was a Japanese manufacturer of video arcade games that was founded and headquartered in Mitaka-shi, Tokyo, Japan.〔〔〔〔 It was founded by former employees of the company Data East and was named after its founder and owner name Tadashi "TAD" Yokoyama. They are best known for their first video arcade game, the shooting gallery-type ''Cabal'', as well as their second one, the run 'n' gun-style platformer ''Toki'' (known in Japan as ''JuJu Densetsu''). In Japan, Taito, Tecmo and Sammy assisted TAD in distributing their arcade titles, while Fabtek distributed every arcade title of TAD's internationally with permission (who were also known for internationally distributing arcade titles by Seibu Kaihatsu with permission). TAD Corporation also licensed its titles for arcade-to-console porting to other companies such as Ocean Software, Milton Bradley, Rare Ltd., Taito and Sega; however, only ''Cabal'' and ''Toki'' received home ports. After the release of their last two arcade titles both in : the beat 'em up ''Saishu Kakutou Kizoku Legionnaire'', and the run 'n gun ''Heated Barrel''; TAD Corporation quietly abandoned its production on February 5, .〔(Latest Status Info )〕〔(Image Trademark Trademark Application of TAD CORPORATION - Serial Number 74117580 :: Justia Trademarks )〕〔(74117580 - Trademarks411, Trademark Search Made Simple )〕 After ending its business, members were traded to Mitchell Corporation. 16 years later, in October , a new, independently enhanced HD remake of TAD's arcade game ''Toki'' was announced.
