sega is mega

Genesis = based
Saturn = cringe
Dreamcast = based
simple as

>>10433417
Yes EOPs do think that

>>10433395
What are some Sega "Hidden Gems"? I already know about Ecco, Sonic and Virtua Fighter

>>10433417
they're all good, blue hedgehog slop isnt a determiner of a console's quality.

Sega is at this moment fucking up just as spectacularly as they did in the dreamcast era with CA and Hyenas

Sega made a good system once, the genesis. All my favourite non-pinball arcade games were made by sega

Your post? DISCARDED

>>10434040
thats because they let sega europe go unchecked for too long, they literally cancelled it because it was retarded and they realized it would be a massive flop and bankrupt the company.

>game is called cringe
Anyway, isn't that basically a Nomad but for airliners?

>>10433395
What games moved this console?

>>10434246
uhhhhhhhhh

>>10433395
I really like the Saturn. I am sad the Dreamcast died early. The Xbox being its reincarnation was kinda nice in hindsight but dudebros from the era were insufferable.

>>10434278
Can you explain that to me a bit? I always felt like the Gamecube looked and felt nore like a Dreamcast 2 but everhone says its the Xbox, just never got how

>>10434246
Timeless classics such as Girl's Garden, Yuji Naka's first game at Sega

It's easy to model the PS2, the Gamecube, and the Xbox as Dreamcast successors in different ways. The Gamecube could be seen as absorbing Sega's stuff from the exit to the console war with a proper expanded port and sequel to Phantasy Star Online. The PS2 got Shinobi. The Xbox got the weird Sega games like Panzer Dragoon Orta, Gunvalkyrie, and Jet Set Radio Future. The PS2 and Gamecube "can't" be successors to the Dreamcast because they're successors to the PS1 and N64. The Xbox picks up where the Dreamcast left off by having those odd Sega games, an integrated network connection, and even a controller with six main face buttons like the Saturn. There's also that "Made for Windows CE" bit on the Dreamcast which might as well have foreshadowed the Xbox.

Not that Anon but TL;DR because it has stuff like Crazy Taxi 3, House of the Dead 3, Jet Set Radio Future, Outrun 2, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Sega GT 2002, Shenmue 2
Basically the GC has SA2 but the Xbox has Sega games that feel more Saturn and Dreamcast core

Sonic CD is hands down one of the worst 2D paltformers ever made. There is nothing intelligent about its design and its an exercise in frustration and futility until you play it so many times that you memorize its horrible level layouts and develop stockholm syndrome for investing so much time into it

Bimini run is a really, really fun game

>>10433753
Streets of rage, toe jam and earl, splatterhouse, phantasy star, Herzog swei, etc etc. I think the genesis has the best library of games but Nintendo, having less good games, just had the highest quality games available at the time.

OP posted a Sega -SG 1000 yet no body has even talked about playing one ITT. Back in 2017 I sat around and played most of the games for this thing. Definitely better than playing an Atari 2600, that's for sure.

Not many. PS2 has far more.

>>10433753
Puggsy. Character design is kinda ugly but the game is rock solid, great soundtrack too.

A few others that come to mind are Beyond Oasis, Mega Turrican, and Bonaza Bros.

Sega doesn't give a shit about it's old franchises and refuses ro rerelease shit outside of overpriced mini consoles

A lot of Sega fans moved on to Xbox because for many reasons, one was resentment towards Sony and Nintendo but also that they had no other console to go for after Sega exited the hardware business. Another one was the OG Xbox being similar to the Genesis days of Sega in a lot of ways (the ads for example were equally glorious, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu_0GdXW904).). There was also Sega supporting the Xbox probably the most heavily out of all the consoles even having Shenmue 2 not released in the US for Dreamcast in favor of an Xbox port. It also had built in online like the Dreamcast, and the DC hardware was also "close to PC to make ports easy" like the Xbox. Basically the Xbox was a DC spiritual successor in so many ways.
There were also rumours that Sega was in talks with Microsoft about making the Xbox compatible with the DC but it would've raised the console cost too much (MS was reportedly already losing $100 per each console sold, so adding more to that was too much).

Gamecube only really had Sonic Team support, and the PS2 mostly only got DC ports, RPGs and Virtua Fighter 4. Xbox had a shitload of original Sega games, chief among them Panzer Dragoon Orta which also had a custom xbox model made for it.

The most incompetent company I've ever seen.
I still love their games and consoles both retro and not

>>10433395
I like Sega because Kibe likes Sega.
Their commercials were top-notch, Segata Sanshiro being not only a great idea, awesome pun but also a moral role model who advises children to put off playing Sega Saturn after the exam period. His theme song is catchy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wb7sN7axblc))
Sensing it's decline and fall Sega's Dreamcast ads (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_65I-AyktreHYi8Gf5OGZM_Y8z5V2-g7)) acknowledged failure and accepted it.

sega more like gayga

Master System = BEST

Guess we can't have a Sega thread without mentioning Bernie.

>>10433395
They have the best looking consoles, especially the Sega Genesis and Sega Dreamcast!

>>10441274

Model 1 or model 2? I personally love the 2nd one, looks more sleek.

Sega was founded by 3 Jewish-American businessmen in Hawaii
