Gary Green said: Neversoft was founded in July 1994 by three employees of Malibu Interactive (previously known as Acme Interactive), a division of Malibu Comics based in Westlake Village, California. At that time, the primary home gaming consoles were the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Games for these systems could be developed by small teams, with anywhere from two to ten employees.
As a result, it was much easier to set up a game development company, and several employees had already left Malibu Interactive to find success on their own. Joel Jewett, a native of Montana, was at the time head of development at the rapidly shrinking Malibu Interactive. He teamed up with Mick West, a game programmer, who had just completed work on BattleTech for the Genesis, and Chris Ward, a video game artist.
