The Jupiter Corporation is a Japanese video game developer based in Kyoto. It was established on June 11, 1992.[1] The company developed most games of the Picross series, including its six installments themed to the Super Mario franchise: Mario's Picross, Mario's Super Picross, Picross 2, Picross NP, Club Nintendo Picross (released in 2012 for Japanese Club Nintendo users for Nintendo 3DS),[2] and Club Nintendo Picross+ (released in 2014 for Japanese Club Nintendo Premium users for Nintendo 3DS).[3] Jupiter mostly creates games for Nintendo's handheld consoles. The company is also responsible for various Nintendo-licensed products, including accessories for the Nintendo DS as well as papercrafts.
