Superscape was founded nearly twenty years ago, and has been dedicated throughout its history to the development of ground-breaking software technology for the creation and delivery of innovative, high quality interactive 3D applications.
Over the years, Superscape has amassed unparalleled expertise and experience in the development of 3D software capable of working within the constraints of limited memory devices, slow processor speeds and strictly controlled file sizes.
Drawing on this knowledge, Superscape has established a world-leading position in the development of industry-standard 3D technology and applications for mobile devices. The company's Swerve technology has been developed specifically for wireless environments in close collaboration with ARM, and comprises a 3D engine (Swerve Client), authoring tools (Swerve Studio) and a broad portfolio of 3D content, with particular emphasis on 3D games. Swerve is being adopted on a global basis by many of the mobile industry's leading players, together with world-renowned content and brand organisations.
Superscape has corporate headquarters in Hook, Hampshire (UK) and San Clemente, California (USA) with regional offices in Tokyo and Sydney. The company is quoted on the London Stock Exchange (LSE: SPS).
Superscape (SPS) has received various tips in the press and by Analysts recently which will certainly give impetous to the share price. Indicators are looking good with the RSI rising off an oversold position and the MACD crossing showing BULLISH signs for the stock.
The mobile gaming market is still in it's infancy but the projected revenue is enormous. Mobile operators are looking at tapping the Gameboy market as they feel that users will not want to carry around a multitude of technology and if they have a mobile phone which can double as a gaming station than people will prefer this option.
People should also look at the recent contracts which SPS have signed for their technology. This is a technology company which could well be a great success in 2004.

Annual results out around April 2006....will this show decent revenue?
Interims due in October.....they need to post something like 4 to 5 million for the half year....is it likely?
Cash is down to the 5 million mark!!!!
Do they have stats to how many downloads of their games are currently happenning>>> hmmmm
One question I do have....what percentage of handsets can use these games currently?

Well....have any of you gone to the 3 UK sites and checked out the ease with which to get to Superscape games....I just did and I am NOT impressed.
There are many games, often difficult to get to and where extactly are the SPS titles????.....They currently have about 12 titles don't they and I find them difficutl to find....If I do then how are they generating the 2 per game?
I really would like to know if SPS are on top of the resellers and have stats for their game downloads????

surely users just download the games via WAP? Vodafone have a WAP games section, and buying the games from there is pretty easy.
I don't know if the SPS games are on there tho.

Skids....they will get 20 out of 20....I have to say again that signing agreements is one think, having their games downloaded (paid for) is something else.
Do we understand how these mobile companies deal with game suppliers.
For instance Vodafone may have 20 such agreements and have no preference on how they present the games on their portals.
In this senerio its down to Superscape having the titles that the kids want!
I still have concerns on Superscapes games being "buried" in a resellers website.

aaaa....also...check out Superscape website...which games are actually available.
I checked out 6 of the top titles and they all state "not yet available in UK"
So where are they available?
When will Superscapes catalog be available and across which suppliers.
So what do we have today...a number of titles in development, 17 signed contracts and a timer!!!!
What we don't have is revenue streams.....so when...
Have I got this wrong?

Andrew - hate to point you away from moneyam, but if you visit the Superscape thread on advfn you will find much more information and links to tables showing what games are on what devices on what networks, all put together by private investors rather than company. It is perhaps the one source of accurate information while the company continue to avoid publishing such information.
I think you have it wrong on revenue streams - download revenue is flowing, although mainly from the US network operators. Verizon in particular.

Moneyman Hi,
Indeed, this looks like a target for YOO at some point, because the losses are so big .... well you know what I'm saying ;)
I pointed lemminginvestor to todays RNS 5 mins after I read it, but they were aware of the losses not going down very fast, and are not going to cover SPS.
Cheers,
PM

FT says there may be up to TEN BIDDERS!!
http://news.ft.com/cms/s/afbd489c-33df-11da-adae-00000e2511c8.html
Still with mobile technology, Superscape, which makes games playable on phones, rose 3 per cent to 25p on talk that up to ten bidders could be looking at buying the group, including Electronic Arts, Sony and Microsoft. Superscape is thought to be keen to compile a shortlist before its interims on 17 October.

Great news...this is starting to look very good!

From today's Times:-
Superscape held steady at 26p, despite talk that Thursdays mobile gaming agreement between Vodafone and Electronic Arts could hasten a tie-up with the latter. Superscape already has a tie-up with Vodafone in 3D games, an area where EA has no expertise.
This is undoubtedly going to lead EA placing a much higher premium on SPS. The good news for holders is that there are rumoured to be 10 potential bidders in all. EA will see the biggest synergy through the Vodafone agreement and with demand now starting to fizz in China and developing Asia, they will have to buy in the expertise and capability to make the deal a reality.
I think the next 2 -3 weeks will be very very interesting.
