[[Image:krisjohn-segasc3000.jpg|thumb|Sega SC-3000 and joystick]]The '''SC-3000''' was the computer equivalent of the '''[[SG-1000]]''' [[cartridge (electronics)|cartridge]]-based [[video game console|gaming console]] manufactured by [[Sega]].


{{Redirect category shell|1=
The SC-3000 sold for [[Yen|¥]]29,800 in 1983 and was marketed as a [[home computer|computer for beginners]]. Since games were compatible with both the SC-3000 and SG-1000 and since the SC-3000 was also able to run computer applications, it outsold the SG-1000.

Users were able to create their own [[computer programs|programs]] and [[computer game|game]]s on the machine. The [[speech synthesis|Speech Synthesis Unit]], the [[light pen|Light Pen]], and several other third party accessories were also available.

The '''[[SC-3000H]]''', which originally sold for ¥33,800, was an upgraded version of this system with more [[random-access memory|RAM]] and an upgraded [[computer keyboard|keyboard]] (the original keyboard was of the low-end [[membrane keyboard|membrane]] type), so the upgrade was sorely needed.

The SC-3000 had an extension called the '''[[SF-7000]]'''. The SF-7000 added 64[[kilobyte|KB]] RAM and 8KB [[read-only memory|ROM]], a 3-inch [[floppy disk]] drive, a [[Centronics]] [[parallel port]], and an [[RS232]] [[serial port]].
