Established on May 2, 1989, Aisystem Tokyo was involved in the development of video game and computer software, web page editing, and the management of their own information site, Ai-town, among other things. Most notable of the company's video game-related accomplishments were its ports of various Taito games. The company is presumably no longer in business.

'''Aisystem Tokyo''' (株式会社アイシステム東京) was a group company of Aisystem established on May 2, 1989. Its head office was located near its parent company's in Matsudo, Chiba, while the development division was located in Chiyoda, Tokyo (hence the name of the company?).

Aisystem Tokyo logo

Aisystem Tokyo (株式会社アイシステム東京) was a group company of Aisystem established on May 2, 1989. Its head office was located near its parent company's in Matsudo, Chiba, while the development division was located in Chiyoda, Tokyo (hence the name of the company?). [1] [2]

Aisystem Tokyo allegedly went bankrupt around 2005 [3], but Aisystem still exists and continues to operate the Go-Net online igo service and salon.

(We decided to write the name as "Aisystem" long ago, but the company and its parent have written it inconsistently over the years [Ai System, AI-system].)
