Jonas, I'm not convinced that the 500 new channels will cause a lot of 3d work to suddenly appear. I mean where's the money going to come from? I tend to think that to fill the channels the quality levels will have to drop significantly and the amount of money available for graphics/animation will be peanuts. However, game development for Sega and Genesis type machines is a much more mature industry with plenty of money being thrown at it. The 32-bit video-game platforms (3DO, Atari Jaguar, and other new ones) are the reason for 3d work being required.
