Sega is thought to have consumer divisions every since they began developing for non-arcade systems, however it unknown which games were attached to CS1 during the SG-1000, Sega Master System and Sega Mega Drive era. During 1994, and the Saturn launch, CS1 gained notierity due to it's Panzer Dragoon and Sega Victory Goal games, which were showcases for the Saturn at the time. CS1 had two seperate sub-divisions known as Team Ara which focused on sports related games, and Team Andromeda which produced the Panzer Dragoon games. In 1995, Sega also established a PC division internally, dedicated to porting PC titles. In 2000 all of these divisions came together to establish [[Smilebit]].
