Destination Software Inc., commonly referred to as DSI Games, operated as an American video game publisher and developer headquartered in Moorestown, New Jersey. Established in January 2001, the company gained prominence for distributing SNOOD alongside various titles compatible with platforms such as Nintendo DS, Wii, Game Boy Advance, and PlayStation 2.

During its initial years, DSI formed publishing partnerships with prominent developers including Take-Two Interactive, Electronic Arts, and Namco to release their games on the Game Boy Advance. Additionally, in 2001, it collaborated with Digital Worldwide to handle publishing duties outside of Europe, thereby broadening its distribution footprint.

In December 2007, GreenScreen Interactive Software acquired Destination Software, subsequently rebranding it as Zoo Publishing, Inc.. This new entity functioned as the North American division of Zoo Games. Post-acquisition, the company discontinued issuing products under the Destination Software brand. From 2008 through 2011, Zoo Publishing introduced roughly 60 titles before the eventual closure of all IndiePub and Zoo operations in 2013.
