New Entertainment R&D Dept.
From Sega Retro
This short article is in need of work. You can help Sega Retro by adding to it.
New Entertainment R&D Dept. was a development division within Sega formed after a restructuring of Sega (and Sammy) in 2004. The division was effectively a continuation of Amusement Vision, with the Amusement Vision moniker dropped.
As the name suggests, New Entertainment was responsible for developing brand new products for Sega, specifically those aimed at the consumer (home) market. By far its biggest success in this regard was the release of Yakuza, which went on to spawn a line of sequels.
In 2006 New Entertainment and the Global Entertainment R&D departments were merged and renamed, now falling under a "Consumer R&D" group.
