During the end of 1994, Paragon Publishing launched a CD version of the magazine, to be released alongside the normal version, simply title Sega Pro CD. Published separately from Sega Pro, starting in October 1994 with issue 1 through to issue 3. From January 1995 Paragon started releasing both magazine editions with the same issue number sequence carried on from the original Sega Pro (issue 40). Versions with and without the cover CD were available, with a price difference, and those who bought the wrong one could send away their request to get the demo sent to them.
Sega Saturn
By the end of 1995, the magazine content had shifted, inevitably, towards Sega's Saturn and the Master System, Mega Drive and Game Gear all quietly disappeared.
