M2 Co., Ltd. (Japanese: 有限会社 Ｍ２, Hepburn: Yūgengaisha emutsū) is a Japanese company that creates and sells video games. It is best known for helping to make older games work on new systems, such as some Sega Ages titles, Virtual Console titles for Nintendo systems, the 3D Classics series for the Nintendo 3DS, and their ShotTriggers range of classic STG games. M2 has also created entirely new games, such as WiiWare games for Konami under the ReBirth name and more recently a new GG Aleste game. In addition, M2 currently holds the rights to the Aleste series (except M.U.S.H.A., whose publishing rights are owned by Sega), all of SPS game plus software, and all NEC Avenue and NEC Interchannel games on TurboGrafx-16 and variants, previously owned by Lightweight.
