Popcorn Arcade label has a sellout first week and receives trade praise…

Stourbridge, England - Data Design Interactive the video games developer and recently turned publisher, are pleased to announce their first four titles 'Ninjabread Man, Anubis II, Billy Wizard and Rock n Roll Adventure' were released to a receptive trade last Friday, with 2 of the titles already sold out within 3 days of release.

This is a great boost for the company since they have invested in developing a dedicated studio to keep up with demand; the company intends to release 14 Nintendo Wii titles on their Popcorn arcade label before Christmas via their UK distributor Koch Media.

Stewart Green MD Popcorn Arcade, said:

On the Monday I tried to order some promotional units and was amazed to find that Koch were already out of stock, we knew there was a market for family friendly titles that weren't overly complicated, so kids can pick up and start having fun within minutes. At an affordable price we expected a sellout at Christmas for stocking fillers, but having to reorder double the quantities in the first week is beyond our expectations. The Wii is going to be a big success at Christmas, and for us, Christmas is coming early!

Alison Fraser, Product Manager Gamestation, said;

It's great to see the release of a budget range on the Wii console which is attracting the more casual gamer. Popcorn Arcade games are fun titles which will benefit from the growth of the Nintendo Wii Market.
