It appears that Sega are in big trouble and have had to take action first up it will publish games on Multi-format so things like Sega Gt and Jet Set Radio future will have to go all console format, when you are in the position that Sega are in at the moment it is very foolish to go down exclusive titles route anyway.
Then there are the Sega Sports titles which Sega will no longer produce for the GC as the sluggish sales of the cube have forced it into totally ditching sports titles for the GC as they are not financially profitable (oh dear).

Have you got a link to this news story? Might be interesting to read more about it.
I agree with venom, how do you know this? It isn't very well written by you, so in future, make posts that explain instead of frustrate.

Key Sega franchises are to go multiplatform, the company announced at a press conference in Japan. In an address given by Sega COO Satoshi Kayama, the Virtua Fighter and Sonic franchises were specifically earmarked as multiformat franchises, with the speech also hinting at current Xbox-exclusive titles being ported onto PS2 and GameCube.
Although no titles were specifically mentioned, Panzer Dragoon seems a likely candidate for a port.
Although Sega has made a profit in the first half of the fiscal year, its operating profit is down 20.3 percent on last year, with the company struggling to make the transition from hardware manufacturer to publisher. Sega specifically pointed to underachievement in the US market as a cause of its current woes.
Sega further announced that it intends to discontinue its range of sports titles on GameCube following massive under-performance in the US market compared with Xbox and PS2.
Stay tuned for further updates soon.
