spirit_armorBetween the years of 1997 and 1998, the Sega Saturn had its own mascot in Japan. He is, in fact, the greatest mascot that has ever lived, and his various commercials were probably the reason, nay, the sole reason that the Sega Saturn did as well as it did in Japan, even when faced with the stiff competition from its strong competitors. Even with the coming of the Dreamcast, there shall never be another like him.
The following is a half-tribute, half-introduction-with-links to the legend behind the system.
==============================================================================
Name: Segata Sanshiro
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gender: Male
Source: Sega Saturn?
Faction: None
Group: None
Function: The Ultimate Videogame Console Mascot, Ever
Quote: "Youngsters... is there something in your life that you are completely devoted to? Something you sink into so deeply you put your life on the line? You must play Sega Saturn! Play... until your fingers break! Until your fingers break!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Profile: Segata Sanshiro. No one knows where he came from, or when he came into existence. All that is known about him is that he is SEGA's guardian angel, a mountain of a man with the heart of a lion, the frown of a volcano, and a judo flip that can make people explode. Segata Sanshiro is a harsh persona, a vigilante of justice, one who opens up peoples' minds to the wonders of the Sega Saturn by beating them up. But he is a man of accomplishments, and is as tough on himself as he is on others- he has trained for weeks with a ginormous Sega Saturn strapped to his back- and he even has a tender side. Most importantly, Segata Sanshiro is as selfless as he is brutal, and he will throw away his life for the sake, for the will of the console, the devotion to which has given him superhuman powers: YOU MUST PLAY SEGA SATURN.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Skills: Better Than Santa, Beats Up Kids, Makes People Explode, Trains With A Giant Saturn, Use Your Head, Penultimate Baseball Player, His Girlfriend's A Mecha Pilot, Penultimate Soccer Coach, More Serious Than Flirting In Clubs, Dragon Dancer, Knows CPR, Faster Than A Speeding Skater On Ice, Weakness: Zombies, Expert Fish Slicer, Steampunk Rating- YES, Penultimate Goalie, Firm Baseball Patriot, Master And Commander, The End Of An Era... SEGA SATURN SHIROOOOOO~!
==============================================================================
Segata Sanshiro would probably spend his days trying to randomly judo flip the video-gaming characters on the grid who DON'T play Sega Saturn.
And it would be glorious.
