Piko Interactive LLC is an American video game publisher based in San Antonio, Texas. Founded in early 2013 by Eli Galindo, the company focuses on physical re-releases of games from older video game consoles and digitally released ports to newer systems.

History

[edit]

Founder Eli Galindo started Piko Interactive in 2013. In March, the company launched its first crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to fund a physical release of Super 4 in 1 Multicart for the SNES,[1] with a funding goal of $10,500. The cartridge consists of four games from three developers. This campaign was successfully funded with $15,050 on 184 backers.[2]

In July 16, 2016 Piko Interactive and Wisdom Tree launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to fund "Wisdom Tree Return with Arkade Plug and Play", with a funding goal of $16,500. It was successfully funded with $25,965 on 341 backers.[3]

On August 4, 2017, Piko Interactive and Wisdom Tree launched another crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to fund a physical release of 3 different games (Noah's Ark for NES, Mega 3D Noah's Ark for Sega Genesis, and Wisdom Tree Collection for GBA), with a funding goal of $15,000. It was successfully funded with $17,196 on 200 backers.[4]

On January 2, 2018, Piko announced the acquisition of 60 titles, giving the company control over more than 100 IPs. The acquisition consisted of mostly original works owned by Atari SA. While the specific titles were not announced, the games were previously developed by Infogrames, Ocean Software, Legend Entertainment, Beam Software, Accolade, Hasbro Interactive, GT Interactive, MicroProse, and Spectrum Holobyte.[5]

At the same time, Piko announced its intention to move away from homebrew titles and split the company into three focuses: physical releases, digital releases, and retro console releases.[5] By this point, Piko had over a dozen employees and worked with a partner factory to develop new cartridges.[1]

On February 12, 2018, Piko launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to fund a physical release of the canceled Nintendo 64 port of 40 Winks, with a funding goal of $20,000. The game is the first for the system by Piko, and the first new title for the Nintendo 64 since its discontinuation. It was successfully funded in a matter of hours.[6][1]

On May 28, 2019, Piko launched another crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, this time to fund the production of an action figure line based on the game Switchblade, with a funding goal of $8,500. As part of the Kickstarter, they will launch a new brand called "Toyetico", which will focus on making toy lines for their products. This campaign was successfully funded with $9,525 on 170 backers.[7] On August 9, 2019, 20 of their games were announced to be released on the Evercade console.[8]

On January 15, 2020, Piko Interactive launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to fund a physical release of Jim Power in Monster Planet for Turbografx and Amiga CD32 and Jim Power: The Lost Dimension for a NES, SNES, and Genesis, with a funding goal of $50,000. The campaign was successfully funded with $63,805 from 678 backers.[9] In 2022, a physical release of The Lost Dimension was announced for Switch and PS4, including the SNES version, a completed version of the unreleased Genesis game, and a newly developed NES port.[10][11]

In April 2020, Piko announced the acquisition of the rights to 1998 3D platformer O.D.T., including an unreleased Nintendo 64 version.[12] This was released in 2022.[13]

In May 2020, Piko announced it had acquired the IP rights to SNK Playmore's 2002 tag team fighting game Rage of the Dragons.[14] Piko worked with QUByte Interactive to develop Rage of the Dragons Neo, a re-release that added netplay, training mode, and survival mode to the game.[15] It was released in November 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Switch.[16] A physical edition was also released for PS5, Switch, and original NEO GEO hardware.[15]

On January 4, 2021, Piko announced that they had acquired the Bleem! brand name, with plans to start a retrogaming-focused online storefront titled Bleem Powered.[17] In a 2024 blog post, Galindo announced his intention to launch bleem.net as a one-stop-shop for buying, watching, reading, and playing all the videos games, cartoon, toys, and comics Piko now owns.[18]

On March 02, 2021, Piko Interactive co-launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter with Comix.tv to fund a physical release of Stone Protectors, a Sega Genesis unreleased game and special edition animated series box set with 5 unreleased episodes. The campaign was successfully funded with $33,557 pledged of its $30,000 goal from 371 backers.[19] The Genesis version of the game was released in 2022, while the SNES version was added to Antstream Arcade in July 2024.[20][21]

In February 2022, Piko, Bleem!, and Crave Entertainment released the 1999 PlayStation game Shadow Madness on PC via Steam.[22][23] On October 3, 2022, Piko Interactive co-launched another crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter with Comix.tv to fund The Legend of Calamity Jane special DVD box set and special edition comic to celebrate the series’ 25th anniversary in 2022. The campaign was successfully funded with $24,284 pledged of its $15,000 goal from 426 backers.[24]
