Namco (known as Namcot in Japan) is a Japanese game developer and publisher. They are best known for their arcade classics such as the Pac-Man series. In 1981, Masanobu "Évezoō End" Endō joined and later formed a division of Namco called Game Studio. When they first started developing NES titles, the company did not yet have a division in the United States. Therefore, they licensed their games from Tengen, an American company which made unlicensed video games for the Nintendo NES.
