'''{{wp|Banpresto|Banpresto Co., Ltd.}}''' was a Japanese video game developer, toy manufacturer, and amusement park operator. Founded in 1977 as Hoei International Co., Ltd, it was renamed to Coreland Technology in 1982 and became a contractor company for other developers, such as [[Sega]]. Bandai majority-acquired the company in 1989 and renamed it Banpresto, becoming its arcade division and focusing heavily on character licenses such as Gundam and Sailor Moon. Banpresto is best known for creating the ''Super Robot Wars'' series of tactical RPGs. Banpresto became a wholly-owned subsidiary of [[Bandai Namco Holdings]] in 2006, and the existing company was folded into Bandai Namco Entertainment (then Namco Bandai Games) in 2008. Banpresto's toy and merchandiser game divisions were spun-off into a separate company of the same name, which produced model figures and toys for mechanical prize-winning machines. That new company was folded into Bandai Spirits in 2019, with Banpresto now being used as a brand for Bandai's arcade game prizes.

Banpresto created a variety of arcade games based on the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, some including ''[[Terebi Denwa: Super Mario World]]'' (1992), ''[[Būbū Mario]]'' (1993), ''[[Mario Undōkai]]'' (1993), and ''[[Super Mario Attack]]'' (1996), some of which were redemption games targeted towards children. The company has also produced a wide variety of ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' toys, apparel, household goods and plushes, most of which were produced for Japanese UFO catchers and other merchandiser machines. Some of these toys were released outside Japan by other companies, such as [[PopCo Entertainment]].
