So sad Neo-Geo and Sega have sunk so low.

I don't really miss their hardware, Sega shot themselves in the foot by releasing too much cash-grab junk over the 90's instead of focusing on their core products.

But the games they made still create this painful nostalgic twinge in my heart. Just HEARING the Dreamcast sound chip affects me.

Agreed on the nostaliga, but what cash grabs? The 32x and Mega CD might have been failures, but they were pretty innovative I think. The Dreamcast was also the 90s :)

Fair enough. The products could, and probably had, been made in good faith. But, I think the constant barrage of new products from Sega, along with the complicated hierarchy of how the products interacted with each other, burned people out.

Sega releases:

- Master System: October 1985

- Genesis: August 14, 1989

- Sega CD: December 12, 1991

- x32: December 3, 1994

- Saturn: November 22, 1994

- Dreamcast: November 27, 1998

Nintendo Releases:

- NES: July 1983

- Super Nintendo: November 1990

- Nintendo 64: June 1996

Now that's making me nostalgic

Don't you mean the Genesis/Mega Drive sound chip?
