Would be nice if they managed a comeback in the hardware realm, I HATED seeing them leave :(

 

Id love to have them be a software powerhouse again. I am not sure if I want them making hardware...I mean, hardware really doesn't matter to me anymore. When I think about it, Sega isn't really doing that badly these days.

I mean lets look at Segas competitors from back in the day (omiting nintendo for obvious reasons)

Atari - gone

Midway - life support

Acclaim - chapter 11

Capcom - alive and well

NEC - doing good but gone from gaming

Amiga - gone

3DO - went tits up in 2003 after trying software only

SNK - went out of busines, and now is back thanks to playmore

Namco - alive and well

 

The 2000s weren't kind to the former kings of Arcades and home consoles.

Sega is doing ok for itself, they best they can in this "loss for profit" gaming environment. I hope they are survive for a bit as I see them becoming a powerful software company once the tide calms down.
