Unless you're on Windows... then it's not.
"Get one. Consume us!"
I wonder how well she would get along with a Shinobi anode/cathode?
Same like what's always happened when a ninja meets another ninja ... a sense of rivalry.
I guess. But Sega were high-risk,-high-reward in the past and it really paid off in the past.
The Mega Drive for example was meant solely to compete with the NES. Either Sega knew the SNES was on the way or they didn't, which made it even more impressive the Mega Drive fought well against the SNES.
Then someone on Sega said, "Hey! Why don't we built-in a free game in the Mega Drive II?" and that paid off well in marketing also.
Now days, Sega mostly just sit on their thumbs and IPs. I was hoping the "Sega Renaissance" we had (when third-party developers started remaking games for them) would have lasted longer but it seemed to have died down now.
You got to remember that SEGA is a Japan company.
Mega Drive was indeed a success, but not in Japan.
In Japan, SEGA was the king of arcades.
Before Saturn came along, most people knows SEGA there from arcades, UFO catchers, and amusement.
Take example from one of their most succesful one ... their colaboration with Atlus : Purikura
It was so successful it became a culture, not just a hype and wide phenomenon.
Most of their success in Japan was from innovation instead of milking old IPs.
Their most succesful console in Japan, SEGA Saturn, had very few old IPs too.
