I dont see why they wouldn't be able to release a console financially.
Sega is not sony, they dont spend billions on making CPUs. They would use off the shelf parts and could probably come out something that is as xbox360 powerful for under 200 bucks.
Now that Wii demonstarted that visuals and console power do not mean great sales, any company out there can make a console for sale.
Getting the support of the retail community however will be next to impossible for a company like sega. they could probably get their consoles in specific stores but Bestbuy and Circuit City would never pick them up for sale...
