    Is there any reason why Star Wars (edit:films) isn’t in the Star Trek universe? If not, somebody probably made a Darth Vader dueling holosuite program.

      I don’t see why it wouldn’t!

      Although it would be so old to them that it would be like us making a swordfighting game about Macbeth or something.

      I mean, it’s in “a galaxy far, far away”, and pretty much all of Star Trek takes place in the Milky Way Galaxy - the only time they ever leave is in, true to its name, TNG:”Where No One Has Gone Before”, when the traveller sends them to M-33.

      It could be conceivable that anything that happened in Star Wars is just in a very distant part of the universe that would take millions or billions of years for any ship to get from there.

      Though honestly, I personally like to imagine that Tom Paris really likes Star Wars, but when he brings it up, everyone thinks it’s just another one of his campy 20th century films.

        I mean, it is, isn’t it?
