Andamiro

Andamiro at a Glance

Andamiro is a South Korean publisher founded in 1992 that has built its reputation on arcade hardware and music games. The company currently operates under the leadership of Yong-Hwan Kim and focuses heavily on manufacturing new parts for arcade consoles alongside developing software. Their portfolio on PlayPile contains 15 titles, with the vast majority appearing as either a publisher or developer for arcade machines. Only one game listed is available on PC, indicating a strict adherence to physical cabinet formats over home systems. The studio's output is dominated by the music genre, which accounts for 12 of their 15 games. Arcade and sport titles follow with 10 and 2 releases respectively, while fighting games make up just one entry. Their development history shows a steady increase in activity from the 1990s into the 2000s and 2010s, peaking at seven releases during the last decade. Activity has slowed slightly in the 2020s with four new entries. The company gained significant recognition for creating Pump It Up, a dance simulation video game that remains central to their identity. They also collaborated with American company Roxor to produce In The Groove 2. Recent releases include Pump It Up Rise in July 2025 and Pump It Up Phoenix in July 2023. Earlier entries in this modern period include Bobblehead Baseball, Chrono Circle, and the 20th Anniversary Edition of Pump It Up XX from 2019. The data shows a clear pattern where almost all their work targets arcade environments rather than home consoles. While they have maintained a presence since 1999, their catalog remains relatively small compared to larger publishers. Their focus has remained consistent on rhythm and dance gameplay throughout the decades, with little shift toward other genres despite their long history in the industry.
