So is the PS3 the modern dreamcast?

Steroid - Last I checked, one of the PS360 consoles has made about a billion dollars in the past year, and the other has lost a billion :-p

Wouldn't the XBOX be the Saturn then?

Didn't they lose like five billion on that?  And it was technically advaced too.

>_>

 

 Yeah...except sega didn't have that kind of money to lose.

In years in which sega did the Saturn's R&D and sold it to the public...Segas financial statements looked like this.

1993 - 230 million profit
1994 - 165 million profit
1995 - 110 million profit
1996 - 46 million profit
1997 - 360 million loss

1998 - discontinue Saturn

Both Sony and MS would be considered morons of gaming if they didn't have money to burn. Sega didn't have that luxury. Had sega made the PS3 and released it with so many mistakes as Sony did, they would have already stopped its production.
