Publisher: Seoulcom
Where is this information sourced from? Perhaps it's from the packaging itself, but what local text indicates that? Also, is the publisher information Seoulcom or Seoul Com?
From the back of the box, located near the bottom is the following Hangul script:
판매원 : 서울콤
제조원 : 회시설리컴
Which translates to:
Distributor: Seoulcom
Manufacturer: HoeSillicom
No information can be found for "HoeSillicom", so it may be that the something is lost in translation thus giving an incorrect name. However, Seoulcom is a known entity in Korea for MSX games.
Google AI provides a description of Seoulcom (one word) as follows:
"Seoulcom (서울컴) was a prominent South Korean distributor and publisher during the 1980s and 1990s. They specialized in hardware, software, and cartridge games for the MSX platform and the Zemmix (a console version of the MSX popular in Korea).
Role in the Korean MSX Market: Distributed MSX computers and hardware systems. Published and sold local Korean versions of popular MSX games, often packaged as cartridge ROM packs for the domestic market."
An advertisement for Seoul Com (two words) shows the Hangul script for the company name that matches the script found on the back of the box for Alpha Roid. Furthermore, the advertisement has images of MSX games of the same style as those in the database. The advertisement can be found at:
