What is the correct way to pronounce SEGA?

"Sugar"

"Sieg heil".

"Segg-Ay"

Wrong.

It's actually pronounced https://cytu..be/r/m4c

>>3338135
Are you stupid or something? They tell you at the start of a bunch of Sega games. Hell, the old Sega commercials even yelled it at you.
>>
>>3338183

Maybe OP speaks english. Vowels are hard to figure out for english-speakers.

Probably the same way you pronounce the 'Sega' in Segata Sanchiro, seeing as he's a SEGA mascot.
>>
>>3338223

And how do you pronounce Segata Sanchiro?

Suh-Aeh-Guh-Ah-Tuh Suewyn-Chaie-Roo?

And how do you pronounce Sega? same thing.

My uncle always called it "the black Nintendo".

I'm sorry to hear that, anon.

Probably the way they say it in the jingle, following Japanese pronunciation. Seems pretty straight forward to me.
>>
it's say-gah. jesus are you people fucking retarded?
>>
How do you pronounce 'meme'?
>>
It's the the same pronunciation as the games you retards.

Sayyyyyyy-guhhhhh

Why do pronunciation, PAL, etc. threads always crop up after an Australia-kun thread takes off?

Are you that salty over losing an argument to him?
>>
>>3338135
Seh-ga.

Service Games. Se-Ga. Seh-ga.

How is this even a question? Sega of Japan themselves cleared up any possible doubt by vocalizing it decades ago.

Or maybe people just want to make fun of him

I like how the people triggered by Australia have become the bigger shitposters than the person they complain about.
>>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yw-FCACT6hk
>>
>>3339348

Eh... nah I don't think there's a worse shitposter out there than Australia-kun, at least on /vr/.
>>
>>3339364
There's maybe one bait thread by him every few weeks, if that.

Meanwhile the Australia-kun strawman gets thrown around at least once a day in any random thread on /vr/, hell, even /v/ is picking up on it.
>>
>>3339375

>There's maybe one bait thread by him every few weeks, if that.

how do you know?

>even /v/ is picking up on it.

How do you know?

Anyway, how do YOU pronounce Sega?

>Australia-kun strawman

It's not a strawman if the shitposter is real.

It's like saying Lancedjack was a strawman. Not that australia-kun even comes close to the legendary Lancedjack, but still.

Australia really should use a tripcode. That way people who aren't interested on his shitposting can filter him, and people who have fun shitposting with him can have even more fun.

Because I'm in the secret IRC channel and can see everyone's hostname in their 4chan posts, of course.

I didn't know who that is but I just looked it up and google retrieved this image.

Holy shit, it's like it's actually the /v/ version of australia-kun.
>>
>>3339461
Calling people Australia because you suspect them to be him because you spend too much time analysing post patterns is derailing the discussion.

You must have OCD or something, to care this much about a bogeyman.
>>
>>3339473

Give me an example of people calling anyone Australia-kun when it didn't fit.

Use the archives and search for an example, I'll be waiting.

We're laughing at you in the secret IRC, australia.

SEE-GA
I LOVE MY SEE-GA MEE-GA DRIVE!

loljk im not retarded

>>3339476
You just did it, again.

I'm not him, by the way.
>>
>>3339482

Well, you were the first one to mention Australia-kun in this thread.

Search for an example of anyone calling someone Australia-kun when it didn't fit, I'll be waiting.

I wouldn't be so sure you aren't australia, who the fuck would want to defend him?
>>
>>3339471

The resemblance is actually uncanny.

I think Australia-kun must be some old /v/ tripfag who got too irrelevant for /v/ and couldn't keep up, so he had to come to a smaller, slower-paced board for him to be relevant again.
>>
>>3339484
I'm not defending him, I'm saying the shitposters that cry australia are just as destructive to the quality of /vr/ as AK's shitposting and need to fuck off.
>>
>>3339501

But show me where anyone called someone Australia-kun when it didn't fit. People call out Australia-kun when he does his usual shitposts.

And in this thread, you were the first one to mention Australia-kun at all, so what are you bitching about?

Not retro, but the Project Diva games do it too.

This is wrong, yes, but it's what virtually everybody calls/called it in Australia thanks to dodgy marketing.

Rhymes with Mega as in Mega Drive, which is the whole reason the word Mega was chosen.
