Banpresto Co., Ltd.[c] (formerly Coreland Technology Inc.) was a Japanese video game developer and publisher headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo. [...] In addition to video games, Banpresto produced toys, keyrings, apparel, and plastic models. [...] Banpresto was founded by Japanese businessman Yasushi Matsuda as Hoei International on April 30, 1977. [...] Coreland was majority-acquired by Bandai in 1989 following severe financial difficulties and renamed Banpresto, becoming Bandai's arcade game division. [...] It continued producing games until 2008 when it was absorbed by Namco Bandai Games, and its toy and arcade divisions were spun-off into an unrelated company that carried the same name. [...] It also operated amusement facilities across Japan, including Hanayashiki, as well as producing model kits, stuffed toys, and UFO catcher prizes.
