June 3rd, 2020 – Sega Marks 60 Years Of Gaming

[Arcade Heroes]

60 years ago today, Sega was formed by a trio of partners looking to supply amusement needs to other businesses in Japan. “The rest is history” as they say, and to celebrate the people of Sega and their creations today, we’ve got this post…plus a little tribute video that I put together:

Sega has setup a special 60th anniversary website (default is Japanese, but there is an English switch) to promote the many aspects of the company; They also are doing a limited time “Earth UFO Catcher” AR game that you can play with your smart phone; And there was the Game Gear Micro announcement that was a little bit of a surprise.
They also have launched this far more professional trailer that covers their “group mission:”

For some previous online celebrations:
Sega’s Wonderful Simulation Games Over The Years
Sega Turns 55 – Let’s Remember Their Electromechanical Games
Fans Celebrate 59 years of Sega
I’ll end this quick post with the same question that I posited on social media: What is your favorite Sega arcade game?
