Are there any classic games that you would like to see given a modern sequel? Remakes seem to be a popular thing these days, with the PSP giving some classics a change of veneer and gameplay a little kick. So which ones would you want?

~Wizards and Warriors - This would be awesome in 3d.
~A Boy and His Blob - Still in limbo for the DS. ;_;
~Jackal - First NES game to use a power metal soundtrack.
~Chrono Trigger - Sadly, this doesn't seem likely at present time.

Now you're talking!

Chrono Trigger, definately.  I would love to see this updated.  I enjoyed playing Chrono Cross, but it never felt like it belonged in the same universe as Chrono Trigger.  CT had some terrific music, too, I recall.

Final Fantasy VII... I know I'm opening up a can of worms here, but I simply could never get over the wooden block hands on the characters.  I would also love to see a more comprehensible translation.

Phantasy Star... from SEGA.  I still own the original Sega Master System and cartridge for this game!  I've heard there is a remake already in Japan, but where is it for us poor americans?

STARFLIGHT... from Binary Systems and EA.  I know I keep bringing this game up, but for goshsakes, go play it!

Good topic.

Lol, I agree with FFVII.

FFVI.

It's not old, but Suikoden 4, that game fucked up.

Secret of Mana 3 (not released in English).

I'm sure there are others, but I can' think of them atm...

Secret of Mana 3 is a great game. I love the Mana style. Also, Smash T.V.! I used to play that all the time, too! There is an Xbox 360 arcade game called "Geometry Wars". Its not like Smash TV, but the control scheme is similar, in that one stick moves and one shoots. I love that game.

Vagrant Story is open ended, and they indeed were planning a sequel, but because the game didnt sell so well, they scrapped it. Bastards :( they only have themselves to blame too, Square hardly promoted it at all, instead giving all their promotional power to FFVIII ;9

Haha a boy and his blob <3 I totally remember that. I liked Galaxy 5000 too :3. An update to the Blaster Master Franchise would be awesome.

Yeah. I guess it's really really really awful.

I would love to see Seiken Densetsu 3 out and remade in 3d.
Super Metroid. None of the ne games can compare, except maybe Metroid Prime, damn, the Metroid Prime itself was really tough...but it ate my phazon.  :snes:

And also, King of Dragons! That game rocked!!!!

The Metal Gear games are already genius. You can't really make a better cinematic experience. Blaster Master would make an excellent remake, I'm embarrassed I didn't think of it. Remember that crab boss in the underwater stage? It took me so long to beat him.

I just used the glitch where you pause the game while a grenade is exploding on his face and it continues do damage while it's paused >=)

That's doesn't work on the crab, i tried it. :( I'm not talking about the things with long claws and a spiky vagina on their head. I mean the crab that spits bubbles.

Yeah, I can see it being cool on DS.  I also just read about morrowind.  Picture this:  Morrowind, good (better than the xbox) graphics, using Wiimote for different types of weapons (thats just awesome), with the half life two physics engine. ragdoll deaths, movable things, etc.

Megaman legends was not the best Megaman game ever. It was hardly even a Megaman game. I can't wait until they Power Up Megaman 2 and 3. Those are the best.
