BUENA VISTA GAMES
Buena Vista Games is the interactive entertainment arm of Disney
Consumer Products. Titles for Buena Vista Games fall under two publishing
labels: Buena Vista Interactive, which focuses on high-profile multi-platform
games based on creative content from the numerous businesses within
The Walt Disney Company, and Disney Interactive, which markets and
distributes the company’s award-winning Disney branded entertainment
and learning software and video games.
In August 2003, Buena Vista Interactive, the core games publishing
label of Buena Vista Games, launched the PC action game Tron
2.0. The game is inspired by the 1982 cult-classic film Tron
and takes place 20 years into the future. Critically acclaimed,
the title has garnered multiple editor’s choice awards as
well as industry recognition.

The Baby Einstein Company has leveraged Disney’s global resources
to expand distribution and has begun to develop brand extensions

The Baby Einstein Company’s overall growth and worldwide
distribution is expected to give the company a presence in more
