Natsume Co, Ltd. (ナツメ株式会社) is a Japanese publisher and developer started in 1987. It's American branch, Natsume Inc., was founded in 1988, and publishes a few Natsume Co, Ltd. created games outside of Japan; it has, however, published games from other developers, such as the Harvest Moon series.

A part of Natsume Co, Ltd. split from it's company and reformed as Atari Inc. (not to be confused with this Atari) in 2002. Atari specializes in hardware developing and manufacturing; specifically Pakuchino. [1]
