http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/2009/12/custom_1260042221231_iphonedl.jpgThe 1983 laserdisc classic Dragon's Lair (http://kotaku.com/tag/dragonslair/) will follow its cousin Space Ace to the iPhone; Electronic Arts (http://kotaku.com/tag/electronicarts/) is handling the port. Now you can enjoy Dirk the Daring's inquisitive grunting and Princess Daphne's coquettish cooing in a convenient portable format.
The game will feature an arcade mode, faithful to the content of the original cabinet game, and a home mode that includes extra scenes. Space Ace, the other Don Bluth animated game on the iPhone/iPod Touch (http://kotaku.com/tag/ipodtouch/), was $4.99. No word on price point here, and delivery is listed as just "December 2009."
Man, I remember this thing cost 50 CENTS. You whippersnappers probably have no idea what balls it took for an arcade game to charge that in 1983. I never beat it in the arcades but I did 15 years later on a port to the Mac - after dying about 80 times. On the first board.
Lead on, adventurer ... your quest awaits!
