We all know about the Sega Mega Drive, Super Nintendo, Atari 2600, Sony PlayStation and other popular consoles of the last 40 odd years of video gaming. But as with any lucrative industry there is always somebody else who wants a piece of the pie. For every great console out there there’s another one that failed and so I thought it would be great to have a look at some of the most obscure examples.

CRKD, and Limited Run Games announced a special Tomb Raider edition of CRKD's popular NEO S, and Nitro Deck+ controller. - IS
In a bold move to revamp its operations and reputation, Embracer Group has announced plans to divide into three distinct entities.
Splits into 3, so 3 times as many middle managers, never a good thing isn’t that what ruined them in the first place ?
Well people complain when they consolidate and there's redundancies. This is the opposite so apparently you can't win.
Honestly huge companies being less huge is a good thing. I think ABK should have done the same thing, then they could have had more than one possible buyer to purchase them. It was really Microsoft or no one how they stood.
Breaking News: "In a Blockbuster move, Asmodee to buy Coffee Stain & Friends and Middle-earth Enterprises & Friends. After merger, new entity to be called Embracer Group. A 1,000 job cuts to be expected after merger."

Quite a few consoles I never knew existed on here!
Makes you wonder what things would be like if one of these caught on.
I remember a couple, cheap crap that seemed to arrive at the wrong time or sometimes wrong generation.
