''FUN! Online Games'' originally started out as '' Plushie Pals'', a magazine for stuffed animal collectors. As more and more companies began attaching feature codes to their stuffed pets that could be used to activate online content, ''Plushie Pals'' started focusing more and more on online games. In October 2009, Beckett made the move to rename the magazine ''FUN! Online Games''. The magazine still contains some plushie collector content, but its main focus is now the online content.
