Sega To Take X-Box To Arcades

kikta writes "Well, after our previous speculation about what Sega would do after they got out of the hardware biz, it appears we have our answer. CNN is reporting that they will be producing motherboards to port the Xbox to the arcade. GamePro also weighed in on the announcement."

Re:What SEGA SHOULD be doing....

[Cutriss]

SEGA has done two great things for the world. Hedgehogs and driving games. SEGA should do hedgehogs and driving games. Simple as that.

I beg to differ. Watch as I karma-whore my way into greatness by rallying Sega-fanboys and geeks alike by reminding you of Sega's other immense successes:

Phantasy Star series
Alex Kidd series
Shining Force series
NiGHTs Into Dreams
Panzer Dragoon series
Ecco the Dolphin series
Toejam and Earl series
Eternal Arcadia (Skies of Arcadia in US)
Jet Set Radio (AKA Jet Grind Radio)
Virtual On series
Sakura Taisen series
Virtua Fighter series

And then, you have all the *real* old school stuff...Shinobi, Out Run, Space Harrier, Alien Syndrome, Flicky, Bloxeed, Psycho Fox...

Not to mention a wide array of some excellent third party titles that have a significant background history, like Capcom's port of Strider, Radiant Silvergun, all the SNK home ports...The Genesis may have been Sega's highlight in history...but that doesn't mean that everything else they've done was a failure.
