Digital Eclipse Software, Inc./Summary

Background : Digital Eclipse is also known as Backbone Vancouver, but the latter name is used very rarely. The studio was known mostly for porting classic arcade games from Williams and other producers. In 2003, it merged into Backbone and ceased to exist as an independent unit. The name was used as a cap brand. In 2009, F9E closed the studio. A group of Digital Eclipse employees split off from Backbone to form Other Ocean Interactive, which, in 2015, bought and revived the Digital Eclipse brand.

1st Logo
(1994-2009)

 Nicknames : "Eclipse"

 Logo : On a black background, we see a white halo with some fizzy lines around it looking like a solar eclipse. "DIGITAL ECLIPSE" is seen below. On some games, it has the byline "A division of Foundation 9 Entertainment" (in F9E corporate logo). The eclipse and the words "Digital Eclipse" glow for a while before they disappear.

 Variants :
 * On Sega Mega Drive Collection, the background is blue after the flash occurs.
 * On Capcom Classics Collection Volume 1 for the Playstation 2 and Xbox, and Capcom Classics Collection Remixed for the PSP, we first see a sketchbook. Then a hand opens the book and draws the Digital Eclipse logo. When the logo is finished, the hand turns the page of the book, and the game's opening continues.

 FX/SFX : Mostly none for the still version, but sometimes it's animated. Live-action for the Capcom Classics Collection Volume 1 and Capcom Classics Collection Remixed variants.

 Music/Sounds : None for the still version. For the animated variant, a sound of glass breaking when the flash appears, and sounds for the logo glowing. On the Capcom Classics Collection variants, a sound of the book opening and some sketching and drawing sounds are heard throughout.

 Availability : Rare. Seen on a couple of their games, such as Capcom Classics Collection Volumes 1 and 2 for Playstation 2 and Xbox, Capcom Classics Collection Remixed for the PSP, and Sega Mega Drive Collection (Sega Genesis Collection in the US) for the PSP and Playstation 2.

 Editor's Note : None.
