  1. I see "home video game machines" and "controllers for game consoles", but it also lists various other stuff. I mean right next to it, there's various toy listings. Also, how do we know this all will come to fruition?

    1. The various stuff is for Amusement Centers like Typical Skeet Ball, Redemption Machines, Toys and Indoor Children's Game Machines.

      Stuff typically found in Chuck E. Cheeses and Dave & Busters.

      How do we know this will come to fruition?

      Did you forget? "SEGA Interactive,Co,Ltd" was filed in the WIPO last November.

      Remember, "66A" is a Madrid. Meaning it will be designated to all parts of the World where the company has jurisdiction in.

    2. Oh yeah, forgot about that.
      Can you just remind me, how do we know the "home video game machines" and "controllers for game consoles" aren't prizes for arcade machines?

      Delete
    3. SEGA is an Arcade company who's ALWAYS given away its OWN exclusive products and toys in its Redemption Machine and UFO Grabbers. They easily could give away SEGA branded home game SKUs and accessories as prizes if they wanted to.

      SEGA only gives away its own licensed products as Arcade Prizes. Nobody else and never NEVER licenses other non Sega branded products.

  2. Ah, thanks for clearing that up. I don't know what you're doing that's impressing the higher ups at Sega, but keep it up, and hope to hear more news about Project Dream soon. Good night!
