Partnership between Microsoft and Sega in Japan!

Sega profit with sales of games for PS4 and Wii U is not as expressive as people imagine. Microsoft unable to afford the loss of revenue from Sega with these sales of games for competition quietly and very cheap to Microsoft.

The biggest profit of Sega comes today of the slot machines market in Japan and her partnership with Microsoft in the area of games don't hurt anything this deal from Sega.

 

Would you want Microsoft to purchase SEGA?

Theres really no point in microsoft buying sega. Sega already has games on xbox live, so its not like they are dead and gone.

SEGA has a much larger presence at TGS than E3, so I doubt it.

"Kinect" is a dirty word 'round these parts. Microsoft knows that Kinect stuff does not sell enough, so making any game now with full KInect functionality would be a waste of money.

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Full AR functionality.[/quote]

What has "full AR functionality?

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Full classic mode.[/quote]

What has "full classic mode"?

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Collection of every single Sonic game.[/quote]

Very doubtful. Considering both Sonic 1 and Sonic 2 are due to be de-listed from Xbox Live Arcade at the end of this week.

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Sonic the Hedgehog NEW.[/quote]

Isn't there an exclusive deal with Nintendo for Sonic?

If they stopped making terrible Sonic games (even SEGA themselves acknowledge that they are bad) I may be interested.

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Bayonetta 3.[/quote]

This may be possible. Bayonetta 2 was a Wii U exclusive, but it may be possible to move the next game to other consoles

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Finally get some Bleach ultimate entire series kind of game would be good.[/quote]

I'm not someone who follows the Bleach series, but I'm okay with this.

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Finally get Panzer Dragoon Orta 2.[/quote]

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Phantasy Star.[/quote]

While these games have a significant western audience, they are more focused towards the Japanese audience. Considering how badly Xbox One is failing in Japan, these games would be better suited on the PS4 than the Xbox One.

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Finally bring Sega GT out of the garage.[/quote]

I really enjoyed SEGA GT back in the day. I'm not too sure if there is a place on the market for it right now though. There are quite a few high quality racing games on the market right now. Can SEGA GT find a spot among that
group after such a long hiatus?

[quote user="Shinjuki"]Do Shenmue III right really quick.[/quote]

This is a game that we will never see on Xbox. Sony are funding it's production, so it's going to be a PS4 exclusive.

Also, do you want them to make Shenmue III right? Or do you want them to make it really quick? Because you can't have both. A game done right will take time to develop. While a game done really quick will be a buggy, terrible
mess.

SEGA doesn't own the rights to MLB games. They are not going to make it.

 

I don't know which is funnier.

That Zen thinks Kinect is a useless feature or that he fell for this troll bait.

Please, indulge me. Remind me where I said the Kinect is a "useless" feature? I said that it wasn't a popular feature. I said that Kinect games (not the technology) don't sell enough to be viable. I never once said it was
"useless".

Poe's Law, my friend.

 

You need 2 folks for an argument Zen.

Best of luck with that.

 

We're arguing? I wasn't aware of that.

Here I was thinking that you just misconstrued what I said.

 

I don't think Sega will ever return to glory sadly.
