The Aero City (エアロシティ) is a multi-purpose arcade cabinet manufactured by Sega in 1988 as a successor to the City cabinet.
Aero Citys were among the cabinets responsible for the modern look of Japanese arcades during the 1990s and 2000s - no frills, heavily customisable cabinets with a white finish (suggested by some as a way of negating the dark, unappealing perception arcades of the 1980s often had). Functionality wise, it is not too dissimilar from the older City cabinets, though there are number of notable improvements such as the inclusion of a larger 26-inch monitor. Many of the changes were designed to facilitate the then-new Sega System 24 arcade board.
