That's true, but Sega used to be one of the giants of the video game industry and has been under-performing for a long while.

As the owner of Sega, I would renew all major franchises. I would treat Sonic like Mario in that I would split 3D Sonic and 2D sonic into two different franchises. 2D Sonic would follow in the footsteps of Sonic 4 whereas 3D Sonic would build upon the foundation laid by Sonic Adventure through Sonic 06 while taking aspects here and there from Generations and Unleashed.

I would release Virtua Fighter 6 with subsequent installments releasing every 2 - 3 years afterwards.

Phantasy Star Online 2 would receive a North American release followed by the announcement of a Phantasy Star JRPG.

New installments of Sega Rally, Outrun, Afterburner, Streets of Rage, and Hang On would retain their arcade roots and be re-imagined as download-only titles on Xbox Live and PSN.

yes. You'd have to have the original team so buy Rare and then buy Playtonic.

Get Grant Kirkhope on board and go back to the basics.

I read it as a joke. Sega is done with consoles.

Either EA and make their games quit sucking, or 2K and re-launch their sports franchises with generic teams but gameplay so good that fans would buy and mod them to have real teams.
