I remember going to Sega World as a kid, I would give anything for it to be restored to it’s, 6 arcade filled floors, former glory.
For those of you like me, this video will get the memories flooding back, granted it’s just a video of the entrance but it does the trick for me.
Anyone else got anymore Sega World videos lurking in the loft? If you do, get it on youtube with funky music like this one!
“A man went to SEGA World, in 1999. Nothing unusual in that, you might think. After all, SEGA still had a bit of non-ruined popularity left over in 1999 and was surfing the wave of Dreamcast. Or paddling near the sewerage outlet of Dreamcast, as it subsequently turned out.
Anyway, Joe went to SEGA World – and took some video of it. The SEGA World of 1999 is now saved forever in the collective Google memory. Joe has even performed a rudimentary ‘edit’ of the footage and added some music! It’s quite an epic piece.”
FROM JOE: “I found some old home video footage of my trip to SEGA World back in 1999. It’s not much but it’s got the entrance way, two Sonic statues and a view outside the building.
According to comments on UK:R this is where the music is from

Ooh, do I win a prize for recognising the Eggman boss theme from Sonic 3D (32 bit version for Saturn and PC)?
I was at the opening of Planet Hollywood, and Sega World before I moved out to the states in 2005. As many of you will also know I wrote up a site visit of what remains of the site – I visited the abandoned top section of SW last year and the dust was a meter thick.
Hello,
One of my friends made a video of Funland in the Trocadero in 1990, this was right before they got the 2 R360 machines and the Galaxy Force super deluxe was brand new. There is lots of footage of the galaxy force. Here is a link to the video on youtube:
