2nd LogoSega Sports - CLG Wiki (1999-2003)

Logo: Against a black background with a blue light through it, several giant letters (ostensibly "Sega Sports") rapidly fly, massively close up to the camera to the point of obscurity, then fly in the same way downward. After this, "SEGA" in a giant metal font looking nothing whatsoever like the signature logo spins out from the center of the camera. An oblong blue bar (ironically resembling Nintendo's logo in shape) swings below it as "sports", in the same font in white. appears on the bar. The background dilutes blue light as more particles fly past it (including more copies of "Sega Sports" and a pair of black parentheses extends from the main logo. The light dies and the background is black again, and the bar shines once.

FX/SFX: The letters flying, the logo zooming out, the bar swinging, the background, and the shining..

Music/Sounds: Several metallic screeches. There is a variant with sounds arranged differently.

Availability: Appeared on NBA, NHL, Words Series Baseball and NFL game series.
