My question is, any idea who owns the rights to it,(No luck in my searches online) and, how would someone suggest to a company to bring it out for some of the gaming systems?
I am thinking it would be EASY to port over to X-Box or PS, and it would be a good cheap game for people who had some time to waste. This would be a great party game. Controls are simple. Right, Left, Thrust, Fire and Hyperspace, and different screen options. (Stuff like Regular Gravity, Reverse Gravity, no inertia, etc.) I think the simple graphics are what makes this attractive for something like this. It would be awesome on my 70" TV with surround sound, LOL!

That's a hell of a chain of events.
Larry Rosenthal designed it Cinematronics agreed to produce it Tradewest bought Cinematronics and renamed it Leland Corporation WMS industries bought Tradewest WMS bought Midway/Bally WMS spun off Midway with all their video game business Midway went bankrupt, was rifled through by Warner Bros.
So: either Warner Bros. owns the rights to Space Wars, or the copyright is an asset held in a liquidating trust opened under court order to partially repay outstanding debtors during the bankruptcy process.
