Missile Command is a 1980 arcade game developed by Atari.

Sega licensed Missile Command for a Japanese audience[1], creating their own cabinets and artwork for the game. Though the game itself is identical to the original Atari production run, Sega's cabinets add an extra "echo speaker", giving an extra effect for the audio. The situation is unclear as Taito also brought the game to the region.

Sega produced stand-up, cocktail and sit-down cabinets, presumably all with the same enhancements.
