It first made a name as a reissuer of old titles that had been abandoned by their original publisher. By cutting the prices dramatically and, eventually, arranging the rights to self-manufacture games for both [[Nintendo]] and [[Sega]] systems, the company found a sustainable market [[niche]]. [[File:Genesis_3.png|Majesco's Genesis 3|left|thumb|''Majesco's'' Genesis 3]] Later, they arranged with Sega to manufacture a version of its ''[[Sega Genesis|Genesis]]'' (also known as ''[[Sega Megadrive|Megadrive]]'') 16-bit console, which had been superseded by the 32-bit ''[[Sega Saturn|Saturn]]''. They released this in 1998 as the ''Genesis 3'', and followed up with a version of the hand-held ''[[Sega Game Gear|Game Gear]]'' called the ''Game Gear Core System''. More recently, the company's focus shifted to in-house game development - initially under the brand of ''Pipe-Dream Interactive'', since few believed they could make the transition successfully. Majesco now focuses on developing for newer systems, such as Nintendo's [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] and [[Game Boy Advance]], Microsoft's [[Xbox]], and Sony's [[PlayStation 2]]. {{clear}} ==External links== *[http://majescogames.com Official Majesco website] [[Category:Game publishers]] {{Publisher stub}} {{Wikipedia-info}} [[Category:Companies established in 1986]] [[Category:Companies based in New Jersey]]
