I have a working formula for silliness: FISH PI.

I wouldn't mind £10k given to me out of pity!!

What kind of Pay off do you think Cash has had?

[devonport] 29/5/2007 16:45

Why should Cash get a pay off but nobody else who lost money?
Apart from the fact that he was bordering on the pyschotic. I might ask this at the AGM.

[macca29] 29/5/2007 16:19

artey: cash took his statement off myspace,
do you think he's had a pay-off ;-)

I used to have one of these that Mattel introduced in 1979. It was surprisingly advanced for the time with some very addictive games.



Where's cashmagnet?

Only just realised that scope seven were formerly Comchoice

cheers aph'

snaptv and zootech both issued contracts with scholasic for i spy, phonics etc
so this is a similar situation,

[aphzombie] 29/5/2007 14:28

the business model for dvdextra is two-pronged Artey: first is the DEVELOPER license (in this case with Scope7) which is to use the DES software, training fees, software updates etc. all fees for which are deliberately minimal (the software itself is less than £2k at last count). The second is the PUBLISHER license which is the per-unit royalties (in this case the agreement with Mattel).

[artey] 29/5/2007 13:56

I think it is the collaboration with Scope Seven macca. Must admit I am wondering about the input/involvement myself, and the financial relevance.

If it is, however, just the scope seven contract, as on their own website, why would zoo need to make an agreement with Mattel ?

[macca29] 29/5/2007 13:31

todays rns might be a bit misleading as zootech said they were not developing any more dvds "that job usually goes to the alliance members using the tools"
the same was said about scholastic, if it is that zootech get the development fees as well might be a bigger bonus,

[macca29] 29/5/2007 12:54

artey: they don't show the back of american dvds like tesco and woolworths,

[macca29] 29/5/2007 12:51

i will be going over to the states in september,
so i will be looking in all the big stores

[macca29] 29/5/2007 12:43

dvd extra will be used for high school board game 2
is that correct?

[siwel100] 29/5/2007 12:42

Funny how people dismiss the iDVD side. Zoo owns that sector and its barely started yet. Sure its not going to replace console games, or even compete with them. But it will have its own nice niche. So far we have only really seen the UK and some activity in the US. But each multilingual version creates interest in different markets. We havent even scratched the surface for developers in Japan and the Far East, the spanish speaking countries, the rest of Europe etc.
We dont need Zoo to make Billions....every few million rerates the company.

Then of course there is TAS and the DVD production suite. We havent even started to scratch the surface with that one either.

We know they have the software products complete. We know they already have a client base. We know they have a saleforce now in place to drive sales. I am just suprised that others are suprised we are getting the positive newsflow.

But considering its still valued at less than cash in the bank...that will change. When stocks get silly expensive they fall....when they get silly cheap they rise...it aint rocket science.

[artey] 29/5/2007 12:42

Have you seen any logos on the dvd's macca ?

[macca29] 29/5/2007 12:31

it looks like sonic was used for the high school board game
and zoos regional menu tool for the foreign versions

[scotty1] 29/5/2007 12:16

correct ;)

[siwel100] 29/5/2007 12:14

macca....the news didnt come out until 8.20. Most will have missed it......but it will eventually catch up :)

[macca29] 29/5/2007 12:08

i thought with it being matell we might have gone ballistic, ;-)
