[edit]This is crap. Digital Eclipse deserves its own Wikipedia entry... it's been around for over a decade now, and its logo still appears in recently released video games. Mergers or not, the company still exists as its own entity and should be recognized as such. --M.Neko 06:53, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
I would really adore if I could make a wiki entry for Digital Eclipse as well, since it is one of the companies that I've seen which markets their specialists by emulation, so someone get on that. --Alex 10:44, 10 September 2007
Backbone is not a Canadian game developer. The main office is in Emeryville, California. Time to stop the edit war, you're wrong.24.23.227.169 (talk) 09:36, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
Seriously, the Vancouver office is closed, it's not a Canadian company206.169.113.225 (talk) 20:14, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
- Page edited to clarify the (formerly) Canadian aspect of Backbone Entertainment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.103.92.105 (talk) 03:50, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
The game list seems arbitrary in what is included/excluded. Backbone Entertainment was formed in 2003 but there are games listed from 2001. If they are listing the games of its progenitors, Digital Eclipse and ImaginEngine, then the list is extremely incomplete. See the Archive.org copy of the Digital Eclipse site for example. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.49.103.254 (talk) 20:36, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
- I agree that the whole article looks very inaccurate. The Backbone Entertainemnt website is not even online and the specific Digital Eclipse work on ports and game preservation has been noted numerous times (see for example https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/251956/How_Digital_Eclipse_aims_to_preserve_classic_games_for_future_generations.php). The creation of a specific Digital Eclipse entry seems relevant to me. Hell Pé (talk) 10:59, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
Not very well-authored.
[edit]Okay, this article needs to be split between Digital Eclipse and Backbone.
That's the first thing.
Another thing happens to be that many Digital Eclipse games were made way before the list here presents anything. In fact, I have a different solution/suggestion: combine all companies of this company under one very detailed article.
I was going to edit this article, but it's too lame for me to want to invest the time. I do small edits, and only give a damn about the Super Mario Bros. Super Show entry. But I do know that there's a hell of lot more stuff on Digital Eclipse, like doing the Arcade's Greatest Hits series for Midway.
