[1] was a video game research and development division within Sega. As the name suggests, it was the first "consumer"-specific R&D department created by Sega of Japan, focusing on Mega Drive and Mega-CD software. It is unknown exactly when it was founded, but was done so in the 90's, likely alongside the establishment of several AM divisions. Its known managers are Minoru Kanari in 1992, with section managers Junichi Tsuchiya (design), Hiroyasu Lee (programming) and Yukio Sato (art),

[5] The department was located in the PK Building.[6]

CS1 produced a variety of diverse games, several with outside developers such as Shigeharu Isoda and others for Tougi Ou King Colossus and Bio-Hazard Battle, Minato Giken for Columns III: Revenge of Columns and Compile for Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine. The department's biggest project was Phantasy Star IV: The End of the Millennium, which had a lengthy development period that completely occupied several staff members' focus.[6]

With the approach of the Sega Saturn, CS1 and CS2 were assigned to develop software for the hardware. Early releases mainly relied on co-development with System Sacom, with its internal talent later spawning some of the more populated Saturn-specific franchises, Panzer Dragoon, Victory Goal, Greatest Nine and Clockwork Knight.

It was abolished in 1995 alongside every other separate consumer department and merged into a temporary single department, with a new Sega CS1 established in 1996.
