What games do you think would be great if they'd get properly remastered and would be a hit if it was done? (lemmy.ml)

I believe this will mostly affects games which were lacking in technology.

I'd personally LOVE to see The Sims 1 or The Sims 2 re-released with performance and resolution upgrades, and, most importantly, made to be open world. Since they're older, I believe they could very easily render the entire map like The Sims 3, but with the charm of TS1 or TS2.

I cannot think of other games, since most games I see as adequate, whereas TS1 and TS2 were bound by system performance during their respective times.

Sega Saturn had a title called Fighters Megamix that (in my opinion) was the first to bring franchise characters together for a battle royal.

Virtua Fighter, Fighting Vipers, Sonic, Daytona, Virtua Cop and more all rules it out in wrestling rings and it was amazing. Would love a remake.

Fighters Megamix was the best!!! I would quite literally hand over one of my kidneys for AAA remake.

Oh yeah, and I really think it was Sega who started the whole company cast of characters fighting each other thing. Like always, it's too bad that they never followed a great idea long enough to be the one to make money from it.

Well... SNK had released a few installments of King of Fighters by the time Fighters Megamix was released, but other than that, yeah.

Sega definitely beat Smash Brothers and other titles to the punch.

I agree. They should have stuck with their ideas for several installments. Sega has way too many one-off games that are fantastic and deserve sequels.

Oh damn, I totally forgot that KoF was a mix-up like that. I wish that I had more access to SNK hardware and fighters back in the day. Those SNES World Heroes ports just didn't cut it.
