[Video Games] Old-School games you wish they'd remake.

I second all of those!



And I also add:


Powerball: Still hasn't been anything quite like it.


Streets of Rage 2: Best side-scrolling beat-'em-up ever!

 

Call of Duty.

 

They need to make a remake of the original Pokemon (red/blue) for wii. The story mode and towns should be the same, just make it into the wii experience, it would be bad ass

 

Jurassic Park for the Super Nintendo...

 

I loved this game.

 

Oh, And Earthworm Jim...

Did they update Spyhunter?
Cyberball

Rocket River

 

BattleToads Double Dragon

Breath of Fire series

 

Kid Icarus (NES... I know they're coming out with it, but it's not here yet)
Guardian Heroes (Saturn... this game was like a cross between final fight and fable)
Secret of Mana (SNES... an RPG that uses the Wiimote for real time, non-turn based combat, and online multiplayer? Hell yes)
Blades of Steel (NES... kinda the NBA jam version of hockey?)
Star Tropics (NES... Mike needs another adventure!)
Megaman (NES... I know they came out with Megaman 9 recently, but we're talking updated versions, right?)
Ghouls n' Ghosts (NES... keep it linear, but a 3D update of this would be SO cool)
Sunset Riders (SNES... Red Dead Redemption is as close as we're going to get I imagine)
Castlevania (NES... this would kick ass on the Wii, whip action!)
Road Rash (Multiplatform... this game was insanely fun as 2 player, I can't imagine the hilarity in 16+ multiplayer)
Actraiser (SNES... this could be an epic remake, infinitely deep and tons of ways to take the story and gameplay)

 

Battletoads

Kunio-kun series

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kunio-kun_(series)

 

The megatraveller DOS computer game rocked. There are 5 characters you can play, and as a kid I used to name them after the Rockets starting 5. It was hilarious when negotiating with some prisoner or something and the text would read something like...


'Olajuwon attempts to negotiate with the captain'

'negotiations failed'

'Olajuwon fires sub-machine gun at captain'

Then a huge fight would break out. I loved it.



There were at least two games in this series.

Also Road War 2000. It was another DOS computer game. It was basically like Mad Max. You would try and get a gang and different automobiles and fight other gangs and their automobiles. The best thing to get was a Greyhound bus because it could hold like a hundred gang members and that was good in a fight. Once you got over a hundred gang members you were pretty tough in that game.

 

Elite

 

This would get my vote.

They are making this for the PS3. Read about it in the PlayStation Magazine. It looks pretty cool, kind of a cross between God of War and Shadow of the Colossus. Still a ways before it comes out though. Don't know about other platforms but I wouldn't be surprised as I don't remember hearing anything about it being an exclusive.

 

I also wish they'd come out with a video game that did the Indiana Jones franchise justice. All of those games sucked ass. Even Star Wars got at least one or two decent video games to its name.

 

Goldeneye... Oh wait...
