No lie fam. I never had a dreamcast personally but a family friend did, faint ass memories of it but i loved watching him play. That asthetic still fire. Love what ive emulated too. Genesis and ps1 was my childhood but damn i would have loved to see sega have continued console success
When did the fall off with Sega start?
Was it when they had the head-to-head battle for supremacy between the Sega Saturn VS. the Sony Playstation, and the Playstation ultimately reigning supreme?
It would make sense honestly, they seemed pretty close (she helped him pick the name for TPAB)
And itās possible she would have been on the GKMC tour
Wait she came up with TPAB name?
Yeah Imma put y'all on. Bro the s*** insane.
Before Sega ever made the Saturn.
SONY tried to collaborate with NINTENDO bruh. But Nintendo was like f*** that, we're finna do our own thing.
So boom.
Felling snubbed, Sony noticed how Nintendo was on the rise and they wanted to partner with Sega to make a whole CONSOLE.
Like I reiterate... that Sony who would go on to make the PLAYSTATION CONSOLES.. wanted to collaborate with Sega on a full fledged console together just to take Nintendo on lol
"In a recent interview about E3 1995, Sega of America's former CEO Tom Kalinske gave MCV further details about talks between the two companies, which ultimately fell through.
"Sony came to us after they had been rebuffed by Nintendo," Kalinske recalled. āThey had wanted Nintendo to use some technology that they had, and Nintendo instead chose to work with Philips. That really annoyed Sony. Olaf Olafsson Sony Electronic Publishing President and Micky Schulhof President of Sony America came to my office and said, 'Tom, we really donāt like Nintendo. You donāt like Nintendo. We have this little studio down in Santa Monica Imagesoft working on video games, we donāt know what to do with it, weād like Segaās help in training our guys. And we think the optical disc will be the best format.'"
Kalinske went to the head of Sega who vetoed the idea.
Niggas made the Saturn, and Sony went on to do the Playstation which eclipsed the Saturn. Crazy s***.
But what really killed them was the failure of the Dreamcast. Dreamcast was ahead of it's time but could not compete with what Sony & Nintendo had going on in the 90s, early 2000s.
Funnily enough Microsoft tried to collaborate with Sega on a console, but they would turn Microsoft down as they wanted to focus on just making games at this point, cuz their console experiences left them a bit spurned.
Microsoft would go on to make the XBOX.
So yea we could've gotten Sega / Sony and Sega / Microsoft console collabs

they started to go downhill when they tried to keep the genesis alive with add ons
