Sega Amusement Machine Research and Development Department #3, (Sega AM R&D Dept. #3) was a division within Sega of Japan. It was formally established in April 1993, due to an internal reorganization of the arcade development section[1], and existed primarily to create arcade (or "amusement") games.

During its existence, this division was commonly referred to as Sega AM3, being the "third" of several R&D divisions within Sega's Japanese operations. From May 1993 onwards, Hisao Oguchi acted as AM3's general manager[2].

AM3 existed for most of the 1990s until May 1999 when it became Sega Software R&D Dept. 3[3].
