Andlabs/Uh er huh hmmm

From Sega Retro

So when did Sega start in house development of video games?

I don't know the situation with Sega/Gremlin. I don't know if anything on "Sega Blockade Hardware" had anything to do with Sega at all.

The VIC Dual — where did the VIC come from? PCB shots? Promotion only called it DUAL. VIC Tokai? They started around the time the earliest VIC Dual games came out, and those were all Gremlin too. VIC Tokai's games with Seibu lease were done dba Graphic Techno EW

http://gdri.smspower.org/wiki/index.php/Interview:Shouichi_Yoshikawa
VIC Tokai and Seibu Lease worked together since the days of the Famicom. I think it was Aigiina no Yogen [FC] where the VIC Tokai name was first used. Before that, Graphic Techno EW was used. I believe that Sega's Calorie-kun [vs. Moguranian, AC] was released with the Graphic Techno EW name.

Aigiina no Yogen was apparently 1986. Of course "since the days of the Famicom" could mean ... they used the mane before?

Could we use the SG-1000 games to find out when were Sega starting in house video game development? I doubt. The first three titles on the SG-1000 were N-Sub, Safari Hunt, and Borderline — and we know they were all outsourced to Compile... or one of the various companies that merged into them

  • Think Soft (Bee & Flower)
  • Programmers-3 (E.I.)
  • Nisso (Hustle Chumy MSX)

Or one not listed here. Or they could have been Compile but after the merger and we don't know because we don't have date information (except year), though on older Compile Game History pages (before they split the pages by console) Bee & Flower was listed earliest (last), followed by the three SG-1000 games.

Zaxxon was outsourced to Ikegami Tsushiniki, most known for doing Donkey Kong for Nintendo. It has their graphic symbol in VRAM and I highly doubt it's just a coincidence... of course we (I) could do code comparisons =P (What is a coincidence? They did Congo Bongo.)

part 2

from MAME svn rev 26154 (latest bleeding edge at the time); all parent sets released before 1989 with Sega in the manufacturer name

present hypothesis: either buck rogers or super locomotive was the first to be internally developed by the japanese side of sega

Squirrel's answers

My understanding is that Sega set up a Japanese software R&D department in 1983. Just the one. It was split up into bits in 1984, and again in 1988, and AM1/AM2/AM3/AM4 etc turned up in 1990.

SG-1000 games like Girl's Garden, Flicky and Doki Doki Penguin Land are in-house Sega stuff. So definitely producing their own console games by 1984.

There was always an arcade R&D department working on things in Japan (this stretches back to 1951 or 1960 or whatever). I believe Man T.T. is explicitly mentioned on the archived AM4/Mecahtronics website, so they were definitely making discrete logic games in the 70s (this might count as a list).

The older electro-mechanical stuff is entirely's Sega's. Designed (and built?) in Japan, sold around the world through various distributors. Same with pinball.

Blockade, Comotion, Hustle and World Cup were made by Gremlin in 1976/1977. I don't think they have anything to do with Sega. In fact I imagine Gremlin stopped producing games entirely after they were bought by Sega and started doing cabinets by 1978/1979, (i.e. the ROMs are programmed in Japan, the cabinets are built in the US). Sega starts to actually get mentioned in 1979. Chances are Gremlin never made a game in colour (though hacked things like Gee Bee to display the Gremlin name).

I don't know where the VIC comes from, but I'm equally not sure it's just called "DUAL hardware" or something like that either. I think Dual was a specific type of cabinet which let you stick two games together (Invinco, Head-On, Deep Scan, Head-On 2 etc.) - the hardware itself probably doesn't have a name. The Dual cabinet was probably made by Gremlin exclusively for US audiences.

My guess is that Sega obtained licenses from various companies like Konami to distribute products (e.g. Frogger) in overseas markets - Gremlin built and marketed US cabinets on behalf of Sega. And at some point Sega crushed the Gremlin brand and started taking all the credit themselves.

partial reply for now: not sure about the Gremlin stopping software dev thing; Digger was definitely done in the US (there's a message near the end of the ROM) - Andlabs (talk) 00:50, 15 November 2013 (CST)

Hustle and Safari (that's 1977 Safari, not this electro mechanical one) were sold in Japan by Taito.

either way I'm not seeing any evidence to suggest these two were ever touched by Sega.

Blasto and Hustle were brought to the TI-99/4A in 1980 by Milton Bradley (and re-released in 1982 by Texas Instruments themselves). No mention of Sega or Gremlin (or Taito) there either.

Blockade was definitely Gremlin's [1].

I... don't think Super Space Attack actually exists. I think it might be Space Attack with a different name, as opposed to a "sequel".

The VIC might be this
