    Um...is it me or is Sega losing a bit of touch with reality? It's half Nintendo DS, half Sony PS controller. They won't explain how it can play older system games which appeared on card, cart, & CD, yet, it will somehow play them. The battery life is small & yet has some decent processing power behind it? That would definitely eat at battery life. I hope Sega knows what they're doing. They have some pretty serious competition to contend with & alot needs to be brought to the table to make this viable. Sega has never been ahead in the portable market...sadly.

    Supposedly this is just a hoax, a rather late April Fools joke. Only thing close to a Sega Handheld coming out is a MP3 player that can play Game Gear games.

    Lol, since when did Sega say they were releasing a new system? I don't believe it, Sega said that they have pulled out of the console market and only develop games now.

    That's true. They did. IF they were creating any form of console now, it would have to be pretty damn good.

    I have full confidence that if sega produced a proper home console again that it would probably be great. Of course, I doubt this will happen and it would certainly be hard to justify the budget for such a machine. Not to mention how hard it would be to get development team support.

    Anyway, this thing looks like a load of shit to be honest.

    Not a chance, sega are starting to do nicely now with home software and the arcades. They're not going to make any more hardware.

    I don't doubt that Sega will one day return to the hardware market... but I don't believe that it is this day. If anything, Sega will most likely kick back this (and perhaps future) generation and do what they do best now that they've returned to profitability and are aquiring new development houses/publishing contracts. At most, they will continue to do what they're doing now... entering into strategic partnerships with other hardware manufacturers to allow compatability to past Sega consoles.

    Feed men, and then ask of them virtue!
