Victor Musical Industries Inc.

Initial software publishing efforts targeted early Japanese home computer systems. The company released the action-puzzle game Mole in 1983, followed by its sequels Mole Mole in 1985 and Mole Mole 2 in 1987. These early titles established the publisher's presence in the domestic PC market before it transitioned to console software.

In 1987, the company published Outlanders, an action-adventure game based on the popular manga of the same name. As the decade progressed, the publisher strengthened its portfolio through partnerships and localization efforts. It brought high-profile Western-developed titles to Japanese audiences, such as the strategy-adventure game Lords Of The Rising Sun in 1989. During this period, the company also managed international distributions, including the North American release of Legendary Axe in 1989. These releases solidified the brand's reputation for delivering diverse genre experiences, spanning action, strategy, and role-playing games, prior to its corporate restructuring.
