10) Launch dates:
a) Testing - Now. Already in HK and Japan at very selected outlets.
b) Official launch - Some say Christmas 2003 in HK and Japan and I guess maybe add a few more weeks, Singapore, for Japanese Version.
c) USA english version launch sometime in late 2004.
Not sure how true all this will be because Segarosso has re-structured and not sure how this will affect Version 3 launch or even development dates. See news:
Sega restructures development teams :: 8-3-2003 :: Matt Smith
Sega has revealed the structure and names of its development studios after its planned reorganization. Under Sega's new studio structure, there will be seven development studios--Hitmaker, Sonic Team, Amusement Vision, Smilebit, Sega-AM2, Wow Works and a new studio named Cinematic Online Games.
Sega Rosso (Sega Rally, NASCAR arcade) will be merged and absorbed into Hitmaker (Virtual On, Crazy Taxi) , and United Game Artists (Rez, Space Channel 5) will be merged and absorbed into Sonic Team (Sonic the Hedgehog, Phantasy Star Online). Smilebit (Jet Set Radio) and Amusement Vision (F-Zero AX, Super Monkey Ball) will not be merging as previously reported, but a part of Smilebit's operations will be transferred to Amusement Vision. Sega-AM2 (Virtua Fighter series, Shenmue series) will stay intact without any changes. Overworks (Shinobi, Sakura Wars) will merge into Wow Entertainment (House of the Dead, Vampire Night) and Wow entertainment will change its studio name to Wow Works. A new company tentatively named Cinematic Online Games will be established. Cinematic Online Games's president will be Yu Suzuki, and 50 employees are scheduled to be present at the studio launch planned for October 1.
Paperwork for the merger will be signed on August 18 and given approval in the stockholders meeting on August 19. The mergers are scheduled to take place later on October 1. Sega does not plan to lay off any employees in the reorganization, meaning that 191 employees will be switching studios in the merger (Sega Rosso: 45 employees, United Game Artists: 40 employees, Overworks: 96 employees). Sega will release more specific details on the studios at a later date.
If you work in a cubicle and/or work for a corporation you know what this means. Some people got fired, some got promoted and others stayed the same but life will go on for the sega team. They will continue to put out games.
Will continue to update. Sorry i cant post any pictures.
