Five Publishers Split NBA Deal

Posted by Zonk on Tuesday March 22, 2005 @04:28AM from the everyone-loves-basketball? dept.

autojive writes "According to a Reuters story, 'The National Basketball Association on Tuesday signed long-term video game licensing deals with five publishers, bucking the recent trend of sports leagues making exclusive arrangements with a single company. Electronic Arts Inc., Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., Midway Games Inc., Sony Corp. and Atari Inc., all current NBA partners, signed new deals with the league.' I guess not playing favorites can get you deals worth a reported 500 million dollars total while hopefully keeping most players and publishers happy."

Now if the NBA could just get the players to sign a deal we'd be on easy street.
