I remember when I was discussing this before and it ended up with a bit of a debate on whether the "Sands of Destruction" anime (the most recent Sega-sponsored one at the time of the debate) deserved an article. There's probably a buncha other Sega-sponsored TV programs that may have flown under the radar, and we'd probably have to dig into 80's and 90's anime to carefully check for that sort of thing in the cases where it isn't really obvious.
I'm actually slowly going through SEGA anime and making episode summaries for them. I've done
Hi-sCoool! SeHa Girls already and World Destruction/Sands of Destruction is the next one I'm doing.

There's also Kouchuu Ouja Mushiking and Dinosaur King which are both big franchises with anime series' which have virtually no representation on Sega Retro. It's all about encouraging someone to step up to the plate and tackle these things. That being said there are some very strange things that I honestly don't know what to do with - there's a small handful of TV shows and films which Sega sold on VHS, like
this one, which dates back to the 1940s, I.e. before "Sega" even existed.
I think the very first anime Sega was involved in was
Zillion... but it doesn't look as if Sega is mentioned at all in any recent DVD release of this show, so I'm not sure how integral they were aside from producing merchandise and having Opa-Opa in there.
I do remember seeing Segas name on the Crying Freeman OVAs, which are also quite old (88 to 94 according to wiki).

One day you'll heed my calls to arms.

"Race ni Deyou yo! Ken-chan to Pepe Boku no Kuruma de Daibouken" (レースにでようよ! ケンちゃんとペペ ぼくのクルマで大ぼうけん)
This needs a "Drive Pico" accessory, and there's a bundle out there that combines the two... but was this ever sold separately? Bundled Pico games don't usually have boxes with fancy cover art and barcodes.
There's also two different Drive Pico accessories - aesthetically different, but are they functionally the same?
I can offer an unfortunate looking Pico Mouse in return for answers:

Looks like every single Pico game has a page on Sega Retro now (save for some Korean ones?). Make them better!

I believe we're the first website to ever accomplish this task. The total currently stands at 251.

Christ I must have been tired the other day - I came across that auction and just assumed "Japanese". Even though it's quite clearly not Japanese.
Nice find!

Despite being listed as Japanese the Pico serial number ends in 16, which according to the wiki is the region code for Taiwan.
