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.

    • Chrono Trigger, in SE’s HD-2D style. Do what they just did for Live a Live, change little to nothing but make it really pretty.
    • Final Fantasy 8. Why 8? Because it has the most room for improvement. I expect SE not to keep FF remakes faithful, and 8 is the one that will benefit from that. Just retell the story in a better game that doesn’t punish you for leveling up.
    • Kid Icarus Uprising. This doesn’t need more than a straight port really. One thing I’d really love to see though is a more competitive Light vs. Dark that restricts players to base weapons only, no min-maxing in PvP.
    • Any classic Tales games that was never released in the west. They keep rereleasing newer entries, but where are the 2D classics? I especially want Destiny DC/2, Legendia, and Phantasia PSP.
    • This is an extra impossible pipe dream for several reasons, but it’s my list and I’m allowed to dream. I wish the Boktai series could come back in some form. Silliest way to do it could be to sell it with a USB-C Solar Sensor attachment for the Switch, but that’s extra not happening. Even if we have to lose the original hardware though, I’d just like to see this game made available in some form…

      I might be in the minority here, but I’ve been loving the FF7 remakes. I would definitely buy 8 getting the same treatment!
