If its real can really Sega make a comeback at this time? And can they reclaim being the leader of Sport Games?

I doubt it. Would they really have made that deal with Nintendo if they were going to create their own console? Also, I can't read Japanese but I think that text says "Entertainment something", probably Entertainment System or something similar.

yeah, it ain't gonna happen.

QFT.

I remember there was a buzz like this with the "Dreamcast 2" back in 12.12.2012. SEGA doesn't have the financial backing nor does it have any interest in manufacturing mainstream home consoles under its current management - they're busy making video games and arcade machines, the latter of which aren't making a huge buzz anyways.

"No tears now, just dreams Dreamcasts now" ;O;

Pretty sure Sega can't afford to make a console. They'd actually be bankrupt.

Not to mention the Sega we all knew and loved, they're dead. They're gone. They're never coming back. The Sega we have now is part of Sega Sammy, which is mainly dealt with Slot machines in casino's I think, could be remembering it wrong.

But yeah, Sega... I should say Sega Sammy doesn't have the funds to make a new console, develop games, advertise, package it, ship it and everything.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, I'm doing alright, thanks.

  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    That sounds really cool
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    I know the basics but no strategy at all :rofl:

    Watch chess streamers on Twitch and you'll pick up a thing or two.

    Not to mention there's an infinite number of chess games for every possible platform.

    just play it, get beaten a few times and start dominating
