HistoryEdit
Camelot was founded on April 4, 1994 by Shugo Takahashi, the brother of producer Hiroyuki Takahashi, with the intention of developing games for Sony's PlayStation.<ref name=":0">"My history with golf, vol. 22: Camelot Co., Ltd., president and CEO Hiroyuki Takahashi and executive vice president Shugo Takahashi",「わたしのゴルフ履歴書〜Vol.22〜株式会社キャメロット 高橋宏之代表取締役社長、高橋秀五代表取締役副社長」. Gridge. Da-Bird, 2020. Archived from the original on 2023-03-27.</ref> They developed their first game, Beyond the Beyond, while providing assistance to Sonic! Software Planning on Shining Wisdom. They would then provide assistance on Sonic's next game, Shining the Holy Ark.
In April 1998, after Sega merged its investment in Sonic into its subsidiary Nextech, Hiroyuki Takahashi joined Camelot as its president. Camelot then finished development of Shining Force III in Sonic's place and moved on to develop titles for Nintendo consoles.<ref name=":0" /><ref>"Historical Record", Nex Entertainment.

The creation of the Mario character Waluigi can be attributed to Camelot, after Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto consulted with them to create a "Wario-like" counterpart for Luigi during the development of Mario Tennis.Template:Cn
