A nice little piece has been going around in Asia this past day, with Nvidia's Jensen Huang paying tribute to Sega for its $5m bailout back in 1995. Without that money, Nvidia would likely have folded. So in a way we have Sega to thank for where gaming and GPU tech is at today.
Sega holds a special place in my heart….many many years ago, Dreamcast was the first console I had ever wanted to buy and because my parents wouldn't let me, I had tried putting away pocket money for months in a futile attempt to save up for one. 😂 And although they have pulled out of the hardware business, it just feels right to have Sega still around, snug in the corner of a fast changing gaming landscape.
Here's to Sega – for Nvidia, for Saturn, for Dreamcast, and for these many years of silent contributions to our beloved hobby.
