Ingalls Moranville Advertising (IM) was a US advertising agency.
IM was appointed by Sega to help market the Sega Saturn in May 1996[1], replacing Goodby Silverstein & Partners. The firm is thought to have been a large contributor to Sega's struggles with the Saturn in the US, being a less successful departure from the more up-beat Sega console adverts that started in 1989.
When Sega of America dropped the firm in 1997 in favour of Foote, Cone & Belding, IM sued for breach of contract and were awarded $185,000.
