{{sub-stub}}'''{{PAGENAME}}''' (セガ 秋葉原) is a set of Sega-branded arcades in the Akihabara district of Tokyo, Japan. At present it consists of tfour buildings (which are, strictly speaking counted as three separate entities by Sega, despite being within walking distance, and dispute their names), and are collectively the company's flagship indoor game centres in Japan.

This article combines the three venues as Sega's naming schemes have changed over the years, and at least one is seen as an "extension" to another. This does not include [[Akihabara GiGO]], another local arcade owned by Sega, although in it's later life it was called ''Sega Akihabara 2nd''.

The game center originally opened as '''Hi-Tech Land Sega Shintoku''' (ハイテクランド・セガ・シントク) on November 5, 1992, however after the bankruptcy of the building's owner, Shintoku, it became '''Hi-Tech Land Sega Akihabara''' (ハイテクランドセガ 秋葉原) and later '''Club Sega Akihabara''' (クラブ セガ 秋葉原). After a refurbishment, it reopened as an unbranded Sega arcade on March 14, 2012.

Sega Akihabara 1-Goukan (セガ 秋葉原 1号館) is Sega's flagship indoor game centre in Japan. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the district and has acted as a location test for many of Sega's arcade produce.

The game center originally opened as Hi-Tech Land Sega Shintoku (ハイテクランド・セガ・シントク) on November 5, 1992, however after the bankruptcy of the building's owner, Shintoku, it became Hi-Tech Land Sega Akihabara (ハイテクランドセガ 秋葉原) and later Club Sega Akihabara (クラブ セガ 秋葉原). After a refurbishment, it reopened as an unbranded Sega arcade on March 14, 2012.

For years this venue was known simply as Sega Akihabara, despite Sega operating a number of game centers in the region. The building that became Sega Akihabara 3-Goukan was considered to be part of the same complex, though all five (including Akihabara GiGO which became 2, 4 and 5) were within walking distance. Sega numbered the buildings in mid-2017 and now treats them as separate venues.
