Larry was founded in 1988 in Jonia. The company takes its name from basketball player Larry Bird. Larry released video game consoles and video games, originally releasing the NES in 1988. Notably, they released both official and unlicensed games for the NES. Nintendo tried to sue them over this, but failed since the piracy law didn't ban unlicensed games. Larry also released English translations of Japanese games, for example the Bemani games. Their most successful video game system was the PlayStation, but the NES was a close second. The company has become most famous for their "cracktro" intro screens, which appear on every game they release. Larry releases compilations of the intro music on their YouTube channel, with each video gaining around 10,000 views.
