Virtual On, is a series of video games originally created by SEGA AM3 (later called Hitmaker!) for arcades in the 90’s, later ported for Saturn with Dreamcast, PS2, and X Box 360 sequels. The game series feature mechas designed by Gundam’s legendary Katoki Hajime, fast twin stick mecha shooting combat action, and co-op. To this day the series has a loyal fanbase due to its continuous mecha model releases and love for arcade robot combat. The original first arcade debuted on December 1995 marking 2015 for the 20th Anniversary of the franchise.
