The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Sega-16 recently got the chance to speak to someone intimately involved with the Sega Channel, Sega product manager Chris Bergstresser, who also happened to deal with third party publishing agreements. He had a big hand in what was released on the Sega Channel, as well as those games brought directly onto the console via retail. Read our full interview for all the details.
Capitalizing on the market strength of the Genesis console, the Sega Channel seemed to be a no brainer for Sega. Millions of gamers were expected to come flocking to not only the service but the console as well, giving the House of Hedgehog a steady stream of new users with which to further cement and expand their market share. It didn’t quite work out though.
