On point 6 -- There is a difference between needing to be an uber-hacker (3733T) or just not having any copy protection.
DC had very easy to break protection and that is cited as one reason it failed.
Meanwhile, Sega CD and 3DO games can be copied today by CD-Burners because they had NO protection. Of course, back then, no one thought it was necessary (even though optical drive technology had been around and discussed for years).

I am Mario. I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
