Sega AM1

Sega Amusement Machine Research and Development Department 1, or Sega AM1 is the first arcade division within Sega. It was first called Team Shinobi as a team within Sega. The team is not visibly credited as such in their own games, but are credited as the original arcade developers of Altered Beast and Golden Axe in those games's Mega Drive ports (which were handled by another team within Sega). Some arcade games do say TEAM SHINOBI in messages hidden in the ROM, however.

Team Shinobi became Sega AM1 at some point during the early 1990s. It mostly contributed to Sega's arcade line-up on their various arcade system boards, with the studio only gaining momentum with home console development with the Dreamcast. In 2000, WOW Entertainment was spun off from AM1.

After the intergration back into Sega as AM1, the studio released the successfull Sangokushi Taisen, probably the studios most successfull arcade game. With dissolvence of AM3, AM1 gained several hit franchises and development assets from AM3, such as the WCCF franchise. Currently AM1 is the biggest arcade division within Sega, with it's own internet presence as R&D1.
