Banpresto

Background
Banpresto (formerly Coreland and Hoei International) was originally formed in 1977 to manufacture arcade cabinets for other companies, and five years later, became a contract company for Sega. In the late 1980s, it established a partnership with Bandai and in 1989, it was renamed to Banpresto to get into the arcade market. The company stopped video game production in 2008 and it was folded into Namco Bandai Games.
