A number of things happened, as shown below


Atari basically quit the console market once the Playstation & Saturn released, completely outclassing the Atari Jaguar. Atari ended up being sold to Hasbro.
Microsoft DOS & Windows killed Fujitsu's FM-Towns, so Fujitsu moved on to something else
NEC PC-FX failed due to lack of 3D Capability, causing NEC to focus on personal computers
Samsung bought out 3DO's console division
SNK's
Neo Geo was a commercial failure, and since arcades were beginning to die off during the late 90s, the company went bankrupt and was bought up by a pachinko company called "Azure" (now called Universal Entertainment) who offered to bail them out but ended up basically stripping the company for parts/IPs to use in pachinko machines. Azure shut down production of SNK's last console which was made prior to their bankruptcy, the Neo Geo Pocket despite the console making a decent profit and actually competing with nintendo's gameboy advance for the handheld market.

Nah, you got it all wrong. It's all because Sony bought Pysgnosis and installed FUD across the console market. Word to @The Mad Titan. :francis:

Yup, this takes the cake for the worst thread of the month.

You finally got a above average game to play and still make threads that don’t make sense.

:wow:
