Just because a system has better hardware than the others out at the
time, doesn't mean that they are going to succeed. I think people will
keep their psxs and 64s.. Sega should quit the biz.

Why didn't devolopers have time to make the most of it? They realised
it was a sinking ship from the start. What? There was like a total of
15 titles on it? When no one buys your system, and developers don't
devolope stuff for it, where does ad money come from? Maybe it didn't
suck, but it was a preety damn good case of wrong place and the wrong
time.
It was released in the 16 bit reign. Nobody beat out the snes and the
genesis. They beat out the turbo graphix 16, 3DO, jaggy! :),and the
rest. I think even that neo geo thing. What the hell was that?
