Hello from me, and the edition this week is a bit late due to the dreaded term we high schoolers call “Research Paper”. In any case, here is the news:
FGN Online has reported this morning that Shoichiro Irimajiri could resign as president of Sega Enterprises in order to take responsibility for poor DC performance. If this happened, CSK president Isao Okawa would take over, and Irimajiri would become vice chairman of Sega, heading up development for the next Sega system. I will bring you more information as it develops.
Also, Simplenet has either been bought or merged with Yahoo!, and now several Sonic sites on Simplenet could be critically affected. The maxmimum amount of space allotted under the new paid plans is now 250 megabytes, instead of unlimited space. Sites such as Team Artail, and SonicUnderground.Net could be impacted. I will keep track of the situation for you as this could spark a debate on previous Terms of Service policies that Simplenet had before the change.
And finally, on a better note, The Dreamcast Technical Pages has moved to a better location, at www.segatech.com. Now, much more space can be devoted to their all important message board.
And that is it from me; look for the next SHQ RA News either later in the day or Tuesday.
