DESPITE recently being sued by its share holders, it seems to be business as usual at Majesco, with the publisher signing a three year deal with DreamWorks to produce GameBoy Advance Video versions of the studio's successful animated movies Shrek, Shrek 2 and Shark Tale.

These mark the first full-length feature films to be released by Majesco as part of its Game Boy Advance Video line, which has sold approximately 3 million units since first introduced in 2004. .

The company's proprietary video compression technology will enable fans to view these films in full video and audio using a standard Game Boy Advance Video cartridge - and by full we presume they mean “small” - all for the tidy sum of £19.99 a pop. The films will be released in October and under terms of the three-year deal, Majesco will exclusively distribute videos of DreamWorks' "Shrek," "Shrek 2" and "Shark Tale" for use on the Game Boy Advance, Game Boy Advance SP, Nintendo DS and the upcoming Game Boy Micro. . µ
