Sega Consumer Research and Development Dept. #5 (Sega CS5) was a video game research and development division within Sega. It was established in 1994 alongside Sega CS4 to deal with a growing number of home consoles to develop for,[1] being made to focus on Sega Game Gear,[3][4]. Its producer was Motoshige Hokoyama.[5]

When it was abolished in 1995, most likely on August 1[6], its development staff switched over to Sega Saturn, PC or arcade development, with several staff transferring to Sega AM2.

CS5 and its games was the focus of a magazine called Game Boy, the precursor to Power Gamer.[7]
