Sega’s Archive Room is Enough to Make You Salivate

The guys over on SEGA’s U.S. blog were recently shown a gamer’s dream come true: a room filled with every SEGA published title ever created. The store room at Sega HQ contain, according to the blog, “just about every game that’s come out on a Sega console in the past and present, as well as a ton of extremely rare or strange peripherals.”
The shelves are packed with games from all the consoles of SEGA past, as well as games from competitor consoles. Each shelf is double packed with games behind games some of which aren’t even shelved and appear stacked from floor to ceiling. In the middle are larger metal drawers one of which contained fifty, maybe sixty Genesis controls pads while others have spindles of SEGA silvers.
Currently the room is being used for storage and archive purposes, but supposedly the goal is to create a place where anyone who works there can rent these games for personal use.
Make you want to work at SEGA doesn’t it? Well, at least for a few days or so.

@UncleBoogie
or maybe it’s the Dev copies and backups from when they were producing the games? Just a thought.
Did you not notice the smiley at the end?
