Hello everyone, when you think of BANDAI...... recently, they might be more associated with toys than games. I'm Boss from Retro Video Game Republic, and I still believe they're a thriving company.
Hello everyone! Absolutely! When I was a child, I had an image that they released many character games, but now they might be more associated with toys? I'm Saori from Retro Video Game Republic, and I associate game production more with BANDAI NAMCO.
I wonder what kind of image you all have of BANDAI's software as you read this article? While I'd love to hear from you, I'd also like to delve into BANDAI's history in this article.

BANDAI CO., LTD. is a manufacturer within the BANDAI NAMCO Group, specializing in product releases.
BANDAI CO., LTD. is the manufacturer responsible for the development and sales of toys, models, and daily necessities within the BANDAI NAMCO Group.
The company was founded in 1950, and at that time, it operated as a toy wholesaler.
Subsequently, they expanded various toy-related businesses and started game software development in the 1980s.

Later, with the expansion of the company, the game software development business was entrusted to Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. around 2006, and BANDAI CO., LTD. focused on toy development and sales from the 2000s.
Currently, they are mainly focusing on expanding gachapon specialty stores throughout Japan, and they are making creative efforts in tourist spots in Japan to entertain not only Japanese but also tourists from abroad with gachapon.
Ah, that's right. Indeed, now we often see these gachapon shops in department stores and tourist spots.
Yes! So, doesn't that mean that game software from BANDAI, which is not currently in the game business, is essentially retro games? Looking at the lineup, it seems typical of BANDAI to have fewer original titles and more character games.
●Especially, here are the anime and game titles for which BANDAI has released software:
