Sega for all their fuckups at least still has some identity and even zoomers know what Sega is and have some idea of what they WERE famous for (Sonic, bringing arcade gaming at home, being the first company to upset Nintendo). When Sega left the hardware business, people were actually sad because all of their main systems (Master System to Dreamcast) still have games that are timeless to play even now. The only real irredeemable failure (both in terms of profit and worthwhile games) of a system they had was the 32X, an add on.
When Atari left the hardware industry people just shrugged and laughed. The Jaguar was just a failure after a succession of failures (5200, 7800, Lynx, Falcon) that sucked in terms of sales and worthwhile games. Even the one success they had (2600) is only interesting for its history, as even the good games feel prehistoric to anyone born after 1985.
