About this project



From 1977 to 2008, Banpresto produced a total of [PUT NUMBER HERE WHEN DONE, YA BUM!] video games. That's a lot of games! Like its parent Bandai, Banpresto published more games than it developed, though in most cases Banpresto came up with the idea, gameplay structure, characters, etc. and then had the actual development and programming outsourced. So at the end of the day, these are still considered Banpresto games, even if the actual development and technical stuff wasn't done by them. This is a complete table of all video games published by Banpresto throughout the years, divided into three categories: console, arcade, and handheld (mobile games are part of the last category). Each game list has its title, platform, release date, developer, and genre. At some point I'd like to make the tables sortable by these traits so that it's easier to find a specific game, but for now you're gonna have to scroll through this list to find the game you're looking for. CTRL+F is your friend here.


This list does not include games published under the Banpresto name after March 31, 2008. All games released under the Banpresto brand beyond that were by Namco Bandai Games and not Banpresto; they just chose to release them under the Banpresto name due to its name recognition and value. If you wanna know about those games, Wikipedia is where you outta look. This list is also very incomplete, so please be patient! Hopefully this will get done soon...


UPDATE 2021.7.1: Good news! Because Wikipedia has no information on Namco Bandai titles released under the Banpresto name, I've assembled a list myself. Enjoy.
