Steve Barcia known tale in the computer game industry begins with the founding of Simtex Studios Inc. in 1988, releasing amongst others MoM, MoO and MoO2. Simtex was put to rest in 1997. Following a corporate takeover in May 2000, where Nintendo of America bought Retro Studios, Steve Barcia was elected to replace the founder and ex-president of Retro Studios Jeff Spangenberg. Since many ex-Retro employees had alleged Barcia's mismanagement of the company was one of their primary reasons for leaving, Barcia was replaced by Michael Kelbaugh following a owner's meeting in April 2003.
