New UFO Catcher (ニューUFOキャッチャー) is a crane game released by Sega in 1991.
New UFO Catcher is the "fourth generation" UFO Catcher to be produced by Sega, and is arguably one of the more iconic machines of its type. Prior UFO Catchers, UFO Catcher, UFO Catcher DX and UFO Catcher DX II are thought to have been recalled due to safety concerns, and the popularity of this model during the early 1990s means this is one of the more common UFO Catchers to be produced by the company.
New UFO Catcher is operated in much the same way as older models, however the "tank" is much larger, putting a greater emphasis on prizes. The edges have also been rounded off and the cabinet made more sturdy. It also plays music - a selection of level tracks from the original Sonic the Hedgehog.
