− | '''Sega Amusement Machine Research and Development Department 2''' (popularly known as '''Sega-AM2''' or simply '''AM2''') was a research and development team for the video game company [[Sega]]. Originally known as "Sega Amusement Developing Section 8", AM2 was previously headed up by famed designer [[Yu Suzuki]]. Of Sega's AM teams, AM2 was the best known and would become a major development house for Sega, first creating the late-eighties classics ''After Burner II'', ''Out Run'', and ''Space Harrier'', all of which were monster successes. Later AM2 would go on to create the ''[[Virtua Fighter]]'' and ''Shenmue'' series, as well as Daytona USA, the most successful arcade game of all time.
