SBC

The Sega Broadcasting Company, abbreviated as SBC and sometimes even abbreviated as SBS by mistake; is a network completely owned by SegaSammy Holdings and Sega themselves. It is a direct competitor to the Nintendo Broadcasting System. Its headquarters are located in Shinagawa, Tokyo, Japan; as that's where Sega originally started in Japan, along with ones located in North America, and Europe.
== History ==
Sega Broadcasting Company was launched as Sega Channel on December 2, 1983. It was only available in Japan at the time, and was exclusive to the SG-1000; which oddly enough, also was exclusive to Japan. It was then launched in North America in 1988 on the Sega Genesis, since the Master System was deemed bad by the general public. Once again, it was an online service. It was then expanded in 1994 to allow more games to be broadcasted. However, it all came crashing down on May 3, 1998; when Sega announced that Sega Channel would shut down. However, Sega Channel would continue as an actual network. Sega Channel was renamed Sega Broadcasting Company on September 2, 1999; as forward marketing to Sega's upcoming Dreamcast. Since then, SBC has been broadcasting multiple of their own SEGA games. However, they play on Nintendo consoles. SEGA actually discontinued the Sega Dreamcast in November 2001, and ultimately went third-party. However, SBC does unveil new games, like Sonic 4.
