Agetec

Agetec Inc. ("ASCII Game Entertainment Technology") was an American video game publishing company that was best known for bringing Japanese titles to the United States. The company was formed through ASCII Corporation, spinning off their American distribution subsidiary as an independent corporation in 1998, and became a standalone publisher one year later.

Notable games published by Agetec include R-Type Delta, Armored Core series, and the King's Field series, as well as the "designer series" RPG Maker and Fighter Maker. Other titles Magic Pengel and Cookie & Cream, the best selling fishing titles Bass Landing and Fisherman's Bass Club, Disaster Report and its sequel, Raw Danger!. Their last published title was Touch Battle Ninja for the Nintendo 3DS, released in 2014. Around approximately May 2018, all Agetec titles for Nintendo platforms were delisted the Nintendo eShop in North America. Also around this time, their web site became a "server default" page. These events indicate the company has quietly become defunct.
