Eidos is to distribute eight of Majesco’s titles by this summer, with more than 15 of the US publisher’s games to follow.

The partnership will focus on titles for Nintendo's consoles. DS titles will include Cake Mania, The MechAssault: Phantom War and Nancy Drew: The Deadly Secret of Old World Park, while several as yet unannounced Wii games are also included in the deal. 

Majesco’s games were previously distributed by THQ in Europe.

“There is an obvious synergy between Eidos’ focus on the casual games market and Majesco’s expertise in this field,” said product acquisition director at Eidos Ian Livingstone. “This is just the start of an exciting relationship with Majesco and furthers our commitment to casual games.”

"This partnership with Eidos provides us with a focus that our mass market games will really benefit from, and is a natural progression in our company’s evolution. It’s also a fantastic opportunity to work with some of the best professionals in the industry while benefiting from a proven international distribution network,” added managing director of Majesco Jason Dutton.
