Should this be reformatted as Sega MultiMedia Studio? I can absolutely imagine SoA being less-than-consistent with capitalization, but all internal material I've seen from this studio has written their name as such. Planning on checking some references and coming back to this, but right now I'm in favor of MultiMedia.
