Renovation Products
Founded: 1989
Defunct: 1993
Merged into: Sega (1993)
Headquarters: United States

Renovation Products was Telenet Japan's US publisher of Sega Mega Drive games, publishing both Telenet's own games and several non-Telenet Japan titles. When Telenet stopped developing on Sega's systems in 1993, Sega acquired the studio (though not before publishing a single SNES game, Telenet's Doomsday Warrior) and they promptly disappeared.

Very few of Renovation's games were released in Europe, however a deal was at one point struck with Ubisoft for distribution in that region, which was subsequently challenged by Sega for undisclosed reasons. No games were officially released, however, and Ubisoft themselves did not publish a game for Mega Drive hardware until Street Racer in 1995.

President Hideaki Irie would later become COO of Sega of America.
