i bought one 5 yrs after w/ like 10 games from my friend for 70 bucks...it was indeed a cool system though.

They should really go back into the hardware game.

the whole Sega situation is kinda sad to me though, Like I feel kinda bad that the potential they had is gone to waste, and when they finally put together asolid masterpiece it gets crushed, went from making consoles and their own awesome games now to being sony/microsoft and nintendos little personal pet

sucks man

 

[mister916]

I miss Powerstone.

Sure someone could make a part 3 but the creater has the last episode of the series which is the ending of the story

 

[pr0phecy718]

they're all appreciated tho

, i'm not going to start a consolestart-up war like that ps3 and x box thread from a few nights ago

Oh man that was the day. I still remember picking up my preorder, was one of the happiest days in my young life.

Loved all the advertisements leading up to the launch.

u willing to fund it? cause sega was talking about how back then the original shenmue costed a ridiculous amount to develop it and how the costof developing it today would be beyond ridiculous

they're full of crap. they alienated their fans and sammy (their new owner) has basically stifled them into making crap product now. poor yusuzuki has wanted his series to finish and hasn't been able to get it out there. the thing is, the story is finished, at least let us know what happens.

ghenges, what you talkin about willis?

 

[ninjahood]

what killed sega is it wasn't poppin in japan...they should've just cut they losses in japan and kept da american console poppin........

and its completely assbackwards cuz da sega saturn was KILLIN Playstation 1 in japan and they pulled da plug on it cuz it wasn't poppin in da US

 

[quiickz]

I remember the first time playing this System I was like
