Hello, everyone! Today, I would like to talk about “G-MODE Corporation,” which has created numerous masterpieces for mobile phones and game consoles. Let's enjoy introducing the characteristics and attractions of this company.

G-MODE is a Japanese IT company that plans, develops, operates, and distributes casual games and online games. Their representative works include the well-known “KUUKIYOMI” series and the “Flyhight” series, providing simple yet profound gaming experiences.

G-MODE develops games for various platforms, including smartphones, the web, Nintendo Switch, and Steam. They are also expanding their business globally to entertain many users. Additionally, they offer services on official carrier websites, providing wide access.

G-MODE's self-developed titles, such as “KUUKIYOMI: Consider It” and the “TORIDAMA” series, are also well-received. These games captivate many fans with their unique concepts and intuitive controls.

They also own the rights to the former game company Data East and are working on the “G-MODE Archives” project to revive their masterpieces. Through Virtual Console and Game Archives, they bring nostalgic games back to life, allowing many gamers to enjoy them.

In the 2000s, G-MODE was a leading manufacturer of games for high-functioning Japanese mobile phones (feature phones), alongside companies like Hudson and Dwango. They held the rights to many popular games such as “Tetris” and produced many hits with their original titles. These games are now ported to the Nintendo Switch as “G-MODE Archives.”

In the early 2010s, as a subsidiary of Applix, they were involved in various entertainment businesses, including the release of package software for animated works, operating free webcomic magazines “COMIC Meteor” and “COMIC Polaris,” and hosting the “G-mode New Comic Award.”

As a pioneer in mobile gaming, G-MODE has produced many masterpieces. Their expansion across various platforms and their commitment to inheriting Data East's legacy have earned them the support of many fans. Let's look forward to G-MODE's new challenges and enjoy their works in the future!
