Sun Corporation

Est. 1971Japan

A Japanese company established in 1971 to manufacture and sell electronic equipment that has branched into multiple fields including videogames. The company began working on arcade games in 1978, eventually starting companies in the United States and Europe as they began to work with console games. Sunsoft is a development division of the main company but was later used as a global brand for all their development and publishing efforts. In 1995 they had major finical difficulties that lead to restructuring their businesses and the closure of their international branches while work continued in Japan. The company has since recovered and continues to release games though their main business is in other fields.
