About

Founded in 1990, Agenda developed several notable titles in the 1990s, including Dragon Slayer Gaiden: Nemuri no Oukan and Doraemon 2: Animal Wakusei Densetsu. They also created licensed action games like The Amazing Spider-Man: Lethal Foes and sports simulations such as Hatayama Hatch no Pro Yakyuu News Jitsumei Han. The studio became particularly well-known for its billiards titles, including Carom Shot, Carom Shot 2, Backstreet Billiards, and The Billiards.
Operating primarily as a contract developer during the 16-bit and 32-bit eras, the studio established its technical versatility by working across diverse genres. A significant portion of Agenda's legacy is tied to the RPG Tsukuru franchise, under which several of these key releases are categorized, showcasing the studio's ability to adapt complex systems to console hardware.
In the early 1990s, the developer collaborated with major publishers to bring high-profile intellectual properties to handheld and home consoles. For Dragon Slayer Gaiden: Nemuri no Oukan and Doraemon 2: Animal Wakusei Densetsu, Agenda managed the constraints of the Game Boy hardware. Their work on Hatayama Hatch no Pro Yakyuu News Jitsumei Han for the Super Famicom demonstrated an aptitude for sports licensing, which they expanded upon with the action-platformer The Amazing Spiderman: Lethal Foes. This experience transitioned into 3D physics programming for the PlayStation. This technical evolution culminated in their late-90s billiards simulation series, including Carom Shot, Carom Shot 2, Backstreet Billiards, and The Billiards, which utilized early 3D polygonal graphics to simulate realistic ball physics, establishing a niche expertise that defined the studio's output at the turn of the century.
