TGC enters Console Market
TGC – The Games Company obtains certification from Nintendo.
Development and Publishing for Wii and Nintendo DS planned
Berlin, 27th November 2007: In 2008 the strategic orientation of the Berlin based publisher points towards next-gen consoles. In addition to its successful PC products TGC will be extending its portfolio with titles for Nintendo's Wii console and for Nintendo DS. Proprietary as well as licensed products and commissioned productions for these consoles will then be published by TGC on its own initiative. As a certified Nintendo partner TGC will develop and publish Wii and Nintendo DS games for European, Australian and New Zeeland markets.
With this strategic decision TGC is entering a strongly growing market and setting the course for the expansion of business activities in the upcoming fiscal year. The company will announce the first console titles very soon with its line-up for 2008.
Markus Malti, CEO of TGC, comments on the accreditation by Nintendo: "The partnership with Nintendo emphasizes TGC's ambitions as a multi-platform publisher. I am looking forward to the first projects we are going to realize for the two platforms."
