Universal Sales Co. LTD is a Japanese electronics manufacturing company. Currently, their most popular product in Japan is a fingerprint-keyed lock system. They are best known in the USA for their subsidiary, Universal USA Inc., an arcade game company that operated throughout the late 1970's and early 1980's. Their greatest hit was the game Mr. Do! in 1982, which spawned four sequels. Ladybug was also a successful game. Cashing-in on the success of laserdisc video games, Universal released Super Don Quix-ote in 1984, on a new standardized laserdisc video game system they called the Universal System 1. A new game was planned every six months for the Universal System 1, including a laserdisc adventure game based on Mr. Do!, but the company stopped producing arcade games in 1985, and Super Don Quix-ote ended up being the only game released for the system.

Universal Sales Co. LTD sold off their video game manufacturing arms in the 1990's to Takara and Capcom.
