Product Development Dept., also called Sega Product Development (SDP) was a video game development division of Sega of America which may have acted as a successor to Sega Technical Institute. Like STI developing Dynamite Deka, SDP is known to have developed Dynamite Deka 2, with its developers having migrated from Sega AM1 or AM3 in Japan. It likely also developed Alien Front and various unreleased games, such as Frog Pond or Geist Force. Some of the department's likely developers also contributed to Air Trix.
At some point the department was disbanded, with its staff either returning to AM1 (by this point WOW Entertainment) in Japan, or remaining in America to work at Sonic Team USA.
