Sega Model 2

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Sega Model 2 is an arcade system board released by Sega in 1993. Like the Model 1, it was developed in cooperation with Martin Marietta, and was essentially a continuation of the Model 1 hardware. One of the most noticeable improvements was the presence of texture mapped polygons, as opposed to the flat shading used in Model 1 games.

The Model 2 was a very successful system; much more so than the Model 1. It featured the highest grossing arcade game of all time, Daytona USA.
