Actual Entry (non editable)
Sega Mark III (c) 1985 SEGA Enterprises, Ltd. Third iteration of the SG-1000 series of consoles. - TECHNICAL - MODEL SG-1000M3 - TRIVIA - Released on October 20, 1985 (Sunday) in Japan at a retail price of 15,000 Yen. Over one million units were sold in Japan during Mark III's first year. The Mark III was engineered by the same team as the SG-1000, including Hideki Sato and Masami Ishikawa, who had worked on the SG-1000 II and later led development of the Mega Drive. According to Sato, the console was redesigned because of the limitations of the Texas Instruments TMS9918A graphics chip in the SG-1000, which did not have the power for the kinds of games Sega wanted to make. The Mark III's chip was designed in-house, based around the unit in Sega's System 2 arcade system board. No models of the Mark III were released outside of Asia, but the console did form the basis of the Sega Master System which was distributed internationally. - SERIES - 1. SG-1000 (1983) 2. SG-1000 II (1984) 3. Sega Mark III [Model SG-1000M3] (1985) 4. Sega Master System [Model MK-2000] (1987) 5. Mega Drive [Model HAA-2510] (1988) 6. Sega Saturn [Model HST-0001] (1994) 7.
