Sega is major player on arcade. It doesn't have to be big, what you needed is to keep your name living while also paid salaries for the employees. Sega themselves aware they have several good franchise like Virtua Fighter, Valkyria, Vocaloid and Yakuza; it doesn't make them bad just because they keep silent about it until the opportunity comes.

Nintendo obviously killed it because they planned to do it.

The problem with Nintendo handheld is always that the support didn't last long than, example, Playstation handheld like PSP and PSV.

PSP and PSV have the game support running for average 8 years, which obviously strong. Unlike, example, DS that need to keep releasing new ver. for each three years, to keep all sides on their side. They most likely planned to keep it for themselves so they have Plan B when Switch starts losing favor.
