Sega Lindbergh

Manufacturer: Sega

Variants: Yellow, Silver, Red, Red EX, Blue

Release	Date	RRP	Code

The Sega Lindbergh is an arcade platform developed by Sega as a successor to the Sega NAOMI 2 arcade system. It was launched in 2005 and acted as Sega's "primary" arcade system until the release of the Sega RingEdge platform in 2009.

Unlike previous arcade platforms which had either been bespoke systems or based on home console technology, the Lindbergh family (and virtually all of its successors) mirror the architecture seen in standard PCs, with a Intel Pentium 4 as its main CPU and graphics cards supplied by nVidia. Sega had originally planned to use the Microsoft's Xbox 360 as the basis for the arcade board, but is thought to have opted for standard PC hardware as this proved more cost-effective.

According to Sega-AM2 president Hiroshi Kataoka, porting Lindbergh titles (such as Virtua Fighter 5) to Sony's PlayStation 3 was generally easier than porting to Xbox 360, because the Lindbergh and PS3 use a similar GPU. However, unlike prior systems (particualrly the NAOMI), very few Lindbergh games were brought to home platforms.

Variants

There are five variants of Lindbergh, each designated by colour, although the casing design is thought to be much the same across all of them.

Lindbergh Yellow

Yellow is the "standard" Lindbergh system, used for most of Sega's "big" games which do not need special requirements.
