Elite / Frontier Elite for the iPhone

[Lebowski]

Any chance of porting Elite to the iPhone?

I have fond memories of playing Elite on the BBC Micro many years ago...

Taken from the Twitter Q&A session:

Q: Can we expect to see any re-makes of the original Elite’s? Perhaps an Xbox Live Arcade or PSN version? (JohnS)

If they do ever port it over, then maybe it'll make it to the iPhone too. (I'd prefer Frontier for XBox Live Arcade, but I'll take whatever hit I can get)

That would be the cream on the cake for me.

You could do it via a emulator.

Must be possible, using the touch screen.

Mmmm, Elite with touch screen
