Such a shame Sega’s console journey ended with the Dreamcast, arguably the best console at the time. It really felt like you were playing games of the future. Shenmue is one of my all time favorite gaming experiences.
The Sega genesis added a CD-ROM drive and a processor upgrade called the 32X, so your original console would kind of resemble what he has here.
They were going to package all three things into one, and call it “The Neptune” and it was advertised, but never came out
That’s why when they came out with the Sega Saturn people didn’t really understand what it was, and it was designed to be the ultimate player of 2-D capcom games. Sony knew 3D was the future, and the rest is history
this is not even remotely accurate to suggest one person conceived of and designed these. Hell, the PS1 wasn’t even developed FOR Sony, it was originally a successor to the SNES accessory and was co-developed with Nintendo.
I remember reading that Ken jokingly told Sato to give up, over a friendly drink. He cited Sony’s then advantage in all things media tech including CD-ROM, chip design and sound.
Hideki Sato looking at the saturn probably wondering “Maybe I can fit in another processor?”.
The reason why we don’t need to buy new pc hardware every year. Thanks!
Why does kens head look photoshopped?
These might just be my favourite people on earth.

I worked for both of them! =)
Was a tester on the Genesis and customer support and tip team for the first Playstation
Don’t forget that black dude who invented video game cartridges we all owe him a great debt of gratitude

*Segata Sanshiro! Segata Sanshiro! Sega Saturn shiro!*
Wow, PlayStation really had their aesthetic figured out from the beginning.
Is Sega winning the console war?
These people look like 90% the same person
F
sega was one of the best, but kutaragi holds a special place in my heart
Ok
Ken looking like his actually fought his way into this picture.
For PS4 and PS5 I would put in the groups that designed earlier Xbox consoles instead.
For example the video card and CPU being very similar to PC hardware vs earlier PS consoles with exotic hardware.
Why you gonna do Nintendo dirty like that?
I am so tired of people uploading images that are muted. What if wanted to hear this image? /s
Ken K is Why PlayStation is a competitor in the first place. (Failed Nintendo PlayStation)
Maybe ignorant question but why are these two guys each getting credit for creating an entire game console single-handedly
If you had a snes you also need to thank Ken, he designed the sound chip.

what a shit post.
What’s a Sega?
one is now known for nothing but sonic
the other is trying to compete with disney for owning the world (and also thinks they’re entitled to all of spiderman for some reason)
2D vs 3D.
Grateful for both these guys and everyone that helped shape gaming into what it is today. The PS5 is awesome!
STOP!
