UPL Corporation ("Universal Play Land") was at the forefront of the Japanese arcade development scene. Though relatively obscure outside of Japan, inside the country they are well known for classics such as Majou no Bouken: Ninja-kun, NOVA2001, Gomola Speed, and Penguin-kun Wars. Many of these are currently available for download on the PlayStation 4 as part of the Arcade Archives series. We spoke to Ryuichi Nishizawa, who was an early employee of the company and worked on four titles, before he left and founded Escape/Westone.
