Founded in 1946 in Chicago, Illinois, '''Williams''' Manufacturing Company was originally a pinball machine producer. In 1994, Williams purchased [[Tradewest]] and renamed it as "Williams Entertainment, Inc." to enter the wide gaming market and to develop its own games. In 1996, Williams acquired [[Time Warner Interactive]] and Williams Entertainment was merged into a new corporation, "[[Midway Games|Midway Home Entertainment]]". However, early Midway games still used the Williams Entertainment banner. | Founded in 1946 in Chicago, Illinois, '''Williams''' Manufacturing Company was originally a pinball machine producer.
