Cor-Son Games

Cor-Son Games was a game developer owned by The Corning/Emerson Group. It was formed following the acquisition and rebranding of Data Ministry. They operated the label as a publisher of unlicensed NES games, but rechristened it in 1990. It started off as Cor-Son New Media, but was shut down due to one of their games running over budget. It was later restructured as a producer of licensed games, namely acting as a co-developer, quality tester and funding platform. By collaborating with other developers and maintaining different teams, Cor-Son were able to produce games quicker than other developers. Warner Bros. helped back the label after they made a licensing deal with the latter's franchise, under the condition that they help produce titles for three of their IPs at some point. The label shut down in 2014, following the release of their last game.
