Jaleco

Jaleco is a Japanese gaming company. Currently, there are two of the same name, that were previously linked. They are largely inactive, possibly even defunction.

Information
The original Jaleco Ltd was founded in 1974. In 2006, it decided to become a pure holding company by renaming itself Jaleco Holding and splitting its video game operations into a newly created subsidiary that took its former name of Jaleco Ltd. In 2009, Jaleco Holding sold Jaleco Ltd to Game Yarou and subsequently changed its own name to Emcom Holdings.

As a wholly owned subsidiary of Game Yarou, Jaleco Ltd operated independently and continued to trade under the Jaleco name until the bankruptcy of its parent company in 2014. Emcom Holdings quit the video game business in 2009, having branched out to other markets; it was delisted from the JASDAQ in 2013.
