Koch Media is set to distribute a Deal or No Deal DS title, following a deal with French publisher Mindscape that will also see it handle three other games on the platform. 

The signing follows a number of acquisitions by Koch in recent weeks, this latest signing being a particular coup for the firm. Since the Noel Edmonds Edmond’s hosted television show emerged on Channel Four a few years ago, it has enjoyed massive popularity in the UK with young and old viewers alike. This popularity has translated well into a variety of product tangents, which will mean the franchise will be hotly sought after by games publishers.

Alongside the Deal or No Deal title, Real Adventures: Pet Pals, Crazy Pig, and Real Adventures: Wild Horses will also be released in Q4 next year.

“We are very proud to work with such a strong name as Mindscape and their games will perfectly complement our Nintendo DS line up for this Christmas,” said Craig McNicol, managing director of Koch Media.

“This year Deal or No Deal will be one of our truly key titles,” added CEO of Mindscape  JP Nordman,: “Mindscape’s new line-up on console is fascinating. Koch and Mindscape are now building a fantastic team and we are very excited of this new partnership.”
