"If only that were true..." Gaming Wish List

[jecca-neko]

Does anyone here have anything they want in gaming that doesn't exist right now? Maybe it's a particular gaming idea you have. Or maybe it is a sequel to your favorite game. Or maybe it's your favorite game given an extremely good remake.

Me, I'd like to see another Mario RPG. Not this Paper Mario stuff, something along the lines of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. Ninty and Squeenix are on good terms so it'd be nice to see this happen.

I'd also like to see a Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 3.

[Chacranajxy]

I want to see a Castlevania collection. Still. I don't care about new games -- I want the old ones in a collection. And I also want a DS version or a GBA version of Chrono Trigger. Preferably with the anime cut scenes or some bonus dungeons like Square's done with the FF Advance games... but yeah, I want a port that doesn't make you wait 10 seconds to go to your menu.

That's a great idea. I'd like to see that too.

Your Chrono Trigger idea is good too but I wasn't a super big fan of the game so it's not worth it to me to double dip, especially when the loading times didn't bother me so much.

A Gundam game on the lines of Mercenaries.

Ridge Racer Anthology. It's sad to think that with todays gamers, Ridge Racer seems best known for being a greatly overused/parodied Kaz Hirai catchphrase, a cash-in PSP "sequel" and just another arcade racer.
What I would love to see is a collection of the original, Ridge Racer Revolution, Rage Racer, Ridge Racer Type 4 and maybe even Ridge Racer 5 thrown in for good measure to show some of the younger gamers of today where the concept of arcade racers was mastered and the progression of the series as the games go on.
I'm particularly fond of compilations on the PSP but I would also love to see this for the PS3 with updated HD visuals.
Add in a nice collectors edition with a nice art/game history book, OSTs from all the games and maybe even a Reiko Nagase figure/signed pic and I could die happy.

Rival Schools Collection. Capcom love the PSP and they love compilations so this would be a perfect future PSP release. Rival Schools (and its Dreamcast sequel) is a great Capcom fighter with some great character designs.
I wouldn't mind if they added it to some sort of Street Fighter/Darkstalkers compilation either. I do own both the games but would love them together in the one package.

A Saturn compilation/collection for the PS3. All the great Saturn games on one or more disks would be heaven. I would settle for the rumoured Saturn game downloads on the PS3 but a few compilations would be easier.

Another EA Replay, this time including stuff like Skitchin' and some of the early FIFA games (say 94-96).

A new Bust a Groove game. The first one was one of the first rhythm action games to follow after the likes of Parappa and it got so much right and had fantastic music too.

That's all I can think of from the top of my head. As you can see, I'm a fan of cramming older games onto shiny new modern disks /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif

If that were true my boyfriend would be first in line to pre-order. Or, at least, one of the first.

You mentioning a Saturn game collection reminds me how much I really want someone to release NiGHTS on some other console. I want to play that game again!

[ADC]

A partial list of my wishes:

• "Powered Up" versions of Megaman games 2–8. Maybe X–X6, too.
• FFs 7–9 on a modern console (preferably Wii). I tried to play FF8 recently, and it was dated and ugly — and it's the best-looking FF on the PSX!
• Chrono Trigger and Mario RPG on the DS. Final Fantasy Tactics, too (maybe with FFTA as a bonus). And a new FFT on Wii, preferably with bonus content unlocked by the FFT/ds card or even with its own DS component.
• A collection of the Final Fantasy Legend games on DS with their original SaGa titles intact.
• Tecmo Bowl! New game with the classic style. Shame that EA has an exclusive NFL licence and Tecmo couldn't use the real teams and players.
• I want Ambrosia Software to make a Mac OS X version of Harry the Handsome Executive. That game was too damned awesome.
• More 2D Metroid games on the DS. Hunters sucked elephant testes.
• I want Sony to pull their heads out of their asses and realize that their console launches seriously blow. They need to wait until they have enough hardware before launching the product.
• More Parasite Eve in the traditional style. It's not a Biohazard game; it shouldn't play like one. I think the Active Dimension Battle system (FF12) would work really well for it, though it's not really necessary if it remains a one-person party.
• I want EA to bring back Mixmaster Mike for the next SSX and ditch the licensed music. This was the major flaw of SSX3. Wouldn't mind if they brought back Rahzel to talk shit to the gamers. (SSX Tricky is still my favorite of the bunch.)

