Overview

BITS was a British video game developer that was found in 1990 by Foo Katan. The company changed its name in 1994 to "Bits Corporation" and again in 1997 to "Bits Studios".

The company has had over 30 titles published over the United States, Europe and Asia on multiple platforms. Bits Studios' parent company, PlayWize, sold off all assets and technologies held by the group in 2008, due to poor trading results. As a result, the company no longer has any trading operations.

The company was known for making some good games, but also for developing rushed titles based on popular franchises at the time. The company developed some titles which were unreleased on NES, but were ported to Game Boy, such as Populous.

Famous video game musician David Whittaker did the music for their NES games while Shahid Ahmad composed their SNES and Genesis game soundtracks.
