Why did the Sega Saturn fail THAT hard? Couldn't developers figure out easy ways to get around the Saturn's flaws?

Rephrase whatever you were trying to say without using a qajak or chad meme.

Fixed your post now pay me $2000 bitch.
Saturn had little to no documentation because even Sega didn't understand the hardware. Playstation was based on MIPs which already had plenty of documentation. We had Playstation emulators like Bleem way before a functioning Saturn emulator.
with a lot of hard work they could make the Saturn do what the PS1 did effortlessly
and with a lot of hard work they could make the PS1 do what the N64 did effortlessly
and compared to how much of an overpriced mess it was the Saturn did really well
what was sega thinking? that consumers would instantly get excited over a new console releasing real soon despite there being almost no games?
>sega
>thinking
to this day they're incapable of doing that, for every one good decision they make, they make 10 baffling ones
see the rovio, hyena, tw3 dlc bullshit
>decide they need to invest heavily in their older series
>do they revive Shinobi? or anything with cross appeal?
>Nope. Sakura Wars! Big mega-budget game which flops.
>didn't even try to re-invent it as some real time dating-adventure game, nope still turn based and would only appeal to the japanese
Just baffling. Only Square has worse execs.
>didn't even try to re-invent it as some real time dating-adventure game, nope still turn based and would only appeal to the japanese
Your retarded doesn't even know what the gameplay was, or what the actual issue with that game was.
Also imagine thinking that something hyper generic as Shinobi had any chance of doing better.
They just needed to make the anime tie in not shit
What did they do with Rovio? The aggressive wokeshit was from before Sega brought them wasn't it?
>that consumers would instantly get excited over a new console releasing real soon despite there being almost no games?
How funny, it's exactly what sony did with the ps5.
How times change
sega was a bit of a mess at the time. It's a long story.
Is that the one they released way ahead of schedule which meant there were no games for it?
>Is that the one they released way ahead of schedule which meant there were no games for it?
That's how consoles release nowadays proving that SEGA's problem was being too ahead of its time back then.
I actually brought vroom in the night sky for some fucking reason. Maybe the game could have been good if they didn't rush out something bare minimum for launch
Sega shitting themselves and spoiling their Saturnday marketing plan was the PONR
>develop shitty propietary format that has eight times less space than PS2 discs and is twice as fragile instead of getting DVD license for free thanks to Hitachi
Sega is just terminally retarded
They are the furthest thing from soul, literal mass produced memes.
Don't reply to the attention starved retards.

Boomerjaks are still kind of soulful, most of all the rest is cancer though
>Boomerjaks are still kind of soulful
>Actual fucking proof it being forced to hell and back
>Made everyone here a generation obsessed autist
No.
not to mention the weird product placement fixation on Monster, yet 'shilling' a new game is all gays here screech about.
Weren't they pretty much sabotaged by their American division chief, who then jumped ship to Sony?
Vidya died with sega leaving the hardware space bros
Been downhill ever since

I'm going to tell you the real actual answer:
Sega
>"We're Sega. Genesis was a massive hit and we've established ourselves as a brand name that rivals Nintendo. Saturn will be a success no matter what, developers will flock to it without much coaxing on our part just from our name alone."
Sony
>"Shit, we don't have any games and nobody here can make anything good, not a good look for our first console that's supposed to go toe to toe with Nintendo and Sega."
>"Tony Sony, I need you to go to literally everybody in the game industry and ask them to make some games for us. Show off the specs and give them whatever they need, I don't care if we need to redesign the PSX with different components or if you need to hand them your left nut."
>"Got it boss."
>leaving out the sega cd, 32x which were the main reason for the upcoming Saturn's downfall because people got soured by those expansions
soijaks and chad, giga and normal has been reddit for years.
This.
it's the rageface comics meets reddit 'le' text all over again.
how I sleep knowing Gankereddit seethes about gemposters daily
you could just watch pic related. It goes into a lot of the details on the way things were happening back then.
I mean you say this like the US supported the Master System or the Genesis either OP.
Meanwhile Nintendo: releases the N64 which is better than both of them
No games. The life of a console depends on the amount of popular games it can run. You can release a console more poweful than any existing ones, but if you don't have many popular titles, then it's DoA.
