Plus Virtual-On Marz, Shinobi and Nightshade/Kunoichi, Space Channel 5 Special Edition, ports of F355 and Ecco and Crazy Taxi... The PS2 ended up with more Sega games than the Xbox, even before the Xbox was succeeded by the 360.

It's interesting to see what Japanese fans wanted on the Xbox. I've never bought into the "Xbox is Dreamcast 2" stuff for the reason you mention: Sega spread their franchises across all three consoles. Sequels to VF, Bass Fishing and Aero Elite hit the PS2, so why isn't it the DC successor?

Seeing a few versions of the Itagaki translation going around, but none of them have caught that he actually says "So it goes" twice, once in Japanese and once in English, so you know it's the Vonnegut line.

✌️People✌️ are translating the Japanese version as "That's how it is" etc.
