Edit: GTA3, too, although all that's doing is inviting someone to come along and tell me how shitty GTA3 is.
Fire Emblem: You would think that an RPG series as important as this one would've gotten a few of it's games released here by now, but God forbid that NoA decides to release Nintendo Puzzle Collection over Sword of Fire. Granted, Sword of Fire is supposed to show up at E3, but there's no reason to bet on it.
Metal Gear 2: Kinda like the series' equalivent of Dracula X. Possibly the best game in the series (MGS1 was just a 32-bit remake of this), but the fact that it was only released for MSX2 late during the system's life ruined any possible chance of a domestic release. Snake's Revenge was a nice alternative, but it's not the same. Although, considering the popularity of the MGS series, you would think by now that Konami would've rereleased it by now along with the original, but it seems that KCEJ wants to leave old games in the past (nevermind that they're having Silicon Knights remake MGS1).
Policenauts SCEA's asinine smoking ban and the Saturn's premature death prevented Policenauts from being released here. Of course, when MGS1 became a huge hit, Sony suddenly approved of Policenauts and Kojima became all stingy about it. Go figure!
All Kunio-kun games after Nintendo World Cup: Okay, so maybe the series may had been a bit too Japanese for all of it to be release here, but maybe they should have released Ice Challenge and Kunio-kun no Jidaigeki here at least. Heck, American Technos should have published all of the console Double Dragon games after the first one themselves rather than rely on Acclaim or Tradewest.
Dracula X: I want to see what all the fuzz is about.
