Interchannel, Inc. (株式会社インターチャネル, Kabushiki-gaisha Intāchaneru) was a Japanese game developer and publisher. Previously known as NEC Interchannel and before that NEC Avenue,[1] it was originally a subsidiary of NEC before 70 percent of the company was sold to Index Corporation for approximately 3 billion yen ($28 million) in 2004.[2] Interchannel's games tended to be Japanese only, however the company established Gamebridge Ltd., a UK-based joint venture with Bergsala, that published its games in Europe.[3] Only ten games were ever published. Interchannel closed in 2013.