I think most of this won't happen, of course. But it's on the list, so I want it.

Cromartie High School

Pretty much all of them!!

A Final Fantasy VII remake that lives up to any hype the fans could throw at it. Also, a NEW classic RPG that plays and looks like FF VI. I miss the feel of the old games. To be able to play a new one with a new story would be a dream come true.

[Johnny]

Reading over my first post which was all games, I've just remembered one that is never going to happen but I would love to see above all else...a Sega comeback.
Much as I am a fan of Microsoft (well, for the games/consoles anyway) and Nintendo, and have most love for Sony, I'd love to see Sega re-appear with a new console and take back their crown.

Even if it was, like that rumoured SNK console, just for arcade ports (considering Sega practically rule Japanese arcades) IMO it'd be worth it. I know that's what the Dreamcast was, amongst other things, intended to be and is one of the reasons that it only really did well in Japan but they have so many great game series and if Sonic Team had something to focus on (developing new games for the console, releasing a Burning Rangers update etc) I think they could pull of some amazing stuff.

I'm someone who makes no apologies for being a Sega "fanboy" and just playing Genesis Collection on the PSP reminds me of how much they ruled my childhood and how much I'd love to see them back with the big boys.

[Suwako Moriya]

I'd iike to see a remake of Romancing SaGa 2 and Romancing SaGa 3. In general I'd like a new SaGa game to be made and come out here. The idea of remakes of the three GB SaGas for DS would be nice as well. Still besides a completely new entry in the series, above else I'd want a remake of Romancing SaGa 3. Mainly because that's the one with the wandering girl.

While it's not exactly a huge want, but sometimes I wish Capcom would actually take a break from deciding "Okay now time for the new Megaman series" and actually create an entry in the original series. Say, I don't know Megaman 9?

I still want Seiken Densetsu 3 to get an official "___ of Mana" name. The best way of course is a remake and to be released in the U.S. A remake that hopefully improves on the original without ruining the game. Which is the same for any remake.

There are other things I can think of, but in general it would be remakes of games that never made it here. Sure a remake of Romancing SaGa 3 may have only a 20% chance of coming out here, but that's still better than the 0% chance the SNES (Super Famicom) version would have given the age. As well as sequels to series I'd love.

Speaking of, I had this thought last night. Since Sony has, errr, borrowed some ideas from Nintendo, what if Nintendo were to "borrow" an idea in return? Meaning make Virtual Console games playable on the DS? The way it would work it Nintendo would have to make it allowable to transfer a VC game to an SD Flash Card. At the same time, a small emulator would be put on the SD Flash Card so when you stick the card in the DS it can play the game.

I would love to play some Virtual Console games on the go... but unfortunately I don't see Nintendo doing this because of how afraid they are of pirating. If they did this there is just more room for pirates to figure out how to hack things.

First issue is, they'd have to make a component to go in Slot-2 to hold the SD card. Slot-2 is a hairy business: Do they make just one module? Is it original DS size? DS Lite size? Do they make both? Just from a logistic standpoint, it's a bit of a pain. Second, they have to make a reasonable DRM scheme for it to prevent or at least curtail the piracy problem, as you mention, without preventing functionality. Third, you have emulation overhead. It's not an issue on Wii because it's got almost the same guts as my PowerBook, but the DS is powerful enough on its own for N64-level graphics but not much more. Emulation slows things down a fair bit. So you might not be able to get N64 games onto the DS (though NES, SNES, Genesis, and TG16 games should present no problem).

