Impossible.
Come on. Sega always seem to have such a cool sense of style and presentation. I'd like to think if they played their cards better, things would have probably played out better.

But you know what they say about hindsight and all the that jazz.

I feel SoJ won't be able to get out of their own way. Whether now, or down the line. Still love the Dreamcast though. GOAT system for me.

Remember last summer when they announced their plans to turn arcade machines into cloud computing centers for when they're not in use, and then less than six months later they announced they were selling a ton of their arcades because coronavirus has ruined their profitability? Sega have always been the masters of awful decisions.

Oh and don't forget their anniversary celebration was a miniature Game Gear that literally no one cared about.

Id love to live in a world where a Dreamcast 2 came out and the Shenmue story was finished.

Sakura Wars mobile game. 70 million budget, and they only made 2 million from it. Sega still going strong with their decisions.

So SEGA has a very successful game console out now, while Nintendo is struggling in that field and only releases mostly-subpar Mario and Pokemon games nowadays.

...Not sure if I would like that timeline.

It's unfortunate. One thing I'd love to see from them is a huge comeback and return to form, but I doubt that'll ever happen any time soon.

Yeah, the Dreamcast was a cool ass system. It's good bad I only ever had, like, 3 games for it lol

A Nintendo phone would be a couple orders of magnitude more annoying than Apple.

The persona one I'll put into the buying Atlas category, and slightly alter your second one.

2. Giving Yakuza a bigger western presence.

The same amount. Rule 34 transcends space and time.

Bench Tails is far too abhorrent to be confined to a single universe.

I hate this because the Sakura Wars reboot was fantastic, but the tie-in sequel anime ranged from mediocre to awful depending on the episode, the stage play was delayed for a year, and the gacha is a failure, and knowing Sega that's going to be enough to shelve the franchise again like what they did after Valkyria Chronicles 4 undersold.
