Ok, so Google just announced their home console called: "The Google Stadia", and what it is, is a console that lets you stream the games much like you stream a movie. That got me thinking of two things that was about SEGA in the past.
Before it was called Stadia, rumors stated that it was gonna be called the Yeti and that SEGA or Ubisoft would be helping out with them for it. This would make sense because one of the only ways that SEGA can re-enter the console market was to team up with a bigger company like Google.
The other one is about Sega Forever, which is the releases of old Sega games onto mobile platforms. SEGA mentioned that they wanted to do something like Netflix's, where they wanted it to be free. Now Netflix is known for streaming movies or shows, and if SEGA mentioned this but for games and Google's Stadia is basically that, then we could be getting some SEGA games onto the platform.
But what do you think? Will SEGA make games for the platform?

I know that there can only be like 3 characters per third party, but here's a idea. If they can ANY more SEGA related characters, who would it be?
I had a idea for a moveset for The Bonanza Bros and NiGHTS, but other characters (Like any Streets Of Rage, etc) can work too!

I want to consider adopting this wiki or discussing receiving administrator privileges, I have many ideas to improve this wiki and have knowledge in CSS code so I can even help visually improve it.
My suggested ideas:
Immediately begin to fix stubs.
Clean up redirects, delete unnecessary articles.
Finish listing all Sega game/product developments.
Clean up, reorganize and modernizes home page.
Modernize and standardize templates.
Create effective series portals.
Strive for more effective SEO optimizations.
Responsive design.
Improve community content.
Finish creating all pre 1980 Sega articles.
If given permission to adopt or admin rights I'll get it all done.

So I took a look around the Sega store and honestly somewhat underwhelmed.
I know Sega's old consoles are no longer in production but I was hoping the very least the Sega Shop had suppliers for old consoles that we can buy at reasonable prices. I'd rather buy from Sega themselves than third-party transactions.
For example, looking to buy a Master System II. Ones I find on eBay that are used but still with packaging are around 150-300 UK£ and thats just too much. In my day the retail price was around £99.
I was also hoping the very least they would have Sega Logistic Service products or official licenced adapters for Sega controllers to be played on PC. You won't believe how difficult it is to find a Sega Saturn USB controller that isn't PlaySega. (Honestly, kind of an insult Sega didn't trust their own hardware company to make their own mini-consoles than resort to AtGames which blundered the marketing and reliability of the Flashback products to rival Nintendo's mini-consoles.)
It would be nice to buy actual Sega consoles from the Sega store than having to buy them from eBay. Sega's really missing out on profit here giving eBay is selling their old tech and they're not getting a penny from it.
That and it makes me feel like a berk not to have realised the coellctors value of consoles growing up in the 90s.
So yeah, it would be nice if the Sega Store actually sold collectors consoles and controllers as well as adaptors for PC use. I can list a few website companies that SLS can collaborate with to make it possible.

There is some consoles out there proposed to Sega such as the Spartan and Oprtation: Razor.
What are your thoughts on it?
Also, if Sega asked to you make a console to get them back into making machines, what would you come up with?

Is there any Sega SG-1000 homebrews?
I don't know why, but SG-1000 homebrewer is quite rare compared to Atari 2600, and Colecovision homebrews.
(PS: SG-1000 have similiar capabilities as Colecovision)

What Sega games you never got the chances to play or own, but would like to have? I would like to play Skies of Arcadia because I enjoy RPGs and never got round to playing it. I also would like to play Phantasy Star Online 2 but I do not own a PlayStation Visa. Apparently the game is for the PC however the game was never released in the west. There has been some mods made for the game to make it possible but I dunno what to do to get the game.
I have played Phantasy Star Online but this was way back before we could afford internet so I was pretty much all alone on the Pioneer II.It would be nice to play a Sega MMO for all Sega fans to enjoy.

I know I haven't done much of anything for Sega Wiki, but I am considering requesting to more directly helping out here.
I haven't got much to bring onto the table, but heres what I have to offer:
I'm an Admin on Sonic News Network, been at it since 2009 and got plenty of experiance under my belt.
Also a wiki-based contributor to SNN. I mostly fiddle with MonoBook. (Your MonoBook skin does need quite some work.) But I do have some experiace with Oasis and can perhaps help with that too. I'm thinking black with thin white square pattern, like Mega Drive box art.)
Recently, nice guys at Wikia's Fandom has been giving a makeover to our wiki (We call it a "spiff"). I'm not entirely sure what the perks, I think mobile apps and a revised discussion system. Honestly I'm not to fond of the new discussion system, but given this wiki's discussion isn't all that use I doubt it's much of a negative thing here. Anyway to go along with it might help attract some more attention to this wiki. Now, I can ask if Fandom is interested in giving Sega Wiki the same treatment, maybe they can even get more publicity for it. However SNN didn't ask for Fandoms help, it was Fandom that offered it and we welcomed it. So I can ask but can't say if they're up for it.
Why do I want to help this wiki? Sure I'm more of a Sonic fan than just Sega, but sometimes I just wanna talk about other stuff relating to Sega that I feel have no real place to talk about it on SNN. Sure I could join the actual Sega forums but I never really feel comfortable joining forums with no one on the inside I know.
I also have an idea for Sega wiki, but I'm not entirely sure how to pull it off let alone best describe it. My idea is the relations between Sega Wiki and other sega franchise wikis be much more than just affiliations. Ideas in mind could be articles here can offer to redirect to affiliate wiki's articles, maybe a special {{page tag}} for it or something if not enough information is granted on the article. Think of it like Miracle on 34th Street where Kris was Mall Santa for Macy's and started directing customers to competitors stores for gifts and products Macy's didn't have. The head of the toy department was angry at this at first but found the customers were more loyal and was generating good publicity goodwill in the store.
Still, this is just an idea. Do not know how the affiliate wiki's will feel of such redirecting. But if somewhat successful would make an interesting network of information passing throughout wikis.
