To do
- Was Sega City Irvine the first Sega City? Our "happened on this day" section states Irvine was the first Sega City. Which- is actually what I thought as well... But the opening dates on this page list Indianapolis and Cedar Park as opening a month or two earlier. Maybe.... Irvine was the flagship location? Maybe it did open first (some kind of private/non-general-public opening?) Super non-priority but would be nice to figure out which was truly first :)
- Speaking of, Sega City Irvine seemed like it was their flagship location regardless of dates. And I think that's more or less common knowledge (as common as Sega City info can be) but hey, double-check that first.
- Should the venues which later rebranded to GameWorks have their article names moved to their GameWorks titles? Kinda in the same way we name development company articles after their most-recent Sega-relevant names? I think so, but that can be for a little down the line.

so I came across this yesterday whilst on a hunt for something completely different - alongside Mississauga, Canada, there was also at least one Sega City outside of the states in Malaysia, within something called Sunway Pyramid. Initially I thought the few sources I could find were getting it wrong as there is a newer arcade there, but no, everything adds up
acts as if it and Sega Republic were still open (they weren't)
aha - "Super Merge Corporation Sdn. Bhd" - included as a subsidiary in Sega's 1998 annual reports, alongside other amusement operation companies which warrant further investigation[1]
