Sega European Championships 1993

I can assure you guys that this event was televised live in several European tv channels... I watched it on RTP1... I'm not lying... so there must be a record of this event somewhere... ---Asagoth

Edit: so this is Carlos M. Nunes the Portuguese senior winner and Finalist of the SEGA European Challenge 1993 (I guess this is the official name)... the uploader of this youtube video... who also has this channel that helped us (indirectly) with the precious info that he revealed in it some time ago... he says that the event was indeed televised... especially for the British TV... and that the British contestants weared T-Shirts with the UK flag stamped on the front instead of the back like the other participants exactly because of that... he also says that the prize he won in Portugal was just the trip to Austria but in the UK the winners were rewarded with a Mega-CD, a motorcycle and some cash :)...Asagoth

German finalists...

The German finalists were Christopher Sigmund (junior) and Andreas Hugel (senior) ... German magazine "Video Games" reviewed two events in the same page which caused the confusion... Carsten Kafke and Frank Glaser were just finalist of the "German Championships on Jimmy Connors Tennis" ('Deutschen Meisterschaften im Jimmy Connors Tennis) held on September 12, 1993 (8 days after the Sega European Championships 1993) ... no offense...--Asagoth (talk) 21:16, 23 November 2020 (EST)

Meanwhile in Portugal...

Here's the results of the Third Portuguese Sega Championships in 1994, where two guys from my little Town participated in the "junior" group (nope... it wasn't me :)...) ... what is curious here is that "Mega Force" laments the fact that no European Championship was held in that year... because the Sega European Championships 1993 was the third and last competition of its kind... the end of a glorious era ... sniff, sniff :( ...--Asagoth (talk) 18:05, 12 December 2020 (EST)
