Sega announces first Pocket PC titles

Sega Mobile has announced its first games for the Pocket PC platform. Consumers in the US and Japan will be able to purchase the games from Sega’s web-site.

The company is offering two game packs, including Action Classics and Leisure Classics. The action pack includes Vampires: Master of Darkness, Halley Wars and a selection of sports and puzzle games. Leisure has Columns, Slider and Super Golf.

Sega announced in 2001 that it would exit the console business and concentrate on developing content for other platforms, including mobile devices. It is working on games for Java, Palm OS, BREW and Microsoft handhelds.

“Expanding our offering to the wireless PC platform is proof of our commitment to provide the best in gaming to all devices,” said Fred Huey, chief operating officer of Sega.com. “Now gamers can play classic Sega games anytime, anywhere.”
