    If you check Sega's website, their Corporate History says the companies roots date back to 1960. But what if I told you that wasn't the case? Sega's got some skeletons in their closet. Skeletons that include smuggling, fraud, bribery, and tax evasion. So it seems like there's a good reason why Sega's website has their history starting at 1960. BUT WE'RE NOT HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE EASY INFORMATION! We're here to talk about the HARD HITTING PAST of Sega. Join your host, Ryan, as he dives into some sketchy Senate court documents and uncovers the sketchy past of SEGA.

      Ammie Dragon Just because you are upset that Sega gets smeared for being a b-class company with shitty characters (that pfp doesn’t help your case) please do not drag a lofty company such as Nintendo down with it. It only makes Nintendo and Microsoft fans hate them more.

      And shortly after Nintendo released their Wild Gunman electromechanical arcade game in 1975, the company also created an adult version of it where you had to shoot off bits of a women's clothing until she was completely nude. Although this game never made to production, and I'm not sure if the prototype(s) still exist (or if any were built at all).
