Great idea in theory. It didn't work out to well for Sega thus far. Not only has Sega still struggled to be profitable their status as one of the best game developers is gone.

That is because Sega stopped making good games most of the time, or failing to localise the few good ones.  Nothing to do with not having their own hardware.

Sega's fall in software quality started when they became a third party developer. It could be coincedental but they seemed to make better software when they were trying to sell their hardware platforms.
