Dreamcast games anyone?

[rav96]

well simply put...

Sony advertising beat the hell outta DC adverts so many parents bought there kids PS2's

and then the casual gamer or not so enthsiastic gamer went for PS2's due to the failure of sega's last venture (ie Saturn)

PS1 had allready established it self hugely in the adult market, sony single handedly made Gaming more accesible to the older market and gaming was no longer seen as a kids thing, hence many of these older lot stuck to sony (eg the post pub gaming session - awesome)

at the time of PS2 coming out the price was just marginally higher than DVDplayers were back then so many people had added incentive to but it

therefore sega lost a shit load of money and had to opt out of the hardware market!

Sad

coz DC rocks
