"Pillaging their back catalogue is something Sega like to do quite often, but the results haven't exactly been positive - for every Outrun 2 or Sega Rally there's an a rancid 3D update of Alien Syndrome or Altered Beast. NiGHTS is a funny one - sequels have been rumoured for ages but it has taken Sonic Team eleven long years to get around to it. They've been keeping the spirit of the colourful jester alive though with numerous cameo appearances in the likes of Sonic Pinball Party, Sonic Riders, Phantasy Star Online and Billy Hatcher."
SEGA have brought so many wonderful franchises into the gaming world, one can almost begin to forget the sheer number of them. Despite this, a great many of them are yet to make an appearance on the Xbox One, a place where they would surely be welcomed with open arms.
This list covers some of the most pressing ones, and paints a picture of just how much Microsoft fans are missing out on.
They all deserve another chance on ps4, switch and Xbox one. Sega is actually seeing some profit on the games they have published so they may venture into developing and releasing older IP's. I am looking forward to Sakura Wars and I hope it releases on ps4 and Switch.
Weird article. "Belong" is a strange word to use, and not enough legitimate reasons are given as to why Xbox One in particular and not others.
For those that care not to dredge through 10 pages:
1) Yakuza
2) Daytona USA
3) Initial D
4) Phantasy Star Online
5) House of the Dead
6) Super Monkey Ball
7) Virtua Tennis
8) Persona
9) Panzer Dragoon
10) Nights
Yes it's good to have games on more than one platform so more people can play them but honestly, looking at that list...none of them would do well on the XB1. They'd certainly do better than zero but anyone with any inkling of playing those games wouldn't only own an xbox and thus would probably have already played them on other platforms.
For example, someone who has an interest in Japanese games wouldn't just own an xbox. They would have had to have owned at least one of PS2, PS3, PSP, or Vita at some point.
And of course there will be replies saying they've only owned an xbox and would love to play those games. Well there's not enough of you out there to make it worthwhile it would seem because Sega is in the business of making money. I'm sure they wouldn't deliberately sacrifice making more money just to spite Microsoft and their users.
Just going by VGChartz Yakuza 6 - .32M Yakuza Kiwami - .38M Gravity Rush 2 - .32M etc. so you mean to tell me Xbox wouldn't get anywhere near these numbers if these titles came out for the system? You guys are funny if thats what you call selling than wow
"For those that care not to dredge through 10 pages:"
Thanks. So tired of the "click" era of internet.
Virtua Tennis and House of the Dead and I'd be very happy. I want new light gun games that work with this generation. Tv's should be bright enough now...
I don't know what Super Monkey Ball and Initial D are, but all others games don't start on XB. What this shit site is talking about?
Yakuza would just flop on Xbox One with its heavily Japanese focused eccentricities
Persona even moreso
None of those would sell well on Xbox
Some of them already had some presence on previous Xbox consoles and they didnt sell
"10 Sega Franchises That never should be in the Xbox One cause they don't deserve it"
^^^ Article Title fixed ;)
Im pretry sure Phantasy Star and Panzar Dragoon were already on an Xbox Platform.
First it's they need games, now it's they don't deserve them. You console gamers are a weird ass bunch.
Guns, girls, cars and dreams in week two of the SEGA list.
House of the deads, Panzer dragoons, space harrier, virtua on/Cop and shoot even shenmue.
VR is the perfect platform for every rail shooter. From House of the Dead to Virtua Cop or even Time Crisis, Silent Scope..
They can also bring their racing franchises back, like Scud Race, Daytona, Sega Rally, Crazy Taxi, 18 Wheeler..
So many hidden treasures just waiting to be brought back.
