May 2006 - SEGA's Continued Existence

5/13/2006 - SEGA's Continued Existence

During the console wars, SEGA's Genesis defeated both the NES an SNES in sales. If nowhere else, than at least in the US. This was not just due to it's technology but also due to its games. SEGA had an affinity, like most game designers of the time, to create interesting games which had never been seen before. To hear them described it sometimes sounds like the games were developed under dubious circumstances. Examples:

Rocket Knight Adventures/Sparkster: A possum who is the leader of a band known as the "Rocket Knights" fights evil pigs bent on galactic domination through revival of ancient evil technology. He wields a magic sword and fights using his abilities as well as the rocket pack suited with his armor.

Ecco: Dolphins, aquatic puzzles, Aliens, and Time Travel. This game has the most interesting set of components. Who would ever have though of using a dolphin to fight aliens in time?

Sonic the Hedgehog: A blue rodent moving at super fast speeds collecting rings and strange stones to defeat a fat megalomaniacal scientist. The very concept of this is rather comical and almost silly if someone mentions it like this.

Interesting things whose intended purpose was to be innovative, a technique that is now being ventured upon more heavily than before by Nintendo. Slowly the lack of new games removed the support needed for the advanced gaming technology owned by SEGA. Had it not been for a lack of games the Saturn and Dreamcast could have been grand successes. Even after the loss of building systems and hardware, the better portion of SEGA's recent ability, SEGA continued. Subsisting on sequels, continuations of franchises, sports games, and the occasional addition of ingenuity in gaming SEGA has made a rather strong comeback. True SEGA fans, and even fair weather friends, have held onto the occasional good games that appear. Unfortunately SEGA has now taken another downward step which could prove to be its undoing if left unchecked. Read full article...
