RIO DE JANEIRO, Dec. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Zeebo Inc. announced today that the Company is combining with Tectoy, its marketing and distribution partner in Brazil, to form Zeebo Brazil SA. Zeebo Brazil SA is co-owned by Zeebo Inc, USA and Tectoy, with Zeebo Inc., USA providing financial capital to fuel the growth of the company. Tectoy executives Fernando Fischer and Andre Penha will lead the organization, which is made up of more than 30 Tectoy employees as well as the content developers from Tectoy Digital responsible for creating original Zeebo-branded titles. Fischer will serve as chief executive officer of the new Company and Penha as chief operation officer of the organization's game development studio housed within Zeebo Brazil SA.

The system ships with three pre-embedded games and provides users the ability to download three additional titles at no charge. More than 30 titles will be available by the end of the year. Zeebo is now available throughout Brazil at USD $173 ($299 Brazilian Reals), significantly less than the manufacturer's suggested retail price of the PS2.

"The formation of Zeebo Brazil SA is a true milestone for Brazil and establishes the country as a true leader in the gaming industry," added Rizzo. "As an independent company, Zeebo Brazil SA gives outside investors in Brazil the opportunity to provide financial capital and own shares in both Zeebo Brazil SA and Zeebo Inc., USA."
