Locomotive Corporation, Ltd. (株式会社ロコモティブ) was a Japanese video game developer founded in May 1987 by Hiroshi Okamoto. The company's output was entirely exclusive to Nintendo consoles, working with the company directly on co-developing the StarTropics series on NES and Super Punch-Out on SNES. After this, they developed several games for the ill-fated Virtual Boy, only half of which were actually released, then transitioned over to the Nintendo 64 with games like AeroGauge and the Choro-Q/Penny Racers series before seemingly disappearing from the industry altogether in the early 2000s.
