"Who's getting the best deal out of Sega?"

Who do you think is getting the best deal out of Sega?

Personally I'd have to say that Nintendo are getting the best deal from Sega with Monkey Ball and Monkey Ball 2, the best version of PSO (easily), F-Zero GX and various other things like getting Link in Soul Calibur 2 and the Sega GBA games.

Microsoft have had JSRF in a console bundle along with Sega GT (I think) and have Shenmue 2

Sony, well they've had their share of Sega stuff too.

Anyway, as I said who do you think is getting the best deal out of Sega?

Obviously the Nintendo list spans two consoles, so they have the advantage there.

It doesn't necessarily mean that one console is getting the better deal than the others - after all, it depends on your taste in games and whether you even like Sega's games.

Billy Hatcher and SOA:L and its sequal (where are thou?!!) are also on GC.

Sonic Heroes is coming out on all of them too.

Nintendo and Xbox get some equally good games

I've only included games that to my knowledge are out.

Obviously my missing of Skies was a mistake.

Soul Calibur 2 is a Namco game, not Sega, and Electronic Arts are publishing it on all formats.

Besides Link is only any good if someone likes Zelda games. In the same way Tekken fans will think getting Heihachi in the Playstation 2 version is good, and Spawn fans that the Xbox gets Spawn in that version (sans cape).

And JSRF and Shenmue 2 on X-box

And SEGA soccer slam on Gamecube.

Errrrrrrr all Nintendo really need to do regarding japanese developers is win Konami back and with MGS: TS being the start of what could be a great relationship again then it could already be happening.

And then all Nintendo need to do is be a bit more assertive in the west and not just with EA... Rockstar... Acclaim... Eidos are all vital...

Ubi Soft is also one Ninty can't afford to lose... they be mates for now...

Namco? Do'h! :D

I don't really pay much attention to beat'em ups.

So they are, my bad. Still no link with Sega though. I get the feeling there is a pun to be made of that sentence but I can't quite figure how...
