Vicarious Visions

Vicarious Visions was a New York City-based computer game developer which specialized mainly in games for handheld Nintendo hardware.

The company was founded in 1990 by brothers Karthik and Guha Bala and developed their first game for the PC in 1996, titled Synnergist. Their Game Boy game development work sprang out of a desire to find a way to fund their PC games, however their success in the handheld gaming field led to them being acquired by Activision at the start of 2005. Under Activision, they produced Wii ports of the Guitar Hero series, multiple Skylanders entries, and the Crash Bandicoot: N-Sane Trilogy and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 remasters. The studio was later moved from Activision to become a subsidiary of Blizzard in 2021, losing its name and becoming a support studio.
