Other than Virtua Fighter, what handy uses is it to have a Sega Saturn online these days?

Only for VS Fighting games, Saturn has alot of them.
If VS Fighting games isn't your thing then I guess it's very few with Saturn Bomberman being the most popular one.

For video gaming machines, I believe Commodore PET is the first using it.



But if we are not counting computer,
just console,
I believe yes SEGA was the first back in 1990 for its Mega Drive.
It's Sega Meganet, a functioned on a pay to play basis using a peripheral called the Mega Modem.

It was short-lived but it would serve as a precursor to the Sega Channel (1994) and XBAND services (1994),
(both for SEGA Genesis / Mega Drive)
as well as a predecessor to online gaming services for video game consoles.

I love how Sega pretty much pioneered most of modern gaming... but hate that Sega are mostly forgotten about it.
Like how Virtua Fighters was the first kind of 3D fighting game out there, but these days it's Tekken, Dead or Alive or SoulCalibur that are the popular preferred franchises in the genre. (It's the story mode I tell you!)

Guess they're only good at creating but not on maintaining it.
It's like others were Thomas Alpha Edison and SEGA was Nikola Tesla.

At least people eventually found out Thomas Edison was an ass and Tesla got his credit even if it's long too late.

An ass that could reproduce it in mass production at an affordable price that's comfortable to customers.
Sometimes people mistaken a businessman with an inventor.

Then he should be credited and remembered as a businessman, not an inventor.
I mean sure he invented some things, but he mostly took others ideas and patent it.

Not that simple.
He took other's ideas, yes, but he made the ideas into reality and modify them to be useful to society.
The curses of the geniuses is they have some great ideas but the experiments are to expensive to do and too complex to be explained for investors / normal people.
Edison is kind of a bridge between these geniuses and the investors, he understand both since he's both a genius and businessman.
He treated Tesla unfair and badly, yes, but his Edison Manufacturing Company does have a role in history.

He was ... in the college classes at least.
In school, teachers rarely mentioned about business and politic.
Many cases happened when big company owner would be simplified as an inventor and powerful politician would be as a national hero.



It's as easy as saying the first Sonic game was made by SEGA, not by the combined work of Naoto Ohshima, Yuji Naka, Hirokazu Yasuhara, Masato Nakamura, etc
