Hello everyone. Today, I would like to introduce a game maker that now operates under a different company name. I'm Boss from Retro Video Game Republic.

Hello everyone~!! It's worth introducing such companies in our articles! Let's dig up the classic games they made! I'm Saori from Retro Video Game Republic.

So, let's start! It seems that they developed not only game software but also pachinko in the past. Let's check it out right away!

What is ARUZE?

ARUZE was a game maker that once existed.
Originally founded in 1969 as 'Universal Lease Co., Ltd.', the company initially engaged in selling jukeboxes, which were popular at the time.
In 1971, the company name was changed to 'Universal Co., Ltd.' and started entering the arcade game development and sales business. Later, they focused on developing pachislot and casino machines, changing the name to 'ARUZE' in 1998. They resumed arcade game development and also entered the consumer game market.
In 2009, the name was changed to 'Universal Entertainment Corporation', which now primarily focuses on the pachinko business.

It seems more like a pachislot maker that at one point developed game software rather than originally being a game maker.

Yes! Looking at ARUZE's software lineup, that's the impression I get! It seems that they have released many pachinko games under the current Universal Entertainment.
