afford it at the time. I still want one though; I should look around on ebay.

Yeah, I also paid retail for the 32X....except mine didn't work! Haha. We could never figure out what was wrong with it. But eh, I didn't care much. I threw it back in the box and started playing Street Fighter some more. Haha.

I still have mine. =) Let's just say to today's standards, Sega Saturn is still very nice for it's time. If anyone remembers the game called "Night" then they know what I'm talking about. =)

Same here. I loved Nintendo and if I had to choose a side at that time I would have taken Nintendo, but appart from the Nintendo 64 I've never wanted a console at release more than the Sega Saturn. Like you though the price was just out of my league.

I eventually got one with Virtua Cop 2 (plus two guns), Street Fighter II DX Turbo Alpha (or some rediculous variation of that), a racing game (with wheel) and some other decent games. It was great and all but by that it was all so old that it couldn't really compete with the rest of my games (that and I'd put so much money into the arcade version that I could finish VirtuaCop 2 blindfolded).
