If Sega Were 100% Honest With Us...In 1999

[@SonofTiamat]

Long story short, Sega made good consoles and games, but sucked at business.

[@Thebossstage1]

too bad they haven't made a good game in over 10 years

[@SonofTiamat]

Well, Sega also made Virtua Fighter 5, Space Marine, Dark Void (that was kind of a mixed bag though). People always immediately think of Sonic when they think of Sega and forget their numerous other IPs. Speaking of Sonic, Sonic All Stars Racing

But...the Dreamcast actually was pretty awesome

[@brunkopops9321]

That's correct. The SEGA dreamcast really was awesome, a lot of promises that SEGA made with it, they delivered on and it was ahead of its time. But because of their bad business skills and the failure of the 32X and the Saturn, people lost faith in SEGA which resulted in the dreamcast's death. The dreamcast Could've saved SEGA, but SEGA failed

[@shoopoop21]

The dreamcast was great, the games for it were not. The dreamcast had a horrible lineup.

[@Iusti85]

The only thing that kills the Dreamcast it was the "DVD fever" everybody bought the PS2 becouse "you can play DVDs on it". Back in those days no body cares about the 32x and the Saturn. The only thing everybody really cares is that the PS2 can play DVDs. And no the lineup wasnt horrible it was great from sonic to shenmue, you have power stones, jet set radio, marvel vs capcom3, virtual on, quake arena 3, house of the dead 2, crazy taxy, grandia, skys of arcadia. Etc etc etc.

[@SIPEROTH]

+Helmuth Martinez It wasn't just the DVD, Sega was coming from failed consoles, Sony was coming from a big success with Playstation 1. The Playstation already was a big name and it was the number one in the previous generation. The biggest competitor was Nintendo 64 and it was miles away in sales and success. So the ground was already ready for a huge hype over a Playstation 2. And if on top that we take the DVD the more power etc and all the amazing third party titles coming for it then it was obvious The Playstation brand had the market by the balls for another generation. Also Sony had money to promote the console before release, money Sega didn't have after failures and selling the Dreamcast with not much profit.

[@professorrosenstock5026]

Gendo3s2k Honestly, I was more into Elmo when it was around. Still Sega was dying from poor manage meant

[@MrLCGO]

Worst part, it was the future of consoles as we knew them...

[@MrJoeyWheeler]

+MrLCGO In an odd way the Dreamcast was ahead of its time. A bit like how you could use your mobile phone for global connections on Pokemon Crystals' japanese version (which was removed internationally because mobile phones hadn't caught on yet)

[@SamuelJamez17]

+MrLCGO I know right? But I cant remember how it failed. I mean, it really was ahead of it's time, so what happened?

[@legatelaurie]

+Damian Freeman (TheExceeder) exactly

[@MrJoeyWheeler]

Samuel James Poor marketing decisions, and being out-competed by its rivals. It excelled in some areas but fell painfully short in others.

[@MrLCGO]

Samuel James​ Same thing they did with the Genesis/Megadrive realese it too late in the lifespan of the generation they were trying to compete (Genesis was supposed to compete against the NES, just like the Dreamcast was supposed to compete with the PlayStation and N64). Also what Damian Freeman​ said.

Funny thing, the dreamcast was far from a bad console

[@DrShaym]

It's like Sega never learned from the last time they put all of their eggs in one basket ten years earlier. "The NES is only 8-Bit! Get that shit out of here! Our Genesis console is _16-Bit_! Suck it Nintendo! Genesis does what Nintendon't!" Then the Super Nintendo came out.

[@MrLCGO]

Man, this took me back and made me remember how hyped up was for the Dreamcast (and I was a Nintendo fanboy back in the day) and then it made me sad... I hope history doesn't repeat itself with Nintendo...

[@HouseOfSKYlyNe]

+MrLCGO History always repeats itself. Mankind doesn't learn very easily.

[@soupcake3092]

+MrLCGO Dont worry they made so much money from the wii that they will have to screw up many many times before going bankrupt or anything.

[@MrLCGO]

Nerdy Nachos Well, that's true (and the amiibo craze has also helped them), but now they have lost Iwata...

[@mii29]

+MrLCGO just because wiiu isn't doing well doesn't mean that Nintendo is not doing well. the ds made so much $$$$ , the 3ds prints $$$, the wii printed so much $$$ , not tell mention amiibos, and they still made prophet from the wiiu. Nintendo knows what they are doing . it's sad iwata left this world but Nintendo knows what they must do to make things right. now as for Sony they will end up like sega, and Microsoft gearing to pc. Sony still has not made prophet because they are still in dept. Ps4 won't pay off all that dept. also Nintendo has money coming in from other areas that's not gaming related.

