ELI5: Why did Sega die so quickly? Their systems often seemed superior to the ones that were out during the time.

Personal thoughts:

* Primary reason that Sega hardware and some games where superior was Sega had excellent Arcade machines. When Arcades died off so did this advantage.
* Hardware strategy all over the place and costly, Genesis had too many add ons that no one would develop for because not enough people had them
* Saturn was a flop
* even though the Dreamcast was a good system it was crushed by the Playstation 2 and Xbox
* Unlike Nintendo who had several first party mega series to keep people purchasing even in slow times, Sega had... Sonic, and we all know that there haven't been very many good Sonic games.
