Project DIVA Arcade Future Tone To Feature New Sega Arcade Hardware “Nu”
I know for some Sega fans, hearing new hardware and Sega in a sentence may sound like link trolling. We’re not here to bait with fantasies of a Dreamcast 2 but in the world of arcades, Sega still needs something to power their arcade games with, topped off with fancy names for the configurations »
