By December 12, 1994, three weeks after launch, Sega had only managed to ship 350, 000 consoles.

Customers perceived the Sega Saturn, Nintendo 64, and the PlayStation as the true next-generation consoles, due to their rich launch titles and 3D graphics.

Despite a highly promoted launch ( including being named Time magazine's " 1994 Product of the Year ") and a host of cutting-edge technologies, the 3DO's high price ( US $ 599 at launch ), limited third-party developer support, and an over-saturated console market prevented the system from achieving success comparable to competitors Sega and Nintendo.

is a 1998 platform video game developed by Sonic Team and released on November 27, 1998, in Japan as one of five launch titles by Sega for the Dreamcast.

Struggling against more commercially popular games, such as Donkey Kong Country in 1994, along with the launch of the PlayStation and Sega Saturn video game consoles, Super Metroid sold poorly in Japan.

Sega was also hurt by a surprise four-month-early U. S. launch of their console.

Panzer Dragoon was one of the few games available at the Sega Saturn's accelerated, surprise launch.

Working on new hardware proved difficult for the young team, and the game ended up missing by a few months the initial deadline given by Sega, which was the Saturn Japanese launch on November 1994.

Sega was also hurt by the plan to have a surprise four month early US launch of their console.

The Sega Saturn was also US $ 100 more expensive than the PlayStation at its launch, and only available at four retailers.

During the run up to the launch of the Dreamcast, Sega began to heavily advertise all its greater products.

Daytona USA was ported to the Sega Saturn as a Western launch title in 1995, and to Windows in 1996.

As a consequence of the Sega Saturn's rushed launch date, Daytona USA's development was severely rushed as a result-had the launch gone to plan, it is likely that the Saturn port would be more faithful to the arcade original, as can be seen by the vastly improved clipping in the Championship Circuit Edition.

* TAMA ( video game ), a PlayStation and Sega Saturn launch game

* Sega releases the Mega-CD as Sega CD ( an add-on for the Sega Genesis ) in North America, almost a year after the equivalent Japanese launch

When the Sony PlayStation and Sega Saturn were released, Victor Ireland met with then-President of SCEA Bernie Stolar to discuss translating and publishing Sony's Japanese launch SRPG Arc the Lad.

Apollo used Saturn family rockets as launch vehicles.

The two newest launch complexes were already being built for the Saturn I and IB rockets at the northernmost end: LC-34 and LC-37.

The NASA designs were conceived as replacements for the upper stages of the Saturn V launch vehicle, but the tests revealed reliability problems, mainly caused by the vibration and heating involved in running the engines at such high thrust levels.

It was both the last launch of an Apollo spacecraft, and the Saturn family of rockets.

Its two major components, the Saturn Workshop and the Apollo Telescope Mount, began their development as separate projects ( the SWS was kludged from the S-IVB stage of the Saturn 1B and Saturn V launch vehicles, the ATM was kludged from an early design for the descent stage of the Apollo Lunar Module ).

In the initial phase of liftoff, the Saturn V launch vehicle was powered by the reaction of liquid oxygen with RP-1.

In early planning for the Apollo Program, it had been assumed that two Saturn V launch vehicles would be used for each lunar mission: one for sending the crew aboard a Lunar Surface Module ( LSM ) to lunar orbit, landing, and returning, and a second for sending an LSM-Truck ( LSM-T ) with all of the equipment, supplies, and transport vehicle for use by the crew while on the surface.

Harrison Storms, the North American designer who was responsible for the X-15 rocket plane, and went on to head the effort to design the Apollo Command / Service Module and Saturn V launch vehicle's second stage was moved by the launch of Sputnik to think of space as being the next step for America.

On the third mission, an additional Apollo / Saturn IB stood by, ready for launch if needed to rescue the crew in orbit.

One problem with this proposal was that it required a dedicated Saturn V launch to fly the station.

After launch, a follow-up mission launched by a Saturn IB would launch additional equipment, including solar panels, an equipment section and docking adapter, and various experiments.

The success of Apollo 8 in December 1968, launched on the third flight of a Saturn V, made it likely that one would be available to launch a dry workshop.

