# SETA Corporation

SETA Corporation was a Japanese computer gaming company, founded on October 1, 1985, and dissolved on February 9, 2009. SETA was headquartered in Kōtō, Tokyo, with a branch in Las Vegas, Nevada.
SETA developed and published games for consoles such as the Nintendo Entertainment System and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It produced games primarily in Japan, but also in North America, focusing on golf and puzzles. SETA is commonly recognized for developing a variety of custom hardware to enhance games for Nintendo consoles, including enhancement chips, a modem, and a bio sensor. It created development tools for Nintendo's consoles. SETA also developed the Aleck 64 arcade system, based on the Nintendo 64 console. Additionally, SETA assisted in the production of the SSV arcade system, collaborating with Sammy and Visco.
In 1999, Aruze became the parent company. SETA withdrew from the game business in 2004 after releasing Legend of Golfer on the GameCube. The company announced its closure in December 2008 due to Japan's declining economic conditions. SETA officially closed on January 23, 2009, with Aruze absorbing the company's assets. It was subsequently liquidated at the Tokyo District Court on May 25, 2009.
