They don't seem as comited to their users as Sony and Nintendo do. Maybe I've got the wrong impression from them but by announcing add-ons this early on in Dreamcasts life shows a lack of trust in the ability of their machine, which people pick up on. I think the way they pretty much ditched the Saturn as quickly as possible annoyed a lot of people who owned one and they are the sort of people who bought a PS-X last christmas.

This would have been a total 'no no' a couple of years ago but I think with PC's becoming much more of a household item nowadays that average console owners are not to upset about this. A lot of them probably don't even notice, so long as they can still play with Sonic! Gareth!
