Aicom was a Japanese video game developer, founded in 1988. The Sammy Corporation website gives 1990 as its first year and says it was a subsidiary of Jaleco.[1] Sammy bought it in 1992.
Its games include The Mafat Conspiracy, Totally Rad and Vice: Project Doom on the Nintendo Entertainment System, Blaster Master Boy for the Game Boy and Pulstar for Neo Geo.
Aicom broke off from Sammy in 1996 and, with funding from SNK, became Yumekobo, producing games mainly for SNK systems.[2]
