That’s so cool. I’d never heard of it before. Please someone in the homebrew community has to work on this

Astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all.

This is what should've been in Sega 32X's place. Sega Neptune should've served as the Genesis's suped up model while additionally taking on 32X games. Sega should've never just treated the Genesis as just a base for unnecessary add-ons that the Sega CD and Sega 32X became.

I remember hearing a good quote along the lines of 'Peripherals do not sell consoles. By their very nature their sales market is pre-existing console owners."

Plus Yosuke Okunari also said “Sega had devoted much of its game development capabilities to the 32X (and much of its hardware stock, since the 32X used the same chip as the Saturn) during the 1994 year-end sales season.” Which ruined Sega’s capacity to support manufacturing and game development of the Saturn.
