Platinum Games Inc., formerly known as Seeds Inc., is an independent developer set in Japan. It was formed by Shinji Mikami, Atsushi Inaba and Hideki Kamiya of Clover Studios (known for Okami, Viewtiful Joe and Devil May Cry), which was closed by Capcom in October 2006. It has then proceeded to make games published by SEGA, including MadWorld, Infinite Space, Vanquish and Bayonetta, and two games published by Nintendo, The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2. Key people currently include President Tatsuya Minami, Producer Inaba and Director Kamiya, as Mikami left to form his own studio after directing Vanquish, Tango Gameworks. Their games are usually very well-received, but very challenging.
