GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Keep your cards in a holder inspired by Ultra Games, the publishing label that made a smart corporate workaround part of gaming history. Created in 1988 under Konami of America, Ultra helped expand the company’s North American output during a period of annual release limits. By 1992 the label had completed its purpose, leaving behind a compact but memorable collector legacy. An understated desk accessory for game-industry fans, collectors, and professionals.
Ultra Software Corporation was a shell corporation and publishing label created in 1988 as a subsidiary of Konami of America. It was formed for the North American market during an era when a console maker's licensing rules limited a third-party publisher to five NES releases per year. Konami had been releasing more than ten games annually for the Famicom and its disk add-on in Japan, so the Ultra Games label expanded its North American annual library to ten releases. Ultra's first NES title was Metal Gear, released in June 1988. The label initially localized existing software from Japan, then also published work from other companies. Its catalog included console, handheld, IBM PC, and Commodore 64 releases. Following the 1991 North American launch of the Super NES, the annual publishing restriction was relaxed. Ultra consequently lost its purpose, and Konami dropped the label in 1992. Its final releases were Ultra Golf and World Circuit Series, both issued in March 1992. A related European subsidiary, Palcom Software Limited, continued until early 1994.
