Hypotheses

most of these match specifically with Chocobo's Dungeon, Puyo Puyo 7, and/or Bomberman Online

  • Blinx (need to check but comes up a few times)
  • Soul of the Samurai (need to check but comes up a few times)
  • Beavis and Butt-Head: Virtual Aho Shoukougun (found looking through all archive.org hand.co.jp files; seems to be part of a site on publisher B-Factory that was on h.a.n.d.'s site for some reason but the archive.org servers keep failing)

more from andlabs:

Maruyama turns up on Universal and Mister Mosquito. I suspect people from Zoom joined h.a.n.d. Both companies are in Sapporo. CRV (talk) 13:17, 10 March 2013 (CET)

3DO

h.a.n.d. published Virtual Puppet Reika, but it was developed by Kuki. Not sure if they're counting that. CRV (talk) 07:41, 3 December 2012 (CST)
