Nintendo DS games The license for Nancy Drew on Nintendo DS was not granted to HeR Interactive, but rather Majesco, and subsequently THQ. HeR Interactive did, however, co-develop a Hardy Boys video game for the system featuring Samantha Quick, a recurring character in their Nancy Drew PC game series, with similar gameplay, making it effectively a spin-off.
