Wiehahn Diederichs, Gearburn writes :"What would the world of video games be without its champions, a string of digital personalities that has kept us captivated and immersed in their strange fictional worlds? While most of these characters barely see the light of day and quickly disappear into obscurity, there are a select few that have stood the test of time. And to this day are able to rally us behind their cause.
We’ve decided to pay homage to these characters, so that they and all who read this may know that they are loved in all their senseless glory."

"I'm sure I deserve a lot of criticism, but I don't think my team or companies deserve all the criticism. I could take a lot of that blame myself. But ultimately I need to believe in the mission," he said.

We explore the Sega classics that are ripe for revival! From Panzer Dragoon Saga to Virtua Fighter, discover why these legendary games deserve a comeback on next-gen consoles. Dive into a nostalgic journey and see which Sega titles are set to captivate a new generation of gamers in 2024.
Turned based Phantasy Star and Shinning Force remain at the top of my list of Sega IPs that need to return. At the very least I'd take a Shining Force collection that has 1,2,3, CD and the Game Gear entries.
I was hesitant to put these two on. I've personally played more PSO than the RPG version. And shame on me, I don't remember much about Shining Force to talk about it properly.
That said, so many Sega licences deserve their place in this list.
A new Phantasy Star in the numbered series would be amazing. Shining Force too. But I’d settle on some collections as that’s probably the best we will get
I don't trust Sega to do a proper comeback. The games will be just remastered and/or monetized to death.
What about Samus?
Hmmm. When you have to literally reimagine and recreate a character from ground up so he or she can be more appealing, I wouldn't consider it as "stood the test of time". Lara Croft is not the same as she used to be, she most definitely did not stood the test of time.
