In the era of remakes and remasters, what niche game would you like to see receive the treatment? (sh.itjust.works)

I know that remakes and remasters are contentious, but let's pretend whatever game in question you're thinking of is handled with the utmost care by your favourite devs and they absolutely nail it.

Mine would be Shadow of Memories (called Shadow of Destiny in North America). It's legitimately one of my favourite games of all time but it kinda flew under the radar and I haven't met many people who know of it let alone played it. Seeing it get modern graphics, maybe some expanded mechanics, would be soooo cool.

Point & click adventures of olden times. Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Islands 1 & 2 got remasters, hell, Monkey island got even a NEW game.

I'd insta-buy on Indiana Jones & Fate of Atlantis -remaster.

...But, tbh, still rather have a new game in same style.

Solid choices! Just recently had my partner play through Curse of Monkey Island (the best one, fight me).

Curse is pretty great, imo. The higher resolution cartoon style doesn't feel as "vintage" as the first two games.

But, how do you want to fight, insult lemmy-commenting? You comment like a cow! /s
