The Japanese edition of Sega Magazine (セガマガジン) was a Sega-branded magazine published by SoftBank which covered several of the company's business interests during the 1996-97 period, including (but not limited to) the Sega Saturn, Model 2 and Model 3 arcade games, and amusement centres such as Joypolis. It was officially licensed by Sega.
