Anyone Want To Buy The Rights To All Of Acclaims Games?


Whoah, i gotta get the Tunnel B1 source... it could be ported to the GP2X, could it?

Oh, but i must buy in bulk. Meh.
 
$50,000? That's like... £27,000! Sure, I'd pay that amount of money just to open source the lot... [/sarcasm]

This don't cover the source, just the rights to distro the version for sale. The best your get is some iso's
So if you buy Wetrix for gba then your only be allowed to sell Wetrix for gba. Your not be allowed change or port it to anything else.

You are allowed, but without source it´s going to be somewhat difficult.

OMG. They are selling the rights to bubble bobble?

Other then that, there are only a few games worth saving. Like re-Volt, myst and Populous. (And a lot of 16-bit console games that nobody remembers)
 
I guess I'm a little late for this, but ...
All of the estates right, title and interest, if any, to the Debtor's remaining Video and Computer Games and related Intellectual Property
to me means that source code is included.

And this footnote ...
No intellectual property rights related to Alias may be transferred without the prior written consent of Disney Interactive, Inc. and Disney Interactive, Inc. has not consented to any such transfer. The debtor (Acclaim) possesses certain computer code and other rights to the Alias games which do not constitute Disney Interactive, Inc's. intellectual property.
means that you would have rights to use all the others.


:blink: $50000? just to register? :blink: Too rich for my tastes. :rolleyes:
 
Most of those games suck. Sports games there takes up like 75% of the list. Plus, all the cool games on there like bubble bobble, and ecco the dolphin are only like remakes of the originals o.O

No one wold buy that crap :)
 
Has this been slashdotted?
Maybe a group of that size could get enough in donations to open source them all.


Seeing as how the auction doesn't seem to be going so well .. up to now :rolleyes:
 
73. Iggys Reckin Balls

awesome game for the N64 I wouldn't mind having...

still 0 bids ATM.

possibly someone would buy all of the games in bulk, then we could buy games from them individually...?
