 Because Sega doesn't think about the consumer as much as they think
 about lining their pokect with ca$h. They bring out a system just
 because they have a idea for a game that would be cool on it. Then
 they ditch the system. Sega CD, 32X. I mean come on. How many games
 are on the 32X anyway? 4? Oh yeah, then there is the genesis 2.

 The Jag sucked. Plus it was made by Atari. It was brought out in the
 16 bit era too. None of the games looked too good either. And the
 price was too high. (when first came out)
