U.S. Gold: 1984-1996 жылдардағы британдық ойын баспасы

Кіріспе

Британдық бейне ойын баспасы, 1984–1996

U. S. Gold Limited – Англияның Бирмингем қаласында орналасқан британдық бейне ойын баспасы. Компания 1984 жылы Энн және Джефф Браун тарапынан құрылды, бұл олардың дистрибьюторлық фирмасы CentreSoft-пен бірге болды. Екеуі де Вудвард Браун Холдингс (кейін CentreGold деп аталды) құрамына кірді. Компанияның негізгі мақсаты – АҚШ-тан импортталған ойындарды Еуропаға, әсіресе Ұлыбританияға төмен бағамен шығару болды.

Тарих

1985 жылы U.S. Gold компаниясы өзінің бірінші қаржы жылында белгілі бір айналымға жететінін болжады және келесі жылы тағы 150 ойын шығаруды күтті. 1988 жылы U.S. Gold "Жылдың бағдарламалық жасақтама үйі" номинациясы бойынша Алтын Джойстик сыйлығын алды. Компания сонымен қатар Kixx бюджеттік ойын қатарын да басқарды. 1988 жылы компания жапондық Capcom компаниясымен Еуропада үй компьютерлері үшін аркадалық бейнеойындарды лицензиялау туралы келісім жасады. Олар Capcom-пен он ойындық келісімге белгілі бір сома төледі. Келісім аясында жарияланған алғашқы төрт ойын – 1987 жылғы аркадалық ойындардың Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST және Amiga платформаларына портталған Street Fighter, Tiger Road, 1943: The Battle of Midway және Black Tiger болды. Олардың алғашқы бес Capcom ойыны 1989 жылға дейін Ұлыбританияда 250,000 данадан астам сатылды, ал сол кезге дейін ең көп сатылған Capcom ойыны 70,000-нан астам сатылыммен Bionic Commando болды. Олардың келесі Capcom ойыны 1989 жылы Forgotten Worlds болды. 1996 жылдың сәуір айында Eidos Interactive компаниясы CentreGold компаниясының барлық еншік компанияларын (соның ішінде U.S. Gold компаниясын) сатып алды, нәтижесінде U.S. Gold және CentreSoft компаниялары қызметін тоқтатты.
