The Sega Pico, also known as Kids Computer Pico, was an electronic toy by Sega. The aim of creating the Pico was to get more young children (specifically, ages 2-8) to use video game systems. It would be the first ever official Sega console to carry an official Nintendo licensed game. The Pico was released in 1993 in Japan and 1994 in America and Europe. In Japan, the system was a huge success and games were produced until 2005. In America and Europe, however, the Pico was less successful and games were produced until late 1996/ early 1997. To celebrate it's 10th anniversary in 2003 in Japan, Sega re-released some of the Pico games from the 1990s. As of April 2005, 3.4 million Pico consoles and 11.2 million software cartridges had been sold.
