| Mr Puggsly said: Well the Saturn was like $400 at launch (not sold at a loss) while the Dreamcast was only $200. Also, we can presume the price to game development went way up from Saturn to Dreamcast. Shenmue for example had one the biggest budgets of the time. I guess their efforts to make the Dreamcast competitively priced and cutting edge just cost them too much money. |
it's true, dreamcast was heavily sold at a loss. sega expected software sales to make up for it but piracy ended their hope and sega became software only.
