SCI/Sierra Pioneer
Sierra Pioneer
Many mid-1990s Sierra games were published in Japan under a joint venture with the Pioneer Corporation. This company, called Sierra Pioneer Co., Ltd., was formed in July 1995. One may find the Japanese name (シエラ パイオニア) to be helpful in searching the web or auction sites. For the same reason, the Japanese titles are also provided below.
