Sega was good in building consoles but they screwed up their strategy. DC was better in graphics than ps2. sega couldve been a good competitor in the console wars if they didnt make mistakes. what do u think?

Oh, man...

I loved the Dreamcast...

Yeah, definitely. The thing was pure win.

By the way, did you ever notice how much the old Xbox controllers resembled the Dreamcast's? Quite interesting, ne?

Well, are they even an independent company anymore, though?

I dunno if they still have the wherewithal to do so...even if they still have the money to manufacture consoles, do they have the equipment anymore?

And have they learned their lesson from the Saturn and Dreamcast problems by now, should the above be true?

Hopefully, they have and do. I'd love to see Sega boot M$ outta the big 3.

If the dreamcast didn't died.It should be able to churn out title like Shenmue
series to the end but this was not meant to be.Sega should focus to refine its old series like Sonic,Shining Force and Phantasy Star for their continued existence.Maybe they can make a good handheld system which is aim not to beat the Psp or DS but just to generate enough profit before venturing back to the hardware business.

pretty good strategy there. but sadly even sega games nowadays are not good enough to generate much profit for them. look at the new gen sonic games, pretty awful dont u think.
