About Digital Kids
Digital Kids was a Japanese video game development studio primarily active during the Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo DS eras. Rather than creating original retro arcade shooters, the studio carved out a very specific niche: developing handheld games based on popular anime licenses and highly successful virtual pet simulators.
A standout title in their retro catalog is 'Gensou Maden Saiyuki: Hangyaku no Toshin Taishi', released for the Game Boy Advance in 2003. Based on Kazuya Minekura's popular manga and anime, this top-down action-adventure game allowed players to control the iconic quartet—Sanzo, Goku, Gojyo, and Hakkai. Fans praised the game for its character-switching mechanics, allowing players to use each character's unique weapons and abilities to solve puzzles and defeat enemies in a faithful dark fantasy setting.
Beyond action-packed anime games, Digital Kids achieved massive global success by developing many titles in the lucrative 'Petz' and 'Hamsterz' series for Western publishers like Ubisoft. Their legacy is defined by their mastery of handheld platforms, bringing both beloved anime characters and adorable virtual pets to players' pockets before the studio eventually faded from the industry.
