[edit] Page move

I moved this article from Amusement Vision, Ltd. to Amusement Vision in accordance with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names). While it should be fairly obvious that the name minus the "Ltd." is in more common usage, a cursory Google offers these results: "amusement vision" -"amusement vision, ltd." (30,800 results) vs. "amusement vision, ltd." (409 results). - Vague | Rant 09:25, May 9, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Daytona USA

Not only does the existing Daytona USA article claim that the game was made by AM2, not AM4, but so does the AM2 logo on certain versions of the Daytona USA machine. I would have gone and just changed it, however the entrys claim that "AM4 was a special research department of SEGA known for the development of arcade games such as Daytona USA (1994)" makes this harder than it needs to be.

Interestingly, the main Sega article also claims AM2 - however, AM4 did develop at least the PC, if not also one of the saturn versions of Daytona USA , and hence this may be where some of the confusion comes from. In any case, I'm erring on the side of caution and not changing the AM2/AM4 entries today (new to wikipedia, paranoid :-p), but if no-one objects I will at some point in the near future, pending a little more research to be sure - particularly since everyone agrees that the game came from Toshihiro Nagoshi, who of course headed AM4 at one time. . -- jj 210.10.237.168 03:40, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
