Background

In 1992, Pegasus's console became popular in Poland. It was sold by Bobmark International.Pegasus was a Taiwanese Famicon clone.Changes in Polish law in 1994 prevented the company from issuing another unlicensed clone. The company decided to get along with Sega in distributing their products in Poland.

Beginning

Bobmark created Ages (written in reverse Sega) in 1994 to distribute Sega products nationwide. This process began in 1995.In the summer of 1995 Bobmark took over the distribution responsibilities of Ages. Ages became a company store.Sold consoles:

  • Sega Mega Drive II-(1995-1997)
  • Sega Mega CDII-(1995)
  • Sega Master System II-(1995-1996)
  • Sega Game Gear-(1995-1997)

Problems and end of Bobmark

Power Pegasus

Sega products and especially the main console - Mega Drive weren't popular in Poland. Bobmark has come up with the idea to release the Mega Drive consoles under the famous Pegasus brand.For Christmas 1995 was released Taiwanese Power Pegasus clone. The console was 16-bit and was similar to the Sega Mega Drive I. It was also licensed by Sega. Unfortunately the console wasn't as popular as the company wanted.

On March 1, 1996 Bobmark released the Sega Saturn. Despite its large advertising campaign, the console was not popular. Bobmark in 1998 left the Segi distribution. For 2 years there was no Sega representative in Poland.
