'''Rocket Company''', also known as '''Rocket''' is a company apparently founded on June 19, 1998. <ref>[http://rocketcompany.co.jp/company/index_e.html Company Profile - Rocket Company]</ref>. They are a subsidiary of [[wikipedia:Imagineer (Japanese company)|Imagineer, Co. Ltd]] and currently own the rights to the [[Smilesoft]] games. The individual pages for Smilesoft's games were moved to the [http://www.rocketcompany.co.jp Rocket Company website]. Curiously, the contact information for the Smilesoft website prior to its closure including their address, phone number, and fax number, bank, and clients are identical to details currently hosted on the Rocket Company website. This may suggest that Rocket Company are Smilesoft. <ref>[http://s15.zetaboards.com/Tulunk_Village/topic/6813625/1/ Rocket Company IS Smilesoft - Tulunk Village]</ref> The current president and CEO of Rocket Company is [[Syuhei Iida]], who was also the president of Smilesoft. <ref>[http://www.imagineer.co.jp/corporation/index.html Imagineer Corporate Profile]</ref> Their first game was [[Dino Device 2]], released on December 5, 2003. The majority of Rocket Company's games have been focused on more casual gaming, or have used licensed characters such as [[wikipedia:Thomas the Tank Engine|Thomas the Tank Engine]]. Rocket Company's games have often been themed on edutainment, sports and fitness. They have also games developed games aimed at appealing to a more female audience, such as [[wikipedia:Hello Kitty|Hello Kitty]] and [[wikipedia:Cinnamoroll|Cinnamoroll]] games. | |||
