Camelot Software Planning

In 1991 he left the company in 1990 to form Sega CD4, a division of Sega. They changed their name to Sonic! Software Planning, which was formed to create Shining in the Darkness for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis alongside Climax Entertainment. The company would be an important part of Shining franchise, developing all the Shining games released in the 1990s. In 1995, the company changed their name to Camelot Software Planning and officially separated from Sega, but agreed to keep developing the Shining games and not release games for rival systems that would hurt the Shining franchise. In late 1998, Sega began focusing their resources on the Dreamcast, leaving the company with their last scenario for Shining Force III for the Sega Saturn in jeopardy. Camelot wrapped up Shining Force III and formed a partnership with Nintendo.

Since joining Nintendo, Camelot have developed many Mario sports games, mainly sticking to golf and tennis games. They have also developed the Golden Sun series of RPGs.
