NEC Interchannel was a game maker that particularly focused on producing beautiful girl games.

Although its founding dates back to 1899, it's an old company that has undergone several name changes and shifts in its development business, developing various products. It boasts nearly a century of history and has experienced various periods in Japan, continuing to exist as a long-standing company (or as part of one).

It was proactive in developing its own brands, but also actively involved in porting PC games to home gaming consoles.

In 2008, it underwent its final name change and currently operates as T.Y.Entertainment Inc.

Ah, they also do ports! That's why I saw AIR on the package!

Yes! AIR is famous as a work developed by the game maker (brand) Key! Originally developed for PCs, it was NEC Interchannel who ported it for home consoles!
