Panel Title: "SEGA: A Company (Too Far) Ahead of Its Time"

Panel Description:
SEGA was many things, but more than anything, they were always a few steps ahead of where the consumer market actually was. They were practically the antithesis of their conservative rival, Nintendo, reckless and innovative to a fault... They pushed the limits of console gaming with 3-D Glasses, Mega Modem, Lock-On Technology, Sega Channel, Saturn NetLink, PlanetWeb Browser, Online MMORPGs and so much more... Yet the one thing these all have in common is that they came far too early to be appreciated and successful in their time, yet they left ripples throughout the console game industry that can be seen today!
