  1. WI: Sega Dreamcast was not dropped out of the market early

    Obviously, Sega was going bankrupt partway through the lifetime of the Dreamcast, and if they continued, they would ACTUALLY have gone bankrupt. But let's pretend Sega was not in dire financial status. How would that console war look if Sega Dreamcast was not discontinued and: Microsoft did...

    I have something to say. Did you know that Sega actually wanted Shadow the Hedgehog to stay dead after the ending of Sonic Adventure 2?

    So, what if Gulf & Western sold Sega to Japanese investors.
  9. WI: Microsoft bought SEGA?

    This was a weird idea I got, but what if rather then merge with Sammy, what if Microsoft bought SEGA and thus Sonic and the other SEGA characters became xBox exclusives? Maybe around 2004 this would happen. I’d have no idea what could prompt this, but maybe Sony buying RARE after Microsoft...
