I know Infogrames would own that transfer of license, but they aren't interested in anything to do with the old systems. And AD&D already was paid for it?

Let's assume that all the legal problems have been resolved. What are you willing to pay for this title? Consider that it takes a custom 512KByte ROM board with onboard 8KByte EEPROM for the save feature (which was rejected as not doable on another thread in this group, even though it exists). Consider that it is the same old game as on the PC, SNES, and other platforms. Would it be worth it for someone to go through all the effort to build, test, and package this title for only 100 sales?

I think it's unlikely EOTB was ever finished. All I've seen are unfinished demo's (far from completion).

I plan creating an action adventure game (3d). Exploration with some action. It won't be rpg but neither fps.

However it will take a while as I'm still working on the core engine and I don't have always time to work on this. I have now inventory support but not yet any action object mapping (except open doors).

True. I don't know if 100 people would buy it @ $40. Maybe at shows?

Was it done enough to release it without too much effort?

we are not talking about only $40 for eotb on the lynx.this is a rather hard
to make board-$100 bucks each to be handmade-retail for 200 units will
be $150-200 for it to be worth the effort without the license.if you can even risk it.how many can be sold at this price to lynxers??could 200 be
sold?just curious folks.
