SEGA's new gaming console?!

[aubreym]

i just found out today that Sega will be releasing a new gaming console called "Zone". Ok, I am curious and exited about a fresh new console on the market and such. yet seriously, a little too late maybe?
-the console will be much like the Wii with motion sensor. As well as an addition of another 30 Sega games to go with it.

Tell me what you think?
would you even buy this?

I highly suspect it's another emulator job, like the plug-in Mega Drive collection a few years back. Nothing for Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft to be worried about.

Unless it will have a good trick up it's sleeve, it's on it's way to failure.

EDIT: wait a second, £50? I'm starting to see how this could work.

Sorry, the article is bull.

personally, i used to like the old sega was great to play on their game consoles and games, but i don't think this will work, to many people have the Wii and if its similar people will stick with that, plus there is and will be more games for the Wii than this sega console.

Able to take old cartridges?!

It's probably fake, but if it's not, I am so there.
Interesting that after all these years you can still et a Mega Drive, they msut cost peanuts to make nowadays. I like the sound of that, now I just have to remember what I did with Military Micro Machines.

Sorry, the article is bull.

dont excuse yourself, I am quiet skeptical myself

well, even if this is true or not, i wouldn't consider buying it.

If this was true, I would buy it in a second...However, it probably isn't, and has just highlighted how much I miss my dreamcast...

I'd rather save £50 and play those classic Sega games on an emulator or something. £50 can buy me a lot of Cornettos.

Funny you should mention the dreamcast, I always thought if they did want to create a console why wouldn't they just bring back the dreamcast? I would buy the resurrected console if it looked promising.

I saw a rack of those in CVS a few months ago. I don't remember if they were SEGA branded at the time, but they looked exactly like that console.

 

[Miumaru]

Though Id love another Chromehounds, and some more sonic arcade games for XBLA, you'd think SEGA would just merge with Nintendo or something.

Jesus, big name companies. Enough with the nostalgia already!
If you keep this up, no one will know what the fuck you're talking about when you refer to "classic games such as...." because it'll be out of the generation. The cult following will be quite literally dead and buried.

More Literally OT: No. Looks cheap and tacky.
BUT If it looked a bit less cheap and tacky, yes. I love SEGA.

 

[TelHybrid]

Looks like something Dr Ashens would review. Cheap tacky crap.

Not interested.

I also highly doubt it's made by SEGA.

 

[FallenJellyDoughnut]

Wait...so it's basically one of those "50 ATARI GAMES IN ONE!!!!" things that come as a joystick you just plug into the TV you can pick up for like fifteen dollars? Except with sega games

It appears so (god I hate those things, I have like 50 of them because my mum mentions to my relatives that I'm a gamer, so they immediately think that these shit, rushed out 2d games are right up my alley! IM 17 NOW JUST GIVE ME MONEY YOU BASTARDS!)

 

[thethingthatlurks]

I'm tempted to make some lowly joke about this being made of fail, but the mere fact that this thing tries to emulate the Wii is enough.
'course, I'm pretty sure this article is bull, but it's still funny...
