It was a lose-lose situation for Sega, really. If they went with Microsoft, they lost their independence and risked being reduced to nothingness during one of the many corporate downsizings that had destroyed almost a hundred MS-absorbed companies before that. If they resisted, they had to compete with Microsoft on top of Sony (who was already crushing them). It's fine and dandy to pretend that things would have been better if Sega joined Microsoft, but it's unlikely that either company would have benefited much at all from it.
