Sega Again Says It Wants to Bring More Atlus Games to PC

Haruki Satomi : "We haven’t been proactive in releasing ATLUS games on Steam so far. However, the response to the straight port of Persona 4 Golden on PC was far and beyond what we expected.
Therefore, we’d like to continue releasing games from ATLUS’s catalog to various platforms–some of which will be straight ports, some of which will be remasters or remakes."

SEGA 60th Anniversary Special Presentation:
Interview with Masayoshi Kikuchi

We had a lot of issues getting past the planning phase (of Jet Set Radio).
But our bosses at the time were people that allowed the newer staff to work with a great deal of freedom, telling us “don’t worry about your other work, focus on getting a project plan ready for the company planning meetings”.
That took a lot of stress off my back.

The Historia of Maimai

On July 11th, 2012, maimai was released to Japanese gamers at game centers throughout Japan.
The game gained immediate attention thanks in part to its resemblance to a drum style washing machine.
Sega even played up the washing machine joke at the initial location test with jokes on the tagline such as “not a washing machine”, “water does not come out” and at the first location test, there was a “NO WASHING” sign on the machine.
The washing machine manufacturer Sharp even went as far to do a collaboration with Sega for a washing machine themed after maimai

Trivia: SEGA's Shun Nakamura 'Really' Wants to Make Samba de Amigo for the Switch

”When the Wii came out, there was only one Wii Remote, and you had to buy another one. You could still do it, but it's a bit of a hurdle to get over.
The first time I saw the Switch, I thought oh my god - this is it!
You don't have to buy another peripheral, you don't need to buy another controller. I'm really, really interested in that.”