[@riketvs]

+MrLCGO so? Iwata might have been an important figure but he wasn't the only one who helped Nintendo 3ds/Wii u beginning struggle

[@09philj]

If Atari was 100% honest with us in 1982.

[@LoneAlchemist]

if u wanted a more authentic look you shouldn't had made it widescreen and gone with 4:3 instead

[@prince_nocturne]

*sigh* The sad truth is that this IS the truth. The Dreamcast delivered on a LOT of the promises given... bu~ut without any early games and little 3rd party support early on, and the PS2's massive success (with a TON of 3rd party support) just around the corner, followed by the fourth console in the market (x-box) it was just... not enough. Poor SEGA. You used to be able to make games, too. SEGA is kind of like that jock from high school and college. They were really popular, but then the world moved on without them, and they're stuck trying to relive those days as the sit in debt, balding, and overweight with their life falling apart around them. And if someone like me, who was SOLIDLY on the Genesis side of that console war, can admit this... why can't others?

[@MrStrikecentral]

+Xavier Price Without any early games? What are you talking about? The Dreamcast launched with 19 games!! Power Stone was the best blind game purchase I ever made in my entire life.

[@Tornado1994]

+Xavier Price Dreamcast didn't fail period. It did very well. The only one fatal mistake was GameWorks in 1997. That $2 billion was needed for Dreamcast not for a low budgeted,poorly run D&B's style chain.

[@prince_nocturne]

MrStrikecentral www.vgchartz.com/analysis/platform_totals/ Those numbers tell me it DID fail. 8.20 million globally. PS1: 105 mil. PS2: 152 mil. N64: 32 Mil. Gamecube 12 mil. Even the Wii U, Nintendo's worst selling system to date, which is still in production and selling, beat the Dreamcasts's entire possible lifetime in sales globally. EVEN THE SEGA SATURN MANAGED TO SELLING MORE! (even if just barely) Yes. The Dreamcast failed. Was it a bad system? No. I never said it was. Just that it failed.

[@Tornado1994]

Xavier Price First, VG Chartz is erroneous and known for that. Second, you do know the system was only on the market for less than 3 years right. 10 Million for a console that was only supported until 2001 is very good.

[@prince_nocturne]

"The system was on the market for less than 3 years" Because it failed. You're proving my point there. Great system, still failed in the market.

[@benwasserman8223]

Well that's kind of... depressing

[@1ex1uger-prank-calls]

The Dreamcast indeed an awesome system. Sadly, Sega alienated its fanbase with the 32X and Saturn debacles, so the DC couldn't succeed no matter how well designed it was or how awesome its games were.

***** Seriously, movies WERE released on widescreen on VHS during the 1990s. It was just mostly the "director's cut" versions of films, though.

[@Agumon5]

The Sega Dreamcast was actually a fantastic video game console that did everything right except timing. It had the best games, awesome price, phenomenal online support, and even 3rd party support was there. If they had launched this console a year before they did, I think we would all be anticipating the next Sega system, and Shenmue 6 right now.

[@UsurperKingZant]

Sega Dreamcast has the best average video game quality of any console ever

[@vyperii]

+UsurperKingZant It also has some of the overall best games period... The Shenmue series, MSR, the best versions of the best 2D Capcom fighters (SVC and SFA3), Sonic Adventure... Games I pull out when I am fed up of the lack of quality in games these days...

[@alfrankensteinfeldman]

+TheVyperii Hell, the only reason it really even FAILED was the lack of a function to play DVDs.

[@vyperii]

I absolutely agree... Every person I knew who bought a PS2 whilst the Dreamcast was still on sale bought it purely as a DVD player as actual DVD players were more expensive...

[@e.corellius4495]

+TheVyperii that and there was just the library of games, the dreamcast had only like 30 games total, and while nearly every one of them were stupendous, the ps2 at the time had like 800 and only like 50 were good, but the quantity of choices made people more willing to buy it over the dreamcast back in the day. shame really.

[@e.corellius4495]

***** i worked in game sales in 99 and 2000, the raw library of games the ps2 had in those early years compared to the dreamcast was staggering. i saw countless people go in and buy random pile of shit early ps2 games, when every game on the dreamcast shelf was a god damn masterpiece. but there were just MORE ps2 games. alot of sony fanboys forget that pre-xbox ps2 was all quantity over quality, it wasnt until the xbox sales shot up post halo1 that ps2 shifted to gain the kind of quality games that i would have. trust me when i say that big game libraries make a big difference, even if its mostly crap.

