Just curious as to the reason(s) why you want to know who has got the IP.
I'd assume BlueSky never owned the IP to begin with.

That's a perfectly valid point.I'd assume BlueSky never owned the IP to begin with.

Atari/Inforgrames owns it. They know they own it. When we discussed doing a project for them, it was on their IP holdings list. David Sullivan (Previously Backbone, now OnLive) made the game. It was concocted inside Atari marketing, who gave Blue Sky a list of things they thought were "hot." The list was essentially two items, Golf and Fighting Games. So David mashed the two together. He has a playable XE version in his possession, and very early 2600 version.
While David doesn't seem to have much affection for the game, I sure do. I'd love to see more done with it. It was actually quite fun while being a totally ludicrous concept.

No I think there were two programmers for Ninja Golf and Sullivan was one of them. I seem to remember David Dentt mentioning him and the XE version (not the 2600 though!). It would great to see either version, I didn't know it was even planned for the 2600.Are you sure about that name? The programmer was David Dentt. I interviewed him.

I would if I had the roms to review. Neither one of them has been made available AFAIK.Bump on this. Tempest: Do you plan on doing Ninja Golf pages for your site, covering the 2600 and XE versions. Always interested to see how they look.

What a waste of potential. Only one game. There should have been a whole franchise. Ninja Golf. Ninja BMX. Ninja Soccer. Ninja Winter Games! Imagine speed skating where you can slash with a sword. Or bobsled where you have to avoid assassins. Or that skiing and gun thing, but it's skiing and dragon fighting!
