100,000 units in a year?! Is this some kind of joke?

I don't even know ONE person that would want to buy this, and a lot of them are hardcore Eva fans.

How about selling some games that are good there Sega or having a clue what your doing. That would be great. Sega is like the ultimate company for losing any sort of touch with how the industry works and how to not piss off fans with crappy game after crappy game (sometimes worse than what some Doujin Companies are capable of with their limited budgets and development teams), yet they only seem to end up with more games and production power. Don't tell me the Video Game Industry is turning into Hollywood now.

Hate to admit it, but you're right. Look at what the BEST section of SEGA, the Sonic Team, just came up with, Sonic and the Secret Rings for the Wii. If you've not seen ANN's review on it, the game got straight F's. How the heck do you get a SONIC game to completely FLUNK?!

Nothing Sega does can mess this up. This is Eva stuff after all, lots of hardcore fans will buy it nomatter what. It could be a box of rocks and fans would still want it aslong as it had a Eva logo on it.

Yeah, I sure wish we had an enhanced 8 Ball back in the day, aye? All we had was to shake it and read "Yes" or "No"... no voices were included. Razz
