Hmm... someone's already making offers on the Extreme G series. Good... the first two were great (or at least I thought so), but playing XGRA it seemed to have, erm... declined a bit in quality. Maybe whoever gets the rights can make some new (better) ones... or shit, at least port 1 and 2 to a modern system.  (edited by Tamarin Calanis on 12-06-05 01:27 PM) |

| Hmmm. Mr. Domino is up to $25,000. That's out of my price range... Though, I suppose it makes sense. After all, whoever has IT controls the world, don't they? I mean, no one can stop Mr. Domino |

Double Dragon for $5000...I'm a little confused  . Wasn't technos which owned the rights for them?. Or were just the nes, snes and the arcade ones? These ones are the gb ones right? I don't quite understand how 2 (or in some cases, more than 2) companies own the rights for a single title |

What are the odds half of the winning bidders turn around and sell the rights to a larger company to make a profit?  Don't forget that someone would have to likely deal with whichever other properties are attached to the game... for example, I can't turn around and start selling a WWF game for some stupid reason because it's LICENSED as 90% of Acclaim's stuff was.
Wouldn't Rare hold intellectual copyright for the Wizards and Warriors series? |

| Incidentally, doesn't Acclaim look like Acmlm?
But yeah, the people/corporations buying the game rights are a little bit crazy. Resell would be a nightmare, and why else would you buy them in the first place? Ever? People are stupid.  |

| I could see a rich guy buying the rights just to say he owned them. | |||

| You'd need to find a game on that list that:
- Acclaim developed; - Doesn't use any other trademarks. Good luck.  |

| Hmm... that'd register as a no, as far as I know. The good games on the list that I know of from Acclaim - Forsaken (not on the list, oddly), Extreme G, and XG2 (sequel to Extreme G, of course) were all developed by Probe, and just published by Acclaim, I think... and who cares about the bad games they developed? | |||

| Yeah, occasionally Acclaim would chance into PUBLISHING a decent game (Particularly in the NES days when they published Rare and pre-Final Fantasy Square games), but I don't think they EVER DEVELOPED a good game.
Anyway, I'm, actually somewhat confused as to what owning the publishing rights to any of these would actually get you...but it'd be cool to have them regardless. |
