There's a lenghty interview with Charles Bellfield of Sega America on Gameweek, in which VP of marketing and communications answers questions about the demise of the Dreamcast, the plans for Saturn games -> PSOne ports, support for Gamecube and the Playstation 2, and just a whole lot more. Good read.

GW: Theoretically, Sega could be a difference maker in the upcoming console wars, depending on what franchises are delivered to each particular platform. Any thoughts?

CB: Let me turn the tables a bit. What do you know about GameCube?

GW: You probably know a lot more than we do; Nintendo is the most quiet company we've ever dealt with. It's scary.

CB: Four words: don't write off Nintendo. A lot of companies have, but Nintendo's got a five billion dollar war chest and a lot of great, original franchises.

that makes me giggle, like a lil' school girl.

I think the major mistake that sega usually makes with it's hardware is that as soon as sales drop, they stop producing or supporting the hardware. They drop it like a hot potato. If they just stuck with it, they could be so much more successful.
