About

Founded in 1999, 3d6 Games Inc. specialized in handheld game development. The studio is best known for developing Game Boy Advance titles under contract for major publishers, including Sega's Altered Beast: Guardian of the Realms and The Revenge of Shinobi.
The company's portfolio and distribution associations span a variety of classic titles across early console and home computer platforms. Among the earliest releases linked to the entity are the 1978 release of Checkers under the Tele-Games label and the 1980 title Ghostbusters II. The company is also associated with seminal 1980s releases, including the landmark platformer Pitfall! in 1982 and the racing game Enduro in 1983, specifically its reverse blue label variant.
Additional software cataloged under its umbrella includes the 1983 release Tuby Bird and the 1984 action game Toy Bizarre. The company's historical footprint also extends to cassette-based distributions, notably the 1984 cassette release of Ghostbusters and the Firebird-published version of Beamrider in the same year. These titles represent a diverse range of early interactive entertainment, bridging the gap between early Atari VCS cartridges and home computer cassette formats.
