Versions
Ports of Wolfenstein 3D to the NEC PC-98 architecture were programmed by id Software (who handled the support for the Japanese language) and Infinity Co., Ltd. (who handled the NEC-specific programming). Though based on Intel processors like the IBM PC, the PC-98 series featured a custom bus and different video hardware which made it binary incompatible with most PC software.
