Majesco Adds Konami TV Games To Diverse Line-Up

Posted by simoniker on Tuesday May 18, 2004 @08:14PM from the buried-by-tv-games dept.

Thanks to Yahoo for reprinting the press release noting Majesco are getting into the 'TV game' business by signing a deal with Konami to "publish five plug-and-play video game systems. The first two systems will contain classic versions of Konami's popular Frogger and Konami Arcade Classics video games and be available at retail this fall." Majesco was recently featured on Slashdot Games for its GBA video/messaging/link products, but also holds an intriguing game portfolio for a smaller publisher, from Bookworm for the Game Boy Advance ("immensely popular [PopCap-developed] web-game [converted to GBA]") to Guilty Gear X2 #Reload for the Xbox ("popular fighting franchise makes its debut on Xbox with head-to-head Xbox Live support.")

for the all-in-one GameBoy Advance controller. But instead of sticking only 5 games on it, maybe they could somehow implement some sort of interchangeable media format instead. Or even a screen! OMG, drool!

Hm. Patent pending, patent pending, patent pending. *evil eye*
