History of Sega in Finland
Official Sega distributor(s): Digital Systems (198x-198x), Sanura Suomi (1989-1990), PCI-Data (1990-1991), Brio (1991-2002), Pan Vision (2003-2014), Koch Media (2014-present)

In the 70s Finland was one of the countries where Sega imported its game machines.

Digital Systems released the SC-3000 in Finland. Sanura Suomi distributed the Sega Master System until around 1990 when PCI-Data took over before the Sega Mega Drive release. However, PCI-Data went bankrupt not long after, leading to Brio taking over Finnish distribution of Sega products from 1991 through its division PlayMix.

In 1996, TCI's technology group got the rights to distribute Sega Channel in the Scandinavian countries. In 1997, ION Finland-the official importer of Sega announced that Sega Channel is available along with 30 games.

From July 1997 ION Finland launched NetLink as the only one in Europe, but it was only a test. The service was in Finnish.

Dreamcast Internet was available from December 2000.

In 2003 in the Scandinavian countries the company Pan Vision became the distributor of Sega. In 2014, the company Koch Media became the sale of games as in most countries of Western Europe.
