Looking at the product page on G.rev's site:

http://www.grev.co.jp/seihin.html

I see that their first two games were published by Sega, but all the rest have/will be published by Sega and another company called ピーアイシー.

Does anyone know what's up with that?

And another mystery is solved!

I wonder what the idea behind that was. Sega publishes a ton of arcade games by themselves; what's the point of getting a co-publisher?

Presumably just outsourcing of work to cut costs. I'm thinking PIC probably handles the distribution.
