I'm going to say "lack of RPGs" as the closest thing to what I really want to say I guess. IMO the biggest failure was more a matter of marketing. Or lack thereof. SEGA just never could get the hang of playing the game. And I think they knew it and that's kind of why they got out of consolemaking entirely really.

I don't just mean having commercials and such. (Though I must say if they had done stuff like the Segata Sanshiro thing for the DC and carried something similarly silly over here it would have helped. Instead they did kind of the opposite...) I mean stuff like getting publishers to do exclusives, convincing devs to develop for the DC, etc etc. Lack of RPGs was *bad* for the DC, but I'd expand it to say lack of games as a whole too.
