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.

Since 1988, Sega computer games have been sold by ActiveMagic. It is not known whether the company distributed consoles.

After the fall of Socialist Yugoslavia the famiclones began to become popular in the country. The Terminator 2 was the most popular one, modeled on the Sega Mega Drive. 8-bit Pegasus consoles were also very popular.The first information about consoles appeared in 1994 thanks to two companies - DigiTech and Beosoft (who also represented Nintendo in this region) emerged as the two biggest distributors. Sega Mega Drive II , Sega Game Gear , Sega Mega-CD II and Sega Master System II arrive to Serbia and Montenegro.Mega Drive began to become popular. In 1996, sales of Sega Saturn started, however, it was not as popular as the previous console. In 2000, Sega Dreamcast was released.From 2010 to 2015, Computerland was a distributor of Sega in Serbia and Montenegro. Since 2016, Videotop is a distributor of Sega in all former Yugoslavia.^[1]

There were also Sega Mega Drive clones. Most of them, however, were simply famiclons that looked like Sega consoles. Rumors say that in 1996 Power Pegasus appeared. There were also pirate games on the market. They were mainly sold by Beosoft.
