If you could have a remake of one game...

NiGHTS on the XBOX. The controller would best fit the game, and you'd have all that power. Oh god I'm drooling just thinking about it.

Contra: Hard Corps. There are a lot of little gripes I have with the graphics, and while playing recently I've been thinking how it could be done with newer hardware. It's already an amazing playing game, but I'd love to play a flashier remake that much more. And more buttons would also help; give bomb its own button, etc.

The same thoughts have crossed my mind as well. Imagine this game in full hi res mode, with gigantic colorful sprites, and digitally remastered sound track.

I would buy that in an instant.

Bah. The first Mega Man's perfect the way it is, in all its 8 bit glory. The quintessential early NES game.

Me, I'd love to see a remake of Dragon Warrior IV, with the Dragon Warrior VII engine. Think of how crazy that would be.

The old Phantasy Stars could use a tune up, too. Like, less levelling up, less fights, less repetitive dungeons and less you getting your fool ass kicked. And I guess some more animation. Lunar quality cutscenes would kick.

Xenogears.

Less dialogue, cleaner sprites, and a second disc that doesn't suck.

I made a thread like this a long time ago called "Sequels or Remakes that you most want to see". Anyway, a Mach Rider sequel/remake has been long overdue, so would be a Maniac Mansion remake.

all metroid games.

metroid 1 with 128 bit hand-drawn graphics and special effects. can be direct remake, or resident evil style remake.

ditto for metroid 2.

super metroid was damn near perfect, but it'd be nice to see that one also get a 128 bit graphical face lift.

oooooh, metroid 1 and 2 with super metroids graphics and sound would kick so much ass! aslo a castlevania 2 simons quest with symphony of the night style graphics and sound would be heaven.

Dammit...how could Metroid slip my mind?

Samus in all her 128-bit glory...oh hell yeah.

Perfect Dark.

Imagine this game with a blazing framerate, improved AI, crisp graphics, online play and redbook audio. The game had everything else going for it, it was just ahead of its time.

I think the Metroid games are perfect the way they are, but I'm ticked that they never made a fully colored version of Metroid II like they did with Link's Awakening.
