What we know: In 1990, Sammy established a subsidiary called Nippon Aicom. In 1992, it was absorbed into Sammy. [1] After that, it became independent. It received investment from SNK and Takara and became Yumekobo. [2]

Unfortunately, there is sparse information concerning Aicom prior to 1990, even though it obviously did exist prior to that (the Aicom name appears in Hoops, published in 1988/1989). This has hindered research to some degree and has rendered this list somewhat unreliable.

We are looking at the possibility that Aicom may have splintered into two different companies around 1990: the aforementioned Sammy subsidiary and A.I. Company, Ltd. (also established in 1990) We have yet to substantiate this claim, however.
