Why did they never port it to the 32x or Saturn? This is the best Golden Axe game. Is SEGA stupid?

Golden Axe: Beast Rider launch as standard 60fps Wii game.

I wish the PS3/X360 version had been released as an open-world "sandbox" game in 2009.

I get not porting it to the Saturn but at least the 32X could've had some sort of killer app instead of that mediocre knuckles platformer

It would have interfered with their frankly bizarre decision to turn Golden Axe into a fighting game series.
Out of all of the franchises Sega has absolutely fucked beyond recognition, I think Golden Axe might actually have it the worst. Any and every time they revive it, it's only to slap fans in the face again with something stupid that nobody wanted, and then hold it up as proof that no one cares about the series anymore.

The game probably would have sold a lot better if they just made her classic outfit the default.

Ninja Hack n slashes (Ninja Gaiden, Ninja Spirit, Shinobi) had also lost their popularity and yet SEGA made Shinobi Legions for the Saturn

Yet Capcom released this for the Saturn in 1999

The simple answer to this is yes. Which is why they no longer make consoles. I never played Revenge of Death Adder but it does look like a great beat 'em up game.

Would any of you anons want to see Sega reboot it into an RPG style beat 'em up similar to Dragon's Crown or Guardian Heroes? Whenever they add RPG elements to the genre its usually or maybe always the ones with swords, axes, and magic, etc. So Golden Axe would make sense. Personally I'd be interested in seeing this but the new Golden Axe that Sega is actually making (or commissioning or whatever) looks shitty of course.

I think Golden Axe could've been SEGA's Zelda. It has a nice fantasy lore and Golden Axe Warrior for the Master System is basically a Zelda clone and worked pretty well. Turning it into Action-Adventure and making some OoT-clone for the Saturn instead of a fucking fighting game could've been an interesting way to have the series evolve without losing its essence.

People played Fighting Force. No they didn't lose popularity.
