--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 23 13:40:20 2004 EST
GLEN COVE, N.Y., Jan. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Acclaim Entertainment,
Inc. (Nasdaq: AKLM) today announced that it has received notice from The Nasdaq
Stock Market, Inc. ("Nasdaq") indicating that, in accordance with Marketplace
Rule 4310(c), the Company has been granted an extension, until January 24,
2005, within which to regain compliance with the minimum $1.00 bid price per
share requirement of The Nasdaq SmallCap Market.

In the notice, the Nasdaq staff noted that since the Company meets the
initial inclusion criteria for The Nasdaq SmallCap Market under Marketplace
Rule 4310(c), it is eligible for this additional compliance period. The
compliance period is extended until January 24, 2005, provided that, if, prior
to January 24, 2005, the bid price of the Company's common stock does not close
at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days, then
the Company is required to (1) seek shareholder approval for a reverse stock
split at or before it next shareholder meeting and (2) promptly thereafter
effectuate the reverse stock split. The Company has committed in writing to
Nasdaq to effectuate those measures in the event compliance is not achieved
prior to January 24, 2005.

If at any time before January 24, 2005, the bid price of the Company's
common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive
trading days, the Nasdaq staff will provide notification that the Company
complies with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(D).

The Company cannot provide any assurance that it will receive an affirmative
vote of its stockholders authorizing a reverse stock split, if required, nor
that the Company will regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
