Given that this was originally meant as a Battlestar Galactica title, I'm pleased somebody restored it to that, and then some. I've already ordered this game. I'm definitely not throwing this battlestar into the sun. ;)

On a side note, I'm kinda impressed that nobody's sent a cease and desist yet, though I'm not sure how that kind of stuff works legally.

Is that border always that blue on Battlestar Galactica Space Battle?

No it could be white or gold depending on the squadron you're using.

I can't imagine why anybody would do this, unless they just want to be a jerk. I can't see how this could possible hurt anybody.

I'd never even heard of Space Battle. Unfortunately it has such a generic title that it's easy to overlook.

You need to check it out. Unfortunately Intellivision games like this aren't going to be the same emulated. You really need to have that keypad at your disposal. And Space Battle utilized that keypad to the fullest extent.
