Choplifter Resurrection May be in the Works

Wednesday June 17, 2009

While doing some of my daily skimming through gaming sites I took notice to something Gamespot posted. Choplifter may be making its way back into the gaming scene. For many of you I'm sure this means little to nothing, but some of my fondest memories of the good old arcade era revolve around that very game, one of my favorites.

Yesterday, developer inXile Entertainment filed a trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the title "Choplifter." The filing locked down use of the title for "downloadable electronic games via the Internet and wireless devices," raising the possibility of a digitally distributed version of the game for consoles, handhelds, or possibly the iPhone.

It would be a retro-treat to see this game make a come back on any of the consoles, handhelds, virtual arcades or other mobile devices. An appearance on the iPhone would be especially welcomed. Read the full story in Gamespot's original post. That being said, what long lost games would you like to see return? Comments welcomed.
