There was a project where the next console would have been the Genesis, 32X, and CD in one box with a new name. I don't know if that would work, or if it'd be viewed as something of an in-between generation, like the Turbografx, and people ignore it.

It's probably be easier to develop games for, unlike the Saturn. It's not the only thing that held the Saturn back, but it didn't help.
