Also why hldid nintendo go for a different market with the nintendo wii? Can you see another manufacturer coming into the game console market, e.g Apple?
Thanks!
Answer
SEGA dropped out of console manufacturing simply because:
1) Their previous consoles sold so poorly (SEGA CD, SEGA Saturn, SEGA Dreamcast,)
2) The Dreamcast in particular was a pretty decent system that had a VERY big flaw: The discs had NO copyright protection whatsoever which lead to mass pirating. Which caused many developers to pull away from developing games for it. The only companies that did were those who were under contract to do so, this is a big reason why allot of Dreamcast's later games were ported to the PS2 (as they made little revenue on the DC.)
3) The release of the PS2. If anything, it was Sony's console that brought down the final blows. Nintendo had NOTHING to do with it as their own system (the Gamecube) was also suffering.
4) They actually were making more money from games they helped make as a third party developer. In fact they did so well from 99 - 05 that they've become a mainstream developer.
*The Professor* SEGA never went bankrupt (came close though.) What they did was shift from hardware to software development.
The Apple did actually try to release a console called the Pippin in the early 90s.

It failed miserably. They haven't bothered since, plus with the success of the IPOD & IPAD they've felt little need to go there again. And NO, the IPAD is not "like" a console. That's like saying a car is "like" a skateboard, An IPAD has more in common with a laptop than it does with a home console.
Systems in development:
Valve's "Steambox" is looking more and more like reality as recent new confirms that they are indeed making a "steam-like" console.

The ouya - An Android based console. But is unlikely to be a mainstream release.

Nvidia's Project Shield - Android based handheld system ..... looks a bit weird.

Of course the Two big ones:
The XBox 720 (AKA XBox Infinity)

The PS4 (AKA Orbis)

Side Not: I actually loved the Dreamcast and was deeply upset when it was discontinued. A real shame.
Do you think 2012 with really happen? I googled and youtubed it an it made the news in the past.?
Shouldn't the goverment nook planet x or some how make it go somewhere else? The major extinctions in the past happened because they weren't as smart as we are today we have the internet, cars, guns, iphones, and other man made stuff that only a really smart person can make. Shouldn't we be smart enough to save ourselfs from such a bad thing happening like 2012?
Answer
2012 is nothing but BULLSHIT and NONSENSE!
Nothing will happen in 2012 that didn't happen in 2011 and won't happen in 2013. IT IS A SCAM⦠A HOAX⦠Bullshit used to sell books and movie ticket! NOTHING will happen in 2012 that won't happen in 2011 and 2013. Stupid, gullible people will believe anything... This is another Y2K and Bible Code.

The End Is Coming in '2012'?
http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/2012-roland-emmerich.html
Few people have destroyed the world more than Roland Emmerich. In his mega-hit "Independence Day," aliens laid waste to pretty much every metropolitan center on the planet, and in his eco-thriller "The Day After Tomorrow," much of the northern hemisphere finds itself buried under ice. In his third crack at presenting the apocalypse, this fall's "2012," Emmerich taps into the angst of thousands of astrologers, doomsday enthusiasts, and conspiracy theorists who fear that a massive cataclysm will strike the earth on December 21 of that year. Yet unlike previous dates tied to the Earth's expiration, this one has its roots in various sources throughout history including interpretations of the Mayan calendar, astrology, and the ancient Chinese fortune-telling text the "I-Ching."

Ƹ̵̡Ǫ̵́ÌÆ· The Psychology of 'Knowing'
http://www.livescience.com/culture/090319-bad-movie-knowing.html
Though the plot is fictional, this scenario has occurred many times in the real world. In 1997 Michael Drosnin published a best-selling book titled "The Bible Code," in which he claimed that the Bible contained a code (hidden in numbers and letters) accurately predicting past world events. Drosnin's work was later refuted, with critics demonstrating that the "meanings" he found were simply the result of selectively choosing data sets from a vast sea of random letters.
Similar "hidden codes" were found in other books such as "Moby Dick" and "War and Peace," demonstrating that any sizeable text can produce such codes if you look long enough.
In psychology, the tendency for the human mind to find coincidences, patterns, and connections in random data is called apophenia.
Ƹ̵̡Ǫ̵́ÌÆ· Apophenia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apophenia
Apophenia is the experience of seeing patterns or connections in random or meaningless data. The term was coined in 1958 by Klaus Conrad,[1] who defined it as the "unmotivated seeing of connections" accompanied by a "specific experience of an abnormal meaningfulness".
