Game Over for Zeemote

Wade Roush 11/6/09

Zeemote, a Chelmsford, MA-based startup that developed a handheld game controller for use with games on mobile handsets, has closed its doors and is putting its assets up for sale, according to a story today in Mass High Tech. Founded in 2005 by Boston-area entrepreneur Beth Marcus, the company worked with handset manufacturers Nokia, Samsung, LG, Sony Ericsson, and RIM to make its Bluetooth-based device compatible with their phones. Mass High Tech spoke with a partner from Zeemote backer Commonwealth Capital Ventures who confirmed the closure but offered no further details.
