Crave Entertainment, Inc. (also known as Crave Games and Crave) was an American video game company. It was founded in 1997 by Nima Taghavi. Its headquarters is in Newport Beach, California. It was acquired by Handleman Corporation in 2005 in a deal valued up to $95,000,000 but was then sold to Fillpoint LLC in early 2009 for only $8,100,000 due to Handleman's bankruptcy and pending liquidation. During its lifetime it published games for Dreamcast, Wii, Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo 64, Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PSP, Xbox, and Xbox 360. It focuses on budget titles, and imported games such as Kaido Battle. As of October 31, 2012, Crave filed for bankruptcy.
