I think they should of relied more on their own Muscle instead of 3rd party developers, not saying they could of been evenly competitive with the PS2 but it could of lasted a few more years, PS2 launching with games like SSX really gave it a boast and the ton of developer support it got, to many titles and to many good titles for Sega to keep up with and then you had the Gamecube and Xbox come along not long after, but if they ported the whole Model 3 and Naomi series to Dreamcast and made the games exclusive and made quality ports of them, then their sales would of been a lot higher.
