Ultra Games Tough Phone Case
Carry a piece of publishing history with Ultra Games. Created in 1988 as a North American label, Ultra gave its parent company room to release a broader slate of games during a restrictive licensing era. Its run ended in 1992, making the name a compact reminder of changing console business rules, memorable cartridge releases, and collector-focused packaging history. This tough phone case keeps that distinctive game-world chapter close at hand.
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.
