Examu, was a Japanese video game company founded in 2000 by exstaff members from Yuki Enterprises. It mostly produced fighting games for arcades and home consoles and was the developer of the fighting game series Arcana Heart. Initially, they developed games for their own arcade system board called eX-Board, to release their games mostly on Taito's NESiCAxLive arcade delivery system. Support for eX-Board ceased in December, 2013. At the end of February 2020, Examu suspended their business operations. Any ongoing development works and product supports (most particularly ongoing supported fighting games (including licensed fighting games)) has since migrated to its rebranded successor since 2019, Team Arcana.
