My Spy Hunter was going to be a sandpaper candidate, but I actually ended up liking the game, etc etc.

Are you serious? That thing sucks more than my shop-vac! :lame:

No no, screw custom. I thought since Stern's hitting hard times and having to scale back somewhat, why not save themselves from a pricey license fee and put out a game using their own IP, one that would appeal to retro arcade gamers and feature those SWEEET words "Intruder Alert! Stop the Humanoid!"
 :D

I'm not sure that this Stern actually owns the IP of that Stern... there have been so many exchanges of IP over the years in that industry I bet stuff like Berzerk is owned by some dormant entity someplace.

I think" back when I was contemplating redoing the artwork for Whiz Kids, but that stuff has to be borderline public domain by now.

I heard the same thing, but when I emailed them a couple years ago about it, the reply was that yes, Gary Stern still owns the rights.  :dunno
