7.9.2013 the BIG day for SEGA.

[MrSega]

So Mr Sega, Victor JVC Wondermega/X Eye (why is called different, same legal reason MD Genesis is ?) 2nd party, they had a chip or sound stuff in Sega 16 bit era so they are 2nd party ? Also NEC had a chip in Genesis (Dreamcast too I think) and machine (TG16) out at same time, so they were 1st and 2nd party ?

Red Foreman is a bitch, Clarence Boddicker is the real deal.

Exactly. JVC was the supplier of Mega CD/Sega CD's components (except the Model 1 CD Tray that was Sony) its lens and CD-ROM drive were from JVC.

The brand names for X`Eye/Wondermega were of course different because everything Mega Drive related had different branding in the western hemisphere.

A 2nd party is the supplier of parts,components, and silicon.

So yes JVC was considered the 2nd party brand of Mega CD just as Hitachi,NEC,Yamaha, and Imagination Technologies were considered 2nd party partners of Dreamcast.

Ah, but there is a NEC chip in Genesis too. I find it odd they supplied the Genesis while competing with them with TG16 but Sony released Sega CD games a year before PS1 when even partnering with Nintendo while making Sega CD games so no surprise, Nintendo talked with Philips behind Sonys back so it was a double cros$ everywhere.

There is nothing odd or new about that hell Samsung supplies Apple chips for the Iphone.

I meant I just found it interesting/odd/kind of surprised that a NEC chip was in the MD while MD battled TG16 at first, never saw anyone mention that here and never said it was new just a bu$iness practice and mention past examples as well. Samsung supplied them before Apple sued them or after ? Either way it's not surprising.

That doesn't surprise me, it happened with sf2, $nes got it first, md fans had to wait 6 months it was all bu$iness, or same games were slightly different on both because of $ that was known even in 1994 and I think discussed in EGM. In 1988 Nintendo was sued for monopolizing the market so yeah not surprising. Good video though. Now if XBox One had many Sony chips or PS4 ran Win8 that would surprise me.

GameWorks was a failure, a set-up. At the time, $4 billion in budget was left for SEGA from CSK. You have to understand, in 1991 SEGA had $10 billion in cash and a $12 billion dollar market cap. $2 billion was spent on development of the Model arcade series, $1 billion was spent on development of Jupiter,Mars and Saturn combined, SEGA gave SOA $500 million for 32X,another $500 million for PICO and Nomad, each year they pumped $1 billion into the Arcade Industy and by 1994 had $6 billion left but kept spending it on Arcade silicon.

Where did you get these figures from lol?
