Hello everyone~! It seems that they are currently inactive and have stopped releasing software, but let's quickly check out what kind of software they have released so far! I'm Saori from Retro Video Game Republic!

KANEKO is a Japanese IT company that used to develop game software and arcade machines.
Established in 1980.
Initially, they developed, manufactured, sold, and exported/imported electronic devices and home medical equipment.
As their business expanded, they also started developing games as a subcontractor for other game companies.
In 1990, they established their own brand “KANEKO” and started developing and releasing arcade and home console games, but they haven't released any new titles since 2000.
Currently, the founding members have retired, and it is unclear what activities they are engaged in now.

So, the software we're introducing today is from the lineup developed until 2000?

Exactly. They also developed arcade games, so the number isn't very large...... but it's a retro game lineup from over 20 years ago, and you can really feel the atmosphere from the packaging!
