Data Design Interactive was a British game developer that was known for producing many poor-quality video games for many consoles but especially known for making various Wii shovelware games, such as Ninjabread Man, which was originally a Zool game. They started around the 80's making games for European computers before they worked on Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy on the Game Boy. They then made ports of Super James Pond, Rise of the Robots, and Waterworld before moving on to licensed games for other companies. They closed in 2012.
