On May 11, 1995, Sega released the [[Sega Saturn]] (with ''[[wikipedia:Virtua Fighter (arcade game)|Virtua Fighter]]'') in the American market, which utilized a 32-bit processor and preceded both the PlayStation and the Nintendo 64. However, poor sales in the West (including the traditional stronghold markets in Europe) led to the console being abandoned.<ref name="ce2.coos-bay.k12.or.us"/> Notable titles include several titles exclusive to the Japanese market, like ''Radiant Silvergun'' and ''Sakura Taisen'', involving fighting games like ''Last Bronx'', rail shooters such as ''Panzer Dragoon'' and ''The House of the Dead'' and a few well regarded RPGs: ''Panzer Dragoon Saga'', ''Grandia'', and ''Shining Force 3''.

In 1997, Sega entered into a short-lived merger with Bandai. However, it was later called off, citing "cultural differences" between the two companies.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Johnston |first=Chris |url=http://www.gamespot.com/articles/sega-bandai-merger-canceled/1100-2466444/ |title=Sega, Bandai Merger Canceled |publisher=[[Wikipedia:GameSpot|GameSpot]] |date=27 May 1997 |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20150716054727/http://www.gamespot.com/articles/sega-bandai-merger-canceled/1100-2466444/ |archivedate=16 July 2015}}</ref> Entertainment fun center GameWorks was founded in 1997 as well as the now defunct [[wikipedia:Sega World|Sega World]] theme parks.
