If you were to look at all of the Sega Consoles History in order you’d find out that Sega was way ahead of their time in terms of graphics, sound and technology. Sega did stumble along the way, making some questionable choices at times. This ultimately lead to why Sega failed in the early 2000s.
Sega was often considered to be the main competitor to the heavyweight Nintendo and put up some incredible runs, even to overtake Nintendo in sales at some point.
Sega is a legendary company that should be brought up during any video game discussion about hardware and software in respect to video game history.

The Sega Pico is Sega’s take on a Fisher Price toy. It’s built so rugged and was meant to be tossed around and take a heavy beating from kids. The Pico folds out like a laptop and comes with built in games. Using the stylus you can navigate around and click the stylus to start up a game. The games combined both books and video games into a single device. The best Sega Pico Game is Sonic the Hedgehog’s Game World where you play as Sonic, Tails or Amy to compete against Egg Head in a carnival themed world. Although the product was clearly marketed to kids, Sega did end up selling 3.4 million Pico consoles worldwide. Clearly the Pico wasn’t a horrible idea it just didn’t resonate with the cooler audience that the Genesis was trying to capture. 6. Sega Pico (1993)
