Hi-Tech Sega was a chain of arcades in Japan, alongside Club Sega, Hi-Tech Land Sega, Joypolis, Sega Arena, Sega World, and Sega branded game center locations.

They were managed by Genda Sega Entertainment.

The first Hi-Tech Sega location opened in October 1988. Hi-Tech Sega arcades were renamed to GiGO in March 2022.

Renaming of Hi-Tech Sega locations

On November 4, 2020, Genda acquired 85.1% of Sega's share of the stock in Sega Entertainment. The company was renamed Genda Sega Entertainment.

On January 28, 2022, due to losses sustained during the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, Genda purchased the remaining shares and renamed the company Genda GiGO Entertainment.

Beginning on March 9, 2022, and continuing in the following months, all of the Sega-branded arcades in Japan were rebranded as GiGO arcades.
