Sega was never late to the party, they simply had too much legacy to compete with Sony, who didn’t have any legacy at all. Sega made decisions based on the way things had always been done, and Sony made a lot of decisions that were seemingly very stupid, but up paying off for them. For example, the Sony, PlayStation wasn’t actually any cheaper than the steak of Saturn. It’s just that the PlayStation took the memory card, controller, and game out of the box and sold them to you separately. This gave the illusion of being cheaper while actually selling you a consul box that doesn’t do anything until you spent an extra $150 to make it work. It was shrewd on Sony‘s part, but realistically Sega was simply doing what had always been done. But Saggus history is moved in this conversation, because that was 30 years ago and Sega is an entirely new company now.

DEAD right about Sega not knowing their IP's worth. Story time: years ago, I worked for a company in the US that owned all the IP licensing rights to SEGA's game catalogue and their whole purpose was to go out to hollywood and get projects made. It FASCINATED me from day 1 that no one on that team knew anything about these games, or which ones to pursue. I was a week into the job and realized from their positioning and pitches that they couldn't differentiate relevance levels between Ristar, Comix Zone, and Sonic.
@ROJM-cc1gp8 ай бұрын
So you were with Stories LLC then. Funny. Things changed since then after the Sonic movie. They got buoyed after hollywood came knocking and brought the rights to three/four of their IPs including the one you just mentioned. So now they actively shopping IPs again but they realize that the games getting the deals are titles from the back catalogue and not the newer stuff like Persona which they want to get licensed to hollywood.

Sega is this really weird amalgamation of really good and incomprehensibly bad decisions. Like buying Atlus, was genius. PSO2 (the original), was genius. Streets of Rage 4 and Sonic Mania, were amazing. Giving the Yakuza team carte blanche and money, was surprisingly wise. Yet they also constantly fuck up everything. They're just really weird like that, and it's really difficult to predict what they'll do next. What I will say is that the Sega of old has been gone for over two decades by now, so I really doubt this IP "revival" initiative will work. It's as Kyle said, I don't think they understand what made these games good, and I think they're relying on people they outsource to to figure it out instead, which would be... daring, I guess ?

You can already play old games in it. They already made an updated Virtua Fighter to add to Lost Judgement.

@@JazGalaxy SEGA never said that stop lying or you would have given a link. I can easily prove what SEGA actually said about the project which JSR and CT are a part of. Its the same thing of a massive project which includes super games, reboots, remakes and updates/sequels which is what they mean by new era. So go take your tantrum somewhere else.
