Low-key, Sega has been killing it lately. Persona 3 and 5, Metaphor, Unicorn Overlord, Yakuza (Like A Dragon), Sonic games are selling like crazy and the movies have made over a billion. Previews have said Shinobi is looking like a classic. They might be on their way to where Capcom is now.

Yea, SEGA is getting back into the groove they once had, its dope to see them comin out the mud like this :childplease:

The GOAT is back on the rise :myman:

I wish they had newer arcade games, that’s what was so good about that system. I was a big Shenmue fan too.

SEGA still has some heat coming out this year for arcades :blessed:

Sega doesn't have the bread nor production pipeline to make a new console - it's even arguable if they have the software pipeline to supports/sustain one.

That aside, the first minute of the video in the OP includes the sentence "-maybe it's getting tougher for consoles, but game business overall is still expanding and there's the opportunity to reach more people". So yeah, no way these dudes make a new console. They're a third party publisher and will remain so, I'm afraid

a new sega console in the tradition of dedicated home consoles would have made this medium infinite times more exciting though :francis:

They probably wont make a new console for a while due to the instability going on right now, but I wont rule out the possibility within the next 10-15 years or so :manny:

Sega being back doesn't necessarily need to mean making home consoles though. Being an elite 3rd party developer holds weight in of itself.

Evidently, but that’s not what I was addressing. I was simply speaking to the new home console posts/point. Sega see opportunities to reach wider audiences in their positions as a 3rd party publisher/dev - as corroborated by the sentence in the video that I quoted.
