Sofbox

Sofbox is a project developed by Futabasha.
At that time PC shops being not widely spread, it aimed at finding a new distribution system, like Brother Industries did with their vending machine Takeru. Futabasha being a book publisher, it decided to use bookstores' distribution channel to release their software.

The lineup had four series:
Super Game: low price editions of old games.
Fantasy: original games by Sofbox.
Super Business: business related software like word processor.
Super Life: tools such as household account book manager.
