Hakkeijima Carnival House (八景島カーニバルハウス), formerly Sega World Hakkeijima Carnival House (セガワールド八景島カーニバルハウス), is a former Sega game centre located in the Hakkeijima Sea Paradise aquarium theme park, Yokohama. When opened in May 1993, the centre was a Sega World, and was one of the larger locations to bear the name.
During its first years of operation, it was notably one of the first of Sega's centres to feature medium scale attractions developed by them, chiefly an AS-1 unit and 8-player Virtua Formula; these were filmed by Russian television series Sonic - Super Hedgehog in 1994 for a brief feature on the venue.
At some point during the 2000s, the Sega World branding was dropped, and Sega themselves were no longer operating the venue by 2010, although coin-operated arcade machines still remain in the venue in some capacity to this day.
