The SEGA Saturn: EVERYTHING You Think You Know Is WRONG.

#SegaSaturn #Sega #RetroGaming #GamingHistory

If there’s one topic that has lined the pockets of YouTubers for over a decade, it’s the commercial failure of the Sega Saturn.

These videos have helped form a narrative around Saturn, where its failure is as much, if not more of a story, rather than focus on what made Saturn so great for those who invested their time and money in the system.

In this video, James “The SEGAHolic” asks you to cast aside your preconceptions, to unlearn what you have learned, and look at what the Saturn did right and why commercial performance is not the only metric for measuring the success of a console; especially one that’s 30 years old this year.

See you on the SEGA side.