Having said all that, I agree that Nintendo should add this functionality to the DS. Those old games should be portable. I think it's more likely than my wish for an OS X Harry, but not much more.

Oh, I want to add one thing: When Square Enix get around to remastering FFT for the DS, they should very carefully work in the Bangaa, Seeqs, Nu Mou, Moogles, and Viera /images/graemlins/noseblef.gif as playable characters. Maybe even make a couple of the story characters from those races. It feels a bit strange now, having a Hume-only FFT. But then, I've been playing FF12 over 90 hours now and have grown accustomed to the awesomeness of Fran.

[Mateo_home]

Here's some of mine:

-Capcom gets back into making fighting games. A little tired of ports. Well, there is that rumored Street Fighter 4.
-Meta Knight gets his own game.
-SCEA discovers the magic of 2D/sprite/old games and puts them on their new consoles.

It's kind of hard to work Moogles into Final Fantasy Tactics given that they are supposed to be <span style='color:#dddddd;background:#dddddd'>extinct</span>. I suppose you could decide to throw that fact out the window since it's more of a side mention.

Ah, but you could always have Ramza use Worker 8 and a variety of monsters. Remember your Red Chocobo can drop a meteor from the sky! Okay so monsters aren't as customizable compared to humans, but well that's just the way thngs. Finally you can enjoy the fun of "Wait how does a single monster lay an egg? Are they male or female? Wait that means that.... aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!".

[GetterBeam]

Pie in the sky so delicious it is an affront to all others in creation eh? I'll nibble....just a nibble.

-Nintendo somehow buys out then resurrects/revamps/enhances/etc the Wizardry franchise/proerty for the Wii. From there, all hell breaks loose with quality and potential.

-Planeshift somehow makes rapid leaps in progress in 07...enough to start to truly realize the potential of their game.

-I want an ultra SRW game...one which includes everything prior in the series plus all the shows that haven't made it in yet that we all know should. Big time music and graphics, steal bits from Scramble Commander and ZOE: FoM, put it on the Wii and somehow work in voice/mic support to aid in screaming your best attacks for dmg/accuracy modification!

-Konami makes the Castlevania game they WERE ORIGINALLY gonna make that wound up as Castlevania 64. I read the old magazine interviews all those years ago in the early dev...surely I'm not the only one? What could've been...INDEED

List more later perhaps lest I get too hot and bothered...plus I gotta go make my sauce.

Aye, there's the rub. With all those monsters and monster eggs, where do you put your people? You only get 16 positions, so even a marginal bestiary forces you to get rid of too many story characters. And even if you're not into the story characters because you've already spent so much time and JP on the randoms, the argument still applies. No, with the exception of Worker 8 and the non-/images/graemlins/noseblef.gif-ified Reis, it's a Hume lineup for me. And the first thing I do when the time comes is /images/graemlins/noseblef.gif-ify Reis.

It's not as if it's a Suikôden game and you have 108 personnel slots, after all.

And yes, I realize that /images/graemlins/noseblef.gif does not generally apply to sprites. But then, see what happened to the computer in Paper Mario after Princess Peach took a shower.

The same thing can be said about the generics you decide to hire/keep. They too take up space that can be used for one of the 16 story characters. It's just that a single monster can also lay eggs and take up extra space faster.

However in the end, they don't expect you to use everyone under the sun in a single play through. Maybe one time, you'll collect all 16 story characters. Perhaps another time, you'll use generics. Still another time, you'll use monsters.

It's all part of the idea of restricted customization. Where the player is given a choice, but at the same time actually has to make a choice. Kind of like how in FFT, you can't just slap every single "support" on one member. You actually have to decide which support to use.

In terms of the Princess Peach thing, I haven't played Paper Mario. However when it comes to sprites in general, I have been attracted to them in the past. That would include Rydia of Final Fantasy 4 for example. *Uses the I was younger excuse card* Also let's just say Reis was one of the more rewarding parts of doing the side quest stuff in chapter 4 of FFT.

