Sega Merges With Pachinko Company Sammy

Posted by timothy on from the such-nice-names dept.

conform writes "The New York Times reported today that Sega Corporation (the Japanese parent company) has merged with Sammy Corp, a vendor of pachinko machines. The Sammy side of things are expected to dominate post-merger operations, and will likely shift Sega operational focuses back to the arcade market. Also, the end of the article notes in passing that SquareSoft has been aquired by rival RPG manufacturer Enix."

    How long does it take you people to goto news.google and find a site that doesn't require registration or giving our personal info? (hint it took me about 5 seconds)

    No, I don't care that you can lie or fill in false info. Linking to such a site helps them justify this behaviour because they use even the junk numbers in their evaluations of "should we keep this annoyingly useless registration around or not".

    Totally offtopic,

    But I am pissed off. I just got the Massive Attack 100th Window, and it has copy protection built-in. EAC can't read it, WTF?

    Play me out, not up. New Jack slang is a dangerous thing to mess with if you're not equipped.
