Socialist Yugoslavia
Socialist Yugoslavia did not belong to the Warsaw Pact. A small amount of Sega, Nintendo and Atari games and consoles were sold here. In the 70s Yugoslavia was one of the countries where Sega imported its game machines. The only known company that sold Sega Master System was Comy, which began importing the console from 1990.[1] In 1992 IVC became a distributor and still sold Master System in Bosnia.[2]

During the war they gained popularity of the Famiclones, including Terminator 2 - modeled on the Sega Mega Drive and the Pegasus console.
The war ended in 1995 with the Dayton Agreement. The country was 80% destroyed and the population could not afford to new console. This resulted in an increase in the number of bootlegs, including Sega consoles and games. Rumors say that Power Pegasus appeared in 1996.
