Sega was talented but lacked resources and MS has no talent but has money.

Stopped reading there.


Nintendo had third parties exclusively to themselves because Sega had no pull unless they increased their marketshare. You should look up these things for yourself if you dont understand what people are saying. Sega had to create all of their alternative sports titles from scratch and pony up to sports stars and others for name value to have people gain interest in a variety of titles despite their lack of third party. They had limited funds and had to bust their ass to create internal games that they couldnt get because third party was beholden to Nintendo at that time. They wouldnt take the risk on Sega for a while.

Well part of the problem is Sega made too many mistakes. The Genesis had too many add ons, they should have just focused solely on Genesis and Sega CD. The Saturn seemed rushed to the market, expensive, they burned bridges with some retailers, and they even failed to deliver a noteworthy Sonic game on the Saturn. With the Dreamcast, Sega actually pushed EA away because they wanted to compete with their own sports games which was a bad idea in retrospect.

Either way, Sega going 3rd party was ultimately best for them. They simply couldn't compete with Nintendo, Sony, and eventually MS.

At the very least, I would love to see Sega bring more of their classic Sega CD, Saturn, Dreamcast, and Arcade games to PC and consoles.
