History of Sega in Uruguay
Official Sega distributor(s): Forstar (1992-1994, Barraca Europa (1994-199x), NC Games (200x-2019), Latam Games (2012-present)

From 1992, Tec Toy began working with Forstar to distribute the Sega Master System[1] and Sega Mega Drive[2] in Uruguay for a short period. The collaboration was very short lived and sometimes in 1994, Barraca Europa took over a distribution[3] and continued to distribute 8-bit and 16-bit systems, with new Game Gear, Sega CD and later Sega 32X and Sega Saturn.

While not as widespread of a problem as was the case in Argentina, video game piracy was rife in Uruguay, with unlicensed games being far more common than their official counterparts.

From late 2000s, Sega games are distributed locally by two distributors - Latam Games and NC Games[4][5].
