Iris Mega, formerly known as Computerland, is a Serbian video game distributor and owner of fellow distributor Videotop.
Company
Founded in 1993 as Computerland, it quickly expanded into video game distribution, and sold products in Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Bosnia & Herzegovina; by 2000, it had found itself as a leader of its respective markets.
In 2010, Sega awarded Computerland the product distribution rights for the countries of Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Kosovo, and Bosnia & Herzegovina. However, about four years later, these contracts were cancelled for unknown reasons, and Computerland lost its official distribution rights. Around that time, the company was officially renamed Iris Mega, and established additional offices in Bulgaria and Albania.
In 2017, Iris Mega acquired fellow Serbian game distributor Videotop[1], who was officially licensed to distribute Sega's products, and began to sell that company's game products again for about the next year. Around this time, its Bulgarian offices closed, and it formally withdrew from that country. Soon after, fellow Computerland-owned company Colby took over distribution duties for Slovenia and Croatia, while Computerland still continues to handle distribution to Serbia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Kosovo, and Bosnia & Herzegovina.
