Quoted from truemagoo102:

Someone did flash the ROMs- it's up on ipmd. Someone should really remake this. Only issue would be the rights to "King Kong" that no one seems to know who owns (https://comicbook.com/movies/news/wild-and-complicated-story-of-the-rights-to-king-kong/) - who owns the rights to old Data East properties though?

I don’t know about Data East, but as long as a game did not use any element from any of the movies (1933, 1976, or 2005), and at least on paper said the game was based on the novelisation, whoever (re) made this would be free and clear. That’s not to say Universal wouldn’t TRY to sue… but they don’t have much of a leg to stand on as far as character rights after the Donkey Kong thing.

Quoted from billsfanmd:

Speaking of Rights. I remember when I first joined pinside. There was a guy or company making Predator I think. If I recall he had a working game, looked cool with UV stealth modes, took deposits then at the end said he had to shut down because he forgot to get license? If I recall it got ugly.

Hoooooooo boy. You’ll find it if you search - I don’t think we want to mar this Wanted thread with that trash !
