Here’s A Novel Idea: Why Can’t Sega Make Its Own Flashback System?

The AtGames models of the Sega Genesis all-in-one systems haven't been faring that well. So why can't Sega step up? WWG has a good idea...

Better question would be why can't Sega just release another Genesis collection on modern consoles?

I really enjoyed Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection on PS3. It'd be great to have another compilation on PS4, especially since it would continue the tradition that started on PS2 & PSP.

No brother better question is why doesn't Sega release a Dreamcast 2 let the Sega faithful vote with their wallets and let the chips fall where they will. There's no way it won't be better than that new Nintendo switch that's for damn sure

@ Phoenix

They haven't been super successful since they left the hardware business. Now seems to be a good time to re-enter Hardware if they wanted to the Xbox is not as strong as they used to be and the Nintendo switch is some hybrid bastardize system I think the Dreamcast 2 would have a good chance at success as long as it had a good online architecture and at least PS4 style graphics

I'm sorry but Phoenix Up and FallenAngel1984 are both right.

Most of us WANT Sega to make hardware again sure. But we can't let what we want cloud reality. And the reality is Sega doesn't have the power (financial strength) to compete in the hardware game anymore. That's why they left in the first place. The Genesis and Dreamcast were both profitable sure.

However, The Sega Master system, Sega Game Gear, Sega 32X, Sega CD, and Sega Saturn were not profitable systems. Sega had enormous back debt as a result. The Dreamcast profits weren't able to offset all that.

What Sega needs to do is make their software high quality and competitive. If they can do that long term, then in a few years maybe (GIGANTIC MAYBE) they should make hardware again, assuming companies are even doing that anymore by then.

@ Ares

Because that'd be a dumb idea. They're far more successful as a third party publisher. There's no reason to jeopardize anything by going back to being a hardware manufacturer

FallenAngel19843234d ago

There's no reason for Sega to enter a market they had to leave for a reason.

Now would be a horrible time to enter now that gaming is a lot costlier investment and Sega has no reason to take such a pointless gamble

Tzuno3234d ago (Edited 3234d ago )

Why we can't see a major difference in graphics like ps2>ps3>ps4 jumps that really impressed, Sega should come back strong with new Console and new tech inside, not old AMD.

Fist4achin3234d ago

Maybe if Sega tested the waters with another handheld mobile console?! Nintendo seems to be doing strong with their consoles which are mobile...

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing39d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit39d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing39d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9239d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
