Former staff members Yoshiro Kimura, Kazuyuki Kurashima, and Hirofumi Taniguchi currently manage the game company Onion Games, which created original games such as Dandy Dungeon: Legend of Brave Yamada, and published Moon: Remix RPG Adventure on modern platforms.[3]

The company's name was inspired by Nishi's love for Yellow Magic Orchestra, notably the album Technodelic.[2]
