Prediction. They make 1 game, it sells on nastolgia only. It does okay. Company shuts down.
This leaves me wondering who has nostalgia for Acclaim outside of a handful of games
They published lots of popular franchises, the problem is that they never owned half of them and the other half are now owned by big labels like EA. Maybe they can recover some mid level franchises from the ruins Embracer is leaving behind but that's pretty much it.
