"Sega has ruled out making any more Mini consoles, dashing hopes for a Saturn or Dreamcast revival.

The company behind Sonic the Hedgehog has released a number of nostalgia-fuelled Minai consoles based on the Sega Genesis, but has so far stopped short of continuing the trend with Mini versions of 1994’s Saturn or 1998’s Dreamcast, the latter of which was Sega's final console.

Sega fans have over the last few years hoped that the company would continue its Mini range, but in an interview with The Guardian, Sega’s America and Europe CEO Shuji Utsumi said it was looking to the future rather than the past for new products.

I’m not going for the Mini direction,” he said. “It’s not me. I want to embrace modern gamers.”

Then: “We are not a retro company. We really appreciate our legacy, we value it, but at the same time, we want to deliver something new — otherwise we’ll become history. That’s not what we’re aiming for.”"
