I remember Sega... I'm not drawing the lines that connect the two. 

One can hope

But I highly doubt it..

Maybe..

These bad boys right here:

By the way, how attractive the Sega Saturn looked? It was always the most good looking console in my opinion. A friend had it and I used to always look to the thing with a deep yearning, like George Michael looked at Maeby. 

lol

You would think so... The numbers they are about to give to their shareholders aren't going to be great, and their projections for the holidays aren't going to inspire confidence. It makes sense that you'd want to have the investors focused more on the future, which means revealing the NX. So, I'm pretty confident there will be a direct this next week.

Of course, I was also confident it would be revealed in July... and August and September...

It not about failed console its about be financially strong Sega had terrible financial decision while Nintendo even this gen will make profit and has tons of money.

I guess the failure of Saturn and Dreamcast influenced their decision. Nintendo had a taste of the mobile market. I think the NX success will help to consolidate their will into stay in the console market. So, I think they are procrastinating because they are fine tuning something, not the console, but the presentation and deals for third party support.

Yes, influenced, but point is that Sega almost bankrupt, basically they left out without money, that's why they were forced to abandon hardware market. Nintendo is in totally different position, they are full of money and they are making profit this gen despite Wii U faile, Nintendo is currently expanding business.

I wonder if the WiiU failed financially, like, if the profit was smaller than the cost overall, RD and everything. If I ran these companies I would always make plans to turn a profit even in the darkest of the scenarios. I hate risk.
