Elite Systems is a British <a href="Video_game" title="Video game">video game</a> developer and publisher established in 1984 as Richard Wilcox Software.<a href="#cite_note-crash9-1">[1]</a> It is known for producing <a href="Home_computer" title="Home computer">home computer</a> conversions of popular <a href="Arcade_games" class="mw-redirect" title="Arcade games">arcade games</a>.<a href="#cite_note-YS5-2">[2]</a> Elite also published compilations of games on the Hit-Pak label and budget price re-releases on the Encore label.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

Under the name Richard Wilcox Software, only one title was published: Blue Thunder for the <a href="ZX_Spectrum" title="ZX Spectrum">ZX Spectrum</a>, <a href="Atari_8-bit_computers" title="Atari 8-bit computers">Atari 8-bit computers</a>, and <a href="Commodore_64" title="Commodore 64">Commodore 64</a>. In August 1984, the group was relaunched as Elite Systems,<a href="#cite_note-ys8-3">[3]</a> expanding the team to include graphic designers Rory Green and Jon Harrison; programmers Neil A. Bate, Chris Harvey, Andy Williams and Stephen Lockley; administrators Paul Smith and Pat Maisey; and Wilcox's brother Steve handled sales and marketing.<a href="#cite_note-crash9-1">[1]</a> Its first release under the new Elite Systems label was <a href="Kokotoni_Wilf" title="Kokotoni Wilf">Kokotoni Wilf</a>,<a href="#cite_note-crash9-1">[1]</a> which also carried the first of their anti-counterfeiting holograms on the cassette inlay card.<a href="#cite_note-ys8-3">[3]</a>

By 1986, the company was developing many home computer licenses of arcade machines. Their <a href="Aldridge" title="Aldridge">Aldridge</a>-based headquarters housed a row of arcade cabinets for games that were being converted. Their hardware had been hacked so the team could analyse the games to ensure an accurate, licensed conversion.<a href="#cite_note-YS5-2">[2]</a> Three of their conversions, <a href="Commando_(video_game)" title="Commando (video game)">Commando</a>, <a href="Ghosts_'n_Goblins" title="Ghosts 'n Goblins">Ghosts 'n Goblins</a> and <a href="Paperboy_(video_game)" title="Paperboy (video game)">Paperboy</a>, were among the UK's top ten best-selling home video games of 1986.<a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a>

At the 1986 <a href="Golden_Joystick_Awards" title="Golden Joystick Awards">Golden Joystick Awards</a>, Elite was awarded "Software House of the Year" by <a href="Computer_and_Video_Games" title="Computer and Video Games">Computer and Video Games</a> magazine<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> and received a "Game of the Year" award for Paperboy from the British software industry the following year.<a href="#cite_note-retrogamer65-6">[6]</a>

Elite launched its first budget label, £2.99 Classics in July 1986<a href="#cite_note-retrogamer65-6">[6]</a> achieving chart success with re-releases of older titles from other software houses such as Scuba Dive, <a href="Full_Throttle_(1984_video_game)" title="Full Throttle (1984 video game)">Full Throttle</a> and <a href="Skool_Daze" title="Skool Daze">Skool Daze</a>. The label was closed before the end of the year when developers took legal action against the company for non-payment of royalties.<a href="#cite_note-pcw299-7">[7]</a> A new budget label, Encore, was launched in 1988<a href="#cite_note-zzap40-8">[8]</a><a href="#cite_note-zzap39-9">[9]</a> with its first 5 titles, <a href="Airwolf_(video_game)" title="Airwolf (video game)">Airwolf</a>, <a href="Bomb_Jack" title="Bomb Jack">Bomb Jack</a>, <a href="Battleships_(video_game)" title="Battleships (video game)">Battleships</a>, <a href="Saboteur_(1985_video_game)" title="Saboteur (1985 video game)">Saboteur</a>, and <a href="Frank_Bruno's_Boxing" class="mw-redirect" title="Frank Bruno's Boxing">Frank Bruno's Boxing</a> all coming from Elite's back-catalogue.<a href="#cite_note-zzap39-9">[9]</a>

Elite Systems began creating video games for the <a href="Nintendo_Entertainment_System" title="Nintendo Entertainment System">NES</a> and <a href="Game_Boy" title="Game Boy">Game Boy</a> in the early 1990s through its associated development house MotiveTime.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a>

In 2010, the company began selling versions of classic ZX Spectrum games licensed from the original developers for iOS and Android systems and in January 2014 they announced plans to crowdfund a Spectrum-themed <a href="Bluetooth" title="Bluetooth">Bluetooth</a> keyboard, the Recreated ZX Spectrum, that would attach to mobile devices.<a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a><a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a><a href="#cite_note-13">[13]</a> Elite Systems took down the ZX Spectrum: Elite Collection app the following month, due to complaints from authors that they had never been paid royalties.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a> Steve Wilcox responded in a statement on their website<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> where he claimed he was "working towards" making all outstanding payments with 28 days and that the games were being withdrawn from sale in the meantime.

In April 2014, it was reported that Elite Systems had fully repaid the overdue royalties and cancelled the contracts it had with the unpaid developers.<a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a>

Wired described the finished device, which was styled as an original Spectrum 48k keyboard, as "absolutely gorgeous"<a href="#cite_note-Rundle-18">[18]</a> but said it was ultimately more of an expensive novelty than an actual Spectrum. In July 2019, Eurogamer reported that many of the orders had yet to be delivered due to a dispute between Elite Systems and their manufacturer, Eurotech.<a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a>
