The dreamcast - a brilliant new concept in the future of gaming. So what went wrong?
I think it was too much too soon. It went in full throttle, only it advertised 'up to 60 million players' when there were'nt any online games and well, there were'nt any decent games at all. Looking at the current dreamcast software, one wonders why everyone doesnt have one. I put it down to marketing and adversing. the playstation brand is a very cool one and the chances are any 15-25 year old male with a tv and a sense of fun has either a playstation or playstation 2. Who was dreamcast aimed at? Nintendo are for the kids, playstation for the more sophicated among us. But dreamcast...?
Yes its a shame but the future is now alot brighter for sega. They have cut their losses. No more console sob stories - just games! the things they make best!
Who can argue of segas best time - the time of sonic, knuckles and echo the dolphin a time when sega was cool. Well sega can now sit back and take peace in the knowledge that they can make games and only the best games.
Crazy Taxi - out on ps2 april 27th! the first of many. You can expect sonic and virtua fighter on that little black box aswell...
Sega are headed for a boom in business.
