#Sega & Amiga
4 messages in this thread
This may sound off the wall, but I think we should start watching
the sega I think they have their act together and if they ever
decide to go into the home computer market they could be something
to deal with in the future. Do you remember when japan made those
cars that people laughed about, well nobodys laughing anymore.
Did anyone check out their new product the saturn they had some new
games Virtua fighters, Daytona 75 other games by the end of the year
and they looked awesome. They even made a deal with an airline
to use their product, people playing sega games while flying.
now that's creative thinking.
Do you think the emplant board can emulate the saturn?
If so some people at sega will be awfully mad.(wishful thinking)
now what if they decide to hook a device to the saturn to make it a
computer, do you think any of the people who own this would want to run
out and get an ibm.
I think alot of things are going to happen to the computer market
in the next 2 years, CBM may have just been the first one shot
before the real war or wars start.
A REVIEW IN GAMEFAN MAG.
word for word
"One thing GameFan readers might not be aware of is that the UK, and
Europe for that matter, has droves of loyal (and misguided) Commodore
fans. Couple the Amiga name with the so-called glamour of CD ROM and
you have a machine that's currently outselling the Mega CD. So far,
around 80-100,000(that's a hell of a lot more than 3DO) of these shoe
boxes have made it into unfortunate households, but it finally looks like
there might be some decent software on the horizon."
I got a new name for the amiga- Rodney Dangerfield.

Your numbers may be a bit high. Commodore in their 2nd quarter statement
admited sales of the CD-32 had been "poor". All the numbers I've seen floating
around seem awfully inflated.
I vaugly recall the correct number was closer to 30,000 sold.

100,000 would be poor for that machine.
