Samba de Amigo is a 1999 rhythm game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega for arcades. It later saw a port to the Dreamcast in 2000 and the Wii in 2008. Based primarily on Latin American culture, the game sees players shaking maraca controllers to the beat of a song in order to score points.
A sequel, Samba de Amigo: Party Central, which is focused more on pop music in general, was released in 2023 for Nintendo Switch, the Apple Arcade mobile game subscription service, and Meta Quest virtual reality headsets.
