BPS was a game manufacturer that once existed in Japan.
Established in 1983 by Henk B. Rogers, who managed multiple large-scale companies including the Tetris Company. Henk B. Rogers is also famous as the author of “The Black Onyx” and its sequel “The Fire Crystal,” Japan's first fantasy computer RPGs in the history of gaming.
They released games for the Famicom, Super Famicom, and next-generation consoles such as the PlayStation and Dreamcast, but gradually downsized their business and dissolved in March 2001.
Wow~!!!! Isn't that an incredible game manufacturer!...... Ah! I know Yoshi's Cookie! I've played it before!
