Sega AM6

Sega AM6 Division of Sega Enterprises
Founded: 1991
Defunct: 1999
Merged into: Sega Mechatronics (1999)
Headquarters: Japan

Amusement Machine Research and Development Department #6 (第六AM研究開発部), commonly known as AM R&D #6 or AM6, was a research and development division within Sega. The division was created in 1990 when it spun off from Sega AM4 with the attraction-focused AM5. It similarly specialized in development of one type of amusement machinery, medal games.

Unlike AM4, AM6 developed both hardware and software, notable examples including Royal Ascot. It would also collaborate with other AM divisions, such as AM3 on Bingo Party. With the exception of a select few titles, most of AM6's produce remained largely exclusive to Japan, only seeing occasional exports under the overseas Sega Gaming division during the mid 1990s.

In 1999, AM6 merged with AM4 to become Sega Mechatronics.
