Buena Vista Games No Longer

Today, during an investor conference in Orlando, Disney executives announced a name change for the company's videogame business division to Disney Interactive Studios. Disney Interactive Studios' Senior Vice President, Graham Hopper remarked, "This change reflects our focus on creativity, the weight of Disney content in our portfolio, and the enormous value consumers see in the Disney brand."
Formerly known as Buena Vista Games, Disney Interactive Studios is responsible for publishing both Disney and non-Disney branded videogame products for all of the current gaming platforms. Presumably, this change is designed to leverage the massive name recognition of the Disney brand to publisher games under the company's other strong consumer brands ABC and Touchstone.
