Sammy Studios

Background
Sammy Studios was originally formed in 2001 as Sammy Entertainment, as an American subsidiary of Sammy. After a year, it was renamed to Sammy Studios, and concentrated on localizations of Japanese video game titles. After Sega merged with Sammy in 2004, it was sold to a management group led by president and CEO John Rowe, and renamed to High Moon Studios in 2005.
