When SEGA left, i continued console & handheld gaming (yes, even on sony devices like the ps2 & psp).

There was no sudden urge to "go pc only" and i certainly never considered quitting gaming.

As for hurting sony........... lots of "so called" gamers who had the opportunity to but never bought the Saturn or Dreamcast hung SEGA out to dry, so why should i show any remorse for sony?

yeah a lot of people didn't buy Dreamcast or Saturn because we were more interested in other consoles and their exclusives more.  I didn't, and I don't know anyone who did, hate SEGA and buy those 2 second hand and 30 games for them just to hurt SEGA.  Hell i even buy Nintendo first party games new and they overcharge for those damn things even when they're from 07 or 08

I preferred the Megadrive, but still bought a SNES, i preferred the Saturn, but still bought an N64 & ps1, I preferred the Dreamcast, but still bought a Gamecube, Xbox & ps2.

So how exactly is not buying a SEGA console at all any help to SEGA? (Interested in other consoles games more or not)

A lot of you neglected SEGA, and thus when sony hang i won't bat an eyelid.

dude I was a little kid and not all of us have the money/time/interest to buy all the platforms.  If you can that's great.  I played Saturn at a friend's house but if I had asked my parents for one they would have laughed me out of the room.  Hell I didn't even get a PSone until 98.  Didn't get a PS2 until 04 when Dreamcast was discontinued and that was my first 6th gen system.  I never said it was help to SEGA I said it's irrational to buy a system and a bunch of games for it but get them all used just to hurt the company.  If you're using their product they deserve the profit from it.  I never used SEGA systems (except at a friend's house and even then rarely) but at least I didn't have an irrational desire to not give them any profits and enjoy all their products the same.  You seem very bitter about this and I'm sorry SEGA consoles aren't around anymore, but for what it's worth I would buy a SEGA system 10 times over before I bought a MS system.  Although I would buy Sony and Nintendo before either.
