I was about to type a similar point. Everyone raves about Sega's IP nowadays, but outside of Sonic, they sold like crap. Jet Grind/Set Radio and Shenmue are the quintessential must-have hipster games now, but they sold like crap back in the day, along with Virtual On, Chu Chu Rocket, Skies of Arcadia and a bunch of others I can't think of at the moment.

I see people online all the time begging for a Shenmue 3 or JSR sequel (and I wouldn't mind the latter + a new Virtual On), but I can guarantee you funding those projects would be the equivalent of shoveling a pile of money into a burning furnace.


PSO was one of their best games, and it was very successful and very, very 1st party. Guess which game has a sequel? Although PSU was toilet PSO2 looks very promising.

Dreamcast was the greatest fighting game system of all time and if it had gotten more 3rd party support maybe it would have been more successful, but 3rd party games don't sell on Sega systems lol.