Skylab was launched 14 May 1973 by a Saturn V ( the last launch of such a rocket ) with the upper stage removed, but with the avionics remaining in the same position ( different from the Saturn INT-21 rocket, which could launch payloads not based on the S-IVB ) into a 235-nautical-mile ( 435-km ) orbit.

** Apollo Program: Apollo-Saturn mission 502 ( Apollo 6 ) is launched, as the second and last unmanned test-flight of the Saturn V launch vehicle.

Launch of Apollo 1 was planned for February 21, 1967, when the crew entered the spacecraft on January 27, mounted atop its Saturn IB booster on Launch Pad 34 at Cape Kennedy, for a " plugs-out " test of the spacecraft, which included a rehearsal of the launch countdown procedure.

Columbia was also scheduled to launch the X-38 V-201 Crew Return Vehicle prototype as the next mission after STS-118, until the cancellation of the project in 2002.

* July 29 – The United Kingdom opts out of the Space Race, with the cancellation of its Black Arrow launch vehicle.

For many years, until its cancellation in 2005, All That would launch the careers of many actors and actresses including Kenan Thompson, Amanda Bynes, and Jamie Lynn Spears.

The official reason for the cancellation of The Fulcrum and La Rotonde and the subsequent launch of Id was a lack of student interest in both newspapers ; however, it was during this time that Canada was enveloped in the polarizing events of the October crisis, and many attribute the climate on campus and cancellation of the opposing-language newspapers to these events.

It was supposed to be planned for a possible 2006 or 2007 launch, but with several lawsuits against Lou and his companies ( which resulted in his conviction in 2008 ), as well as the cancellation of the UK version, the proposed US project never went forward.

Before and after its cancellation, the shows in the block were rerun both on Disney Channel ( during the mid-to-late 1990s ) and on Toon Disney ( all of them between the channel's launch in 1998 and 2004, with some remaining until as late as 2008 ).

The cancellation of a Shuttle-Centaur rocket after the loss of Challenger also caused an hiatus that would make it necessary for the United States military to scramble back towards expendables to launch their payloads.

Mishin continued with the N1F project after the cancellation of plans for a manned moon landing in the hope that the booster would be used to launch a large space station comparable to the US Skylab.

After the cancellation of the program the launch pad was never completed.

In 2004, White Knight carried Space Ship One to its successful launch and winning of the Ansari X-Prize, the first attempt by a plane since the X-15 cancellation.

Within months of its launch, A Current Affair was on the other Fox-owned stations and in 1988 the series went into national syndication, where it remained until its cancellation in 1996.

The Site was reincarnated as The Screen Savers less than one year later, hosted by Leo Laporte beginning with the launch in May 1998 of the new cable network ZDTV ( Ziff-Davis Television ), until its cancellation after the takeover by Comcast.

The summit did, however, promise to implement 50 of the Commission's 90 recommendations including: $ 36bn of debt relief in 100 % debt cancellation delivered for 19 countries ; the launch of the UN Central Emergency Response Fund ( CERF ); doubling previous levels of aid for basic education, to remove school fees, and to scale up efforts to boost girls ’ participation and female literacy ; two million additional Africans given antiretroviral treatment for HIV / AIDS ; immunisation programmes which have stopped the transmission of polio everywhere except Nigeria ; training 20, 000 more African peacekeepers ; tightening controls on the trade in small arms ; working more closely with the African Union and its New Partnership for Africa ( Nepad ) programme to make African governments more accountable to their people ; pressing rich nations to ratify the UN Convention on Corruption ; putting in place measures to return cash looted by dictators from Western banks to the legitimate owners ; and using export credits to clamp down on Western companies who pay bribes.

At Marvel Comics, the commonly-used milestone marking the end of the Bronze Age is Secret Wars, although this could be extended to 1986 which saw the cancellation of Defenders and Power Man and Iron Fist, as well as the launch of the New Universe and X-Factor ( extension of the X-Men franchise ).

On January 4, 1970, NASA announced the cancellation of Apollo 20 so that its Saturn V could be used to launch the Skylab space station as a " dry workshop " ( assembled on the ground ), instead of constructing it as a " wet workshop " from a spent upper stage of a Saturn IB launch vehicle.
