Everything about Hal Laboratory totally explained
is a
Japanese
video game developer that was founded on
February 21 1980. Its name comes from the
HAL 9000 computer in the film . The company is most famous for its character
Kirby, the protagonist of the eponymous game series, as well as the
Super Smash Bros. series. It is a
second-party development studio of
Nintendo.
HAL Laboratory started off making games for the
MSX system and the
Commodore VIC-20. During the early 1980s, some of their games since the
1986 Famicom Disk System game
Gall Force (based on the anime series of the same name) have been released also on
Nintendo systems.
In many of its games during the early to mid-'90s it used the name
HALKEN (derived from their literal Japanese name "HAL KENkyūjo") as well as HAL Laboratory. Some of its early titles were also released as HAL America, a North American subsidiary of the company.
The current president of

Kirby character and the
Super Smash Bros. franchise, and now leads his own company,
