OH BOY! SEGA trademarks Skies of Arcadia/Eternal Arcadia in Japan

[JohnVG]

Rieko Kodama (Phoenix Rie) died in 2022, was 58 years old, being still a Sega worker. Fuck... that comes too late. It's a shame.

I do not expect anything more than a remaster for Switch 1 or 2. Not a remake, much less a sequel. A promising franchise from 25 years ago is too old, now.
In fact, I do not expect nothing, until Sega shows videos of something real. Not a pre-development trailer, like they did with VF.

All japanese third companies are suffering too much to produce any interesting real game outside the famous franchises from the last 10 years. They are just trying to survive, and one step wrong is now a real FATALITY. 30 years ago was nothing.

Sometimes, I'm asking myself if it will not be better for Sega to re-start licensing new Mega Drive and Dreamcast games, and selling new "MD and Dreamcast" pc hardware based machines, to play those games inside using an embedded emulator.
