Formerly known as Paradigm Simulations, Paradigm started off as a flight model and simulation company based in Texas. The company worked with Nintendo to produce Pilotwings 64, one of the first three games available for N64 in Japan and the U.S. and later partnered with EA for Beetle Adventure Racing (released as HSV Adventure Racing in Australia). On June 29, 2000, Paradigm was acquired by Infogrames.
