Note

At the time of cataloging, the owner of the intellectual property for Cookie's Bustle could not be determined. The game was developed and published in 1999 by the Japanese company Rodik. However, beginning in 2021, a pseudonymous European party known as "Graceware" or "Brandon White" (or sometimes using the name of game director Keisuke Harigai) began registering trademarks and copyrights related to the title, then proceeded to aggressively assert their ownership of Cookie's Bustle in late 2022. These recent ownership claims have not been substantiated.
