Distributors of Sega products emerged in former Yugoslav states of Serbia and Montenegro in 1994.
Note: Between 1992 and 2003, Serbia and Montenegro were unified as a single state known as the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY; not to be confused with the earlier Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) which in the 1990s was in the process of breaking up into its pre-communist constituents). From 2003 the state was known as "Serbia and Montenegro", before both halves declared independance from each other in 2006.

First consoles
In the early 90's, the famiclones began to become popular in the country. The Terminator 2 was the most popular one, modeled on the Sega Mega Drive. The Pegasus consoles were also very popular. Even Power Pegasus, the clone of Sega Mega Drive, was sold in 1996.
ActiveMagic
Sega was initially represented by ActiveMagic in 1994, however local distributors were more likely to serve potential customers. DigiTech and Beosoft (who also represented Nintendo in this region) emerged as the two biggest distributors.At the end of the year, they began to sell Sega Mega Drive II and in the next year Sega Game Gear , Sega Mega-CD II and Sega Master System II.Mega Drive began to become popular and probably that is why it was focused on its broad promotion in the following years. Sales of Sega Saturn have been neglected for this reason. The console also reached the country in small quantities.Further history is unknown.
Computerland and Videotop
From 2010 to 2015, Computerland was a distributor of Sega in Serbia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since 2016, Videotop is a distributor of Sega in all former Yugoslavia.
