I always forget that the DC launched in 98. And people want to put dreamcast as part of this generation? I'd say that Sega made the mistake of releasing two systems in the same generation. 4 years in-between hardware? When they launched first in the generation?

Who could be that crazy? :D (Billy Boy, I'm looking at you)

...anyone know the launch games for the more esoteric systems? Sega Mark III, PC Engine, FM Town's Marty or 3DO perhaps?