Of course it helps in the case of some sprites you can get a decent portrait of the character. There is also finding artwork to help fill in the gaps. Plus to be honest sometimes one gets way too much into specific characters. *pleases guilty*.

RoBoCo Habitation Diary~Together with KOS-MOS: The Game

Basically, your standard ren-ai game... but with KOS-MOS.

You can take her to the aquarium for dates, play games with her at the summer festival, go clothes shopping with her, and if you work really hard at building up your love-love points, you can even take a vacation with her to the beach. Swimsuits in the sun, iced noodles in the shade, and if you do everything right, she might just ask you to put sunblock on her back.

I think this formula has some promise to it...

The Wii launch should be the minimum expectation, not the best result. I don't recall Nintendo ever having to worry about massive product shortages; the SNES and Cube came off just fine, and the N64 wasn't bad. Nor were the GBA and DS launches the kind of disaster that Sony has now pulled off twice.

Worker 8 is a "special" monster, but all in all, he's not really that great. Good range, but very limited mobility and the inability to use healing magic on him (though of course, offensive magic can't hurt him either...). You could probably get better use out of a Red Chocobo, Tiamat, and several other more powerful monsters. There's the Byblos too, who while isn't that great either, is an interesting monster to use.

And Reis is pretty cool as well. Definitely one of the more unique human characters since she basically has the powers and stat growth of a monster in her base class but can still use some equips and secondary abilities. /images/graemlins/happy.gif She was my savior when I happened to encounter the rare Super Monster Battle on Bariaus Hill, since she can do 100% Invite on many of the enemies there. Even then, it was really difficult and I barely made it through the battle without anyone dying... (still quite fun, though)

I love those Super Monster Battles. They're frickin' hard, even if you're a powerful bunch. Even better, though, is when you run into a group of people all the same class. Fought a battle on Grog Hill against 15 or so Monks, and that was entertainment. It was basically a battle to see if I could absorb their first attacks and knock half of them out and keep them knocked out (because Monks have Revive). Nasty battle.

Yeah, Reis is awesome. She's almost as unbalancing as Thunder God Cid.

The Monk battle shows you how much raw power the class has, and excellent abilities to match. It's critical to have them early in the game since they're so easy to get and use (Ramza usually spends a good bit of time as a Monk in the early chapters in my games).

And actually, that's 11 Monks. You can never start out with more than 11 enemies in a battle. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

It's hard for anyone to be as unbalancing as TG Cid, well other than a Wizard with mastered Calc skills and magic. /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif I think Beowulf is pretty darned powerful to use, pretty much being a super Oracle with all of their fun debilitating magic at no charge time cost. A lot of the enemies he can't inflict status ailments on are boss monsters with lots of HP (so Drain ends up being very powerful on them)

Interesting. I never really used Beowulf, and my Oracles were more there for the good offense (Sticks are strong in that game), so I never looked at it that way. Maybe after I've finished FF12, FF3, and FF5, I'll have to dive into FFT and see about it.

And yeah, it was 11 Monks. I couldn't remember, so I threw out a random number and hoped it sounded good. But it's still a lot of Monks! Fought another of those with Ninjas, and that was nasty.

That would definitely work as both games would help promote each other. SD2 having being released here as Secret of Mana would have the nostalgia factor. While SD3 would have the finally factor. Where you're finally able to play in English in a legit form. You can see the same effect in FF Origins and FF Anthology.

I think they also have the highest attack power bonuses, but I don't remember that for sure. And the range factor is huge: There's no point hitting a dude just to have him counter and scrag your ass. No EXP, no JP, do not pass Go, do not collect $200. Yin Yang Magic was never an huge draw for me, but high attack power and two-square range makes for the awesomeness.

Xenogears COMPLETE! The original Xenogears remade with enhancenments for the PS3! Fill in all the little details that were rushed in the original Xenogears.

DDR: ITG! All DDR songs on one DVD w/ITG2 arcade interface!

