Revision as of 08:42, 20 November 2018
I think it was the right call to remove the duplicate mini-histories of certain Sega products from the Sega page, but I wouldn't bother maintaining a big "History of Sega" page like this - the subject matter is too big.
More detailed history is better suited to the contents of Category:History, or, for specific products, pages like History of the Sega Saturn or whatever.
A rough timeline of important events might be useful, but I'd probably stick that back in the Sega page. -Black Squirrel (talk) 12:02, 27 April 2017 (CDT)
Service Games
Marty Bromley, Dick Stewart, and Ray LaMaire are credited as the founders of Service Games... after an extensive search on magazines of the time I could only associate Irving Bromberg and its son Martin to "Irving Bromberg & Co." their company (Washington Blvd., Los Angeles)... the Brombergs have nothing to do with Service Games...--Asagoth (talk) 03:38, 20 November 2018 (CST)
- Edit:According to Lauran Bromley (daughter of Marty Bromley) after her father and its associates Dick Stewart, Ray LaMaire and David Rosen sold Sega to Gulf + Western, Marty Bromley (at the time aged 50), Dick Stewart and Ray LaMaire (after enjoying 6 months of retirement), went to Spain and started Segasa of Spain... in her words:
"All four of those boys (Bromley, Stewart, LaMaire, and Rosen) were involved with Sega until they sold it in 1968. From what I gather, Ray, Dick, and Dave had more money than they had ever seen, and they were going to retire. My father would have been in his fifties at that point. They got an offer from Gulf + Western and decided to retire, and that lasted all of six months; then three of the boys (Bromley, Stewart, and LaMaire) started Segasa of Spain".
