Overview edit · view history

Active Gaming Media is a company specialized in game translation and localization for all consoles and mobile devices (including iPhone).

The company was founded in 2006 by Ibai Ameztoy, previously working at Marvelous Entertainment as manager of the localization department.

Most of AGM's translations are from Japanese to English -as the company is based in Osaka, Japan- but recently the company localized games for the European market (including Marvelous Entertainment's Harvest Moon series).

Since 2009, AGM is also debugging games for various platforms - not only consoles (Harvest Moon, Gyromancer..), but also cellphones (various games for Nokia's s60 phones) and PC (Tartaros Online).

The company runs the Playism publishing label.
