Welcome, and a Happy New Year to all our listeners! On this first RetroPod of 2021, James & Dan go back in time to the origins of the XBOX, when SEGA tried their hardest to remain in the hardware game, albeit fleetingly, by hanging onto the coat tails of the new kid on the block from Microsoft.

We go back to the Dreamcast's final days, explore the talks between both companies, SEGA's dreams and Microsoft's denial, before taking you on a journey to the present day to show just why SEGA has had a far larger influence on XBOX, and modern gaming, than many give them credit for.

We hope you enjoy the show, and please subscribe here, on iTunes, Google, or Spotify if you enjoy the show and consider leaving us a rating or review on your preferred listening platform.
