No section on it supposedly being pulled because it wasn’t. Game was made in 93, allegations made in 94, and the game later installed in venues as late as 1996, and very likely much later too. I’ve heard multiple reliable sources state that Sega’s only official reaction to MJ’s allegations was just a cooling of their relationship, and there was no offical halt to anything beside the tabling of any future projects. And Michael Jackson was also in Megalopolis and that wasn’t pulled. But all conjecture aside, these were still being sold and supported by Sega during and after the allegations.

Now an idea I WILL entertain is the possibility of individual venue managers choosing to pull the game post-allegations, but that’s entirely on an individual basis and won’t be included in the article unless there’s solid evidence of it. Like hearing from the staff themselves, something solid and citable. [[User:CartridgeCulture|CartridgeCulture]] ([[User talk:CartridgeCulture|talk]]) 04:57, 1 April 2021 (EDT)

I don't know how to write stuff in the way these sorts of wiki type of sites require but I thought I should let you folk know that the video footage has been found and digitised so if some nice person here wants to add it to the article. :)  It's a pretty awesome find for fans of Jackson, Sega and video game preservation.

To do

  • Correct title screenshot proportions from here, or just use this image.
  • So for this and all relevant articles: MJ was (largely?) inserted into these games after the fact, and this game was known as just Scramble Training beforehand. Which is obvious in retrospect, but it explains why the MJ bits are entirely separate from the real content.

Research and sources

The video footage has been recovered!

I don't know how to write stuff in the way these sorts of wiki type of sites require but I thought I should let you folk know that the video footage has been found and digitised so if some nice person here wants to add it to the article. :) It's a pretty awesome find for fans of Jackson, Sega and video game preservation.
