Hacker International Co., Ltd. (株式会社ーハッカー・インターナショナル) was a Japanese games publisher founded by Satoru Hagiwara. The company published pornographic video games in Japan. Most of their games that made it outside of Japan removed the adult material. They are perhaps best known for the NES game Bubble Bath Babes, which was later released in North America as Mermaids of Atlantis.

Though most of their games were not endorsed or licensed by the companies of the console manufacturers, they did manage to get their games licensed for the PC Engine and Playstation.

The company worked with developers from Taiwan such as C&E, Idea-Tek, Sachen, and Joy Van. However, for the companies such as Super Pig and Mimi Pro, some believe these were merely aliases for the company.

Hacker International also had magazine publications, simply titled Hacker.
