Alten8

Alten8 Ltd. is a British video game developer and publisher, with offices in Luton. It produces both licensed retro games and current format video games. As of 2008, Alten8 has been under contract to develop the emulation code for C64 titles on Nintendo's Virtual Console service.

The company was formed by the former CEO Paul Andrews after his involvement with the website Retro-Trader, which led him to be commissioned to gather retro game licenses for a plug-into-TV video game console using games such as Ant Attack (originally on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum). For financial and business reasons out of the control of Andrews, this was never realised. He then formed Alten8 to make use of the gathered licenses. Since then, it has expanded its remit, gaining Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, Wii and Xbox 360 developer status, as well as other formats and publishing following. An initial GBA release, GT Racer, through another publisher convinced Alten8 to self-publish all titles where possible from that point onwards, or to develop console titles under contract only from major publishers. Alten8 now bills itself as the "Alten8 way of publishing games".
