NewKidCo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

NewKidCo International Inc. (TSE:NKC; OTC BB: NKCIF),[1] was a video game company that released children's videogames based on popular licensed characters, for Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft game consoles. NewKidCo went out of business in 2005.

Initially NewKidCo had subsidiary offices in Burlington, Massachusetts and Midtown Manhattan, New York City.[2] At a later point, it was headquartered in Midtown Manhattan, with its only office being there.[3]

Most of their games are rated E for everyone, with the exception of Tom and Jerry: War of the Whiskers, which is rated T for teen due to its excessive yet cartoony violence.
