The videogame industry in Mexico is largely unknown, although it began in the mid-1970s and has led to companies like ELPRO, NOVEDADES ELECTRONICAS S.A. with NESA pong consoles created by Mr. Morris Behar considered as the father of videogames in Mexico in that country, based on the pong games of Atari 1972. Also mention to Evoga entertaiment that has collaborated with the development of games for SNK Neo Geo. However, it is also known that, as in South America, the piracy of video games was very abundant with the NES/Famicom, especially in the early 90s.

Yet he received distribution of SEGA consoles by the company DISAM S.A. de C.V. which presumably would be SEGA Mexico in that country obviously being part of the North American region consoles Sega Mega Drive were known as "Genesis" and also the Master System also both NTSC format but due to stiff competition Nintendo in that country the distributor went bankrupt in 1995.The company also released Sega Mega-CD and Sega 32X.