Silent Hill: another remake wish for the PS3...although, considering how I didn't like the RE and MGS remake for GCN, I really shouldn't put much hope on any improvements. The re-recorded voice acting killed the remakes of said games.

If Radiant Silvergun 3 came out on the 360, that would push me over the edge and force me to get the Japanese system. I'm close to pulling the trigger, but unless there's something just mind-blowingly awesome... I can't do it yet. It's $300 which isn't too bad... eh, who knows... maybe there'll be a reasonable mod later on down the road.

Unfortunately this is one of the least likely ideas that I like yet. /images/graemlins/depresse.gif It would be great though. I also wish we could've gotten the other Xenogears episodes. Xenosaga doesn't really count as it's different.

Hmmm....
-Star Ocean 2 for PSP
-Resident Evil 4: We Were Just Kidding, Umbrella Still Exists
-Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask for the DS (if that's possible)
-Final Fantasy I-VI for GBA or DS the way they were originally presented
-A WWE game other then Smackdown! that doesn't suck ass
-The Dark Tower: The Game
-Final Fantasy: And We Mean It This Time
-Katamari Damacy for the DS

I'd like to see something like an updated version of Seven Cities of Gold; the sequel Ozark put out just really wasn't that good. Really fun exploring game. I still remember the time I chose random continents, and got this super Island completely full of Incas. I had gold coming out my ears.

I'd like to see a third Fallout game, or just another game in that genre. Wasteland was awesome back in the day,it hooked me on post apocaplytic RPGs right off.

I'd like to see a updated version of Lords of Magic. What I wanted from Lords of Magic was an improved Lords of the Realm with magic added, not that, that....THING. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif Such a great disappointment that was.

In the complete pipe dream category, I'd like to see a sequel to Loom. Or a MMORPG of Deer Hunter Avenger,whichever.

Yes! I would love that!

Although Resident Evil 4 as it exists now is alright, I still hav e some problems with it; don't like it as much as the rest in the series.

[Fudce]

here are mine, some of these have already been mentioned, and bare in mind that I'm speaking from a UK PoV.

<ul type="square"> Final Fantasy VII remake
Suikoden I+II to be released in english language
Suikoden III to be released in Europe
Final Fantasy Tactics to be released in Europe
English Language Suikogaidens
Chrono Trigger in Europe[/list]

That's all for now, but I can probably come up with plenty more

Exactly. How can you see this? I mean, just take the recent FF games. FFXII is getting a second game on the DS. FFXIII is getting three incarnations. And wasn't it already confirmed there will be a FFXIV at some point? Or maybe I confirmed it in my head that Square Enix will make Final Fantasy games until they (the company) dies.

That's something that needs no confirmation. Then again I for one will not be complaining. Still if they're going to do spin-offs and side games. I want a bit of variety. Like there should be one for FF6 starring Relm. Paint to save the universe.

Hey, I'd play that over Dirge of Cerberus any day. I like Vincent, but the idea of turning Final Fantasy into a 3rd person shooter is such a turn off.

Maybe FF14 will be the true sequel to FF7! Mmm, Tifa. (I actually tried to get Yuffie on the date — there's a FAQ on it at the usual place — but I ended up with Barret instead. Which would have been fine if he'd worn the sailor suit, just for the laughs. Loafy'd better not read anything into that.)

And they'd be foolish to stop making FFs. Sure, their development costs are in the tens of millions USD, but they basically have an office at the US Treasury Department to occupy whenever a new one drops, so who cares? It's not as if they're bad games (except for FF8).

I agree that it'd be stupid to stop making FF games. They help fund whatever the hell Square could possibly want to do (Square is currently in the process of buying Hungary) and the games are consistantly good (including FF8... so there.) I don't see future games in the series being a problem since they're almost all standalone titles and they do rework the formula when necessary. If Square stopped making FF games, the only difference would be that FFXIV would be called "Emo Kid RPG Super Buster Upper" or something. Changing the titles would not change Square's games.
