Yeah there's actually an electronic SW Battleship out from Tiger Electronic (I think) or something...  I know this because I have it.  It's not in a fold-up case like that, it's a full buildable board, but all it is, basically, is electronic battleship with SW sounds and ships...

The cool thing at the time (I got my set on clearance) was that you could order more ships and pieces and there was a game that featured calling in back-up and new ships...  It's really interesting.

The game has a single-player feature to play the computer too.  I lose every time to it, and think it's sort of BS but it's still fun.  I've played the kids at the regular game though and it's pretty great.

Mine was an OTC fold up one... I don't have it any more though but I;m 99% sure it did fold up it was released at the same time as the films were re released

I'm unable to find the original game's images anywhere...  I was gonna post them for comparison.  I'm guessing it's the exact same game, the physical build of it is just different.  The one I have is vastly different than this fold-up one though for certain.  I don't think I ever saw the fold-up one myself actually...  I got mine at KB on clearance.  it has lights/sounds and evrything, and sounds pretty much just like this other one in every way but the way the game board looks.
