Long time Sega fanboy here. Is there a way that Sega, instead of ending up as a third party developer, still remains a console developer? One possible POD is that Nintendo keeps it’s deal with Sony, leading to a Nintendo PlayStation. Remember, people don’t like add-ons (Sega CD, 32X) and the Nintedo PlayStation more or less follows the same path as the Sega CD in OTL. Sega, judging from the poor sales of the PlayStation decides not to develop the 32X or the Sega CD, instead they completely focus on the Sega Saturn.

Result, the Sega Saturn is way easier to progrma for and becomes a bigger succes. “Mature” titles such as Resident Evil (the Saturn port was quite good and had some notable advantages over the Playstation original) or Metal Gear Solid go to the Saturn. Any thoughts?
