The acquisition commenced back in May, following losses for Atari, making operations hardly possible. The new Namco Bandai Partners will be spearheaded by Jackie Fromion as CEO.
Said he:
With our committed and experienced teams of professionals around the world we provide a first class distribution solution, and we very much hope to see a growing number of publishers taking advantage of this.
