Acclaim Games
Acclaim Entertaiment has enjoyed astronomical growth and success since their successful public offering announced during the '88 Summer CES. In that time, they have expanded their NES library, entered the VCR gaming market, opened up subsidiaries in Japan and Europe to aid in game development, and are now looking to enter the computer software market. To say that Acclaim has made it big is a bit of an understatement.