[@elin111]

[@shablambalam2795]

"We've got Soul Calibur, which is gonna take down both Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter..." Wait, what? Street Fighter/Capcom was all over SEGA at the time. Alpha 3, Double Impact, Third Strike, Marvel Vs Capcom 2, Capcom Vs SNK Pro, CvS2...

[@Loader2K1]

+SHaBLaM BaLaM: Sega and Capcom have had an on-and-off relationship from 1989 to 2000.

[@shablambalam2795]

Loader2K1 But by 2000 Capcom was only releasing their fighters on SEGA hardware. In the arcade, SEGA NAOMI, and at home, Dreamcast.

[@Loader2K1]

[@Loader2K1]

+adultmoshifan87: You are not alone. I hate the fact that the bean counters have taken over the video game industry from the developers and, by proxy, the consumers. I get that it's a business, and I'm far from a business strategist, but the industry has been be doing asinine shit for years now. Remember with the advent of DLC, we were supposed to get new life injected into slightly older games? Not anymore! All DLC is now is payment to play a video game the way its supposed to be played, unless you want to wait a few months later and then buy a "Game of the Year" edition of said game. I have an X-Box 360, and I do play it frequently, but my Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 get more play from me than my 360 does. And honestly, this might sound weird, crazy, and/or stupid to you, but I miss the days of pre-DLC gaming, when the companies HAD to get everything right on the first try. And yes, I would kill for Sega to jump back into the video game industry as a first-party competitor. We'd probably be on the "Dreamcast 3" if Tom Kalinske was running Sega of America today.

The Dreamcast really was a revolutionary console. The VMUs in the controller was brilliant, the games were amazing, it was simply beautiful. Unfortunately, all their competitors just looked at what Sega did and copied what worked for their new systems. Sega had the unfortunate habit of tying radical new ideas and technologies while everyone else just sat back, copied and profited on what worked and let Sega eat the loss for what didn't. Companies can't afford to be revolutionary anymore. At least Sega tried.

[@shis1988]

[@bgpapa4178]

to be fair, the dreamcast was a great console with great games, and i absolutely loved mine. sooo many hours spent playing Phantasy Star Online, Skies of Arcadia, Grandia 2, Taxi Driver, Soul Edge/Soul Caliber, Shenmue, the list goes on. yea, it's library was smaller than it's competitors, but it had a higher % of quality games, so it evened out as far as i was concerned. plus, i had an N64 and PS1 too anyways, so i didn't have to miss out on the best games for those consoles either. the Dreamcast failed because of the combination of Shenmue eating up a shit ton of money that never got earned back, and when the PS2 came out, it literally blew everything else out of the water, thus securing the Dreamcasts downfall. plus, it was slowly falling behind the PS1 and N64 due to not having well known titles to compete with the likes of RE 1-3, mario party, super smash bros, final fantasy 7, crash, sports games, mario kart, ect. Sega essentially made the same mistake Sony did when they released the original PS3. it was more expensive than the other consoles, and parents generally will choose the cheaper option when buying for their kids, especially back then. and it was all a trickle down effect from there. the ability to play DvDs would have been nice too.

I'd personally like to see "If GameCube 'fans' were 100% honest with us since 2006"

[@alegamer-uw2zp]

i wish sega still made consoles

[@ZioSerpe]

On a side note I now realize that the dreamcast was the only console of it's generation that had street fighter III

[@themetal2001]

I played phantasy star online on 56k dial up Internet and it was amazing experience. There was no lag at all, unlike online games nowadays.

I don't know. You had me in your corner until the end i wanted to see something with him getting fired lol

[@Grayvorn]

I never even owned a Dreamcast, and i miss it so much.

[@Drago1995]

that background looks more 1991 then 1999

[@dragonking322]

the sad thing is.. the dream cast was actually a system that had really kickass games... it was just a half step in generation as opposed to a full step like Xbox and PS2.. it released too early and just didn't make the final push it needed too.

[@TheSonicsean]

In all fairness, what has Crash Bandicoot done since 1999?

[@ejilock]

This video only makes me want to play Sega games more. I miss Sonic Adventure, it was one of the games that got me hooked.

[@TyrBarghest]

It's actually pretty weird to see that i still act like i'm in the '90s.

[@KossolaxtheForesworn]

+Tyr Barghest well thats pretty sad.

[@sunnypeach8299]

+Tyr Barghest I agree with you there man. That was the last time kids were still somewhat kids.

[@metaexpyrosinpalingenesis5005]

If Google were 100% honest with us... Can't believe you haven't done that yet.

[@DecentPlayerNA]

I cried more during this video than when mufasa died.

[@Shadethewolfy]

Sega was extremely ahead of their time with their hardware, and I love that about them.
