This.I feel what you saying but at the end of the day the money is made on software, and nobody was buying, games went to 20 dollars, and yes you right about the Nintendo part, the ironic thing is Nintendo partnered with Sony because of the Sega CD, and then backpedaled. So in a Roundabout way the created their own doom
Nintendo willingly told Sony nah we rather still rape publishers with cartridges and the absurd royalties they charged. They 100% created their biggest competitor.
Sega and their shytty management doomed them. It's sad too because the dream cast had heat. Too bad it was easier to pirate than makin toast
