F-Zero GX was (is) so so SO good. Would love to see that a proper remaster. Already looked stunning back then, and played so smooth. Gamecube controllers were good as well. I think mine all still work flawlessly.

Never played Skies of Arcadia, but would love to some day.

Power Stone 1/2 deserves a comeback.

I would lose it if they did something, ANYTHING, with F-Zero…

Deffo Luigi’s Mansion

I doubt it but it would be awesome to have new modes when going through it again similar to the Mirror Mode

They should release a collection of 1 and 2 together as remastered (although I would prefer a remake).

Luigis Mansion 3 was amazing

Mario Kart: Double Dash - SSX Tricky - Star Fox Adventures - Tony Hawk's American Wasteland - Sonic Adventure 2 - Pokémon Colosseum

You pick Star Fox Adventures but not Rogue Squadron 2 or 3??

I'll take some Star Fox though. Would rather then remaster Zero instead. Just stop the motion controls.

I haven't owned a Nintendo console since the GameCube, but if they were to do a quality remaster of Eternal Darkness, I'd get a Switch in a heartbeat...even if only for that game.

cthulhucultist108d ago

Excellent choice - that would be my pick as well

I’d like to see a full remake rather than a remaster of this one. It would benefit so much from a more modern control and camera setup. It felt a little cringey to me when I tried playing through a couple years ago.

By far my favorite game during that era though and my #1 pick as well to see brought up to date!

NO!!

No more remasters! I want NEW iterations of Nintendo IP, not rehashes! Give me a NEW Mario Kart, give me a NEW F-Zero, give me a NEW Metroid Prime, give me a new Waverace, etc!!!

Neonridr108d ago

but we are getting a new Metroid Prime. What's the harm in having some classics remastered to help fill in some gaps?

RaiderNation108d ago (Edited 108d ago )

Because Nintendo struggles at being prolific with putting out 1st party games as it is! I dont want their seemingly limited resources being tied up with remastering old titles. I want new stuff. I cant believe we are 6 years in with the Switch and still, no new Donkey Kong, no new Punch Out, no new F-Zero, no new Waverace, no new Mario Kart, no new Star Fox, no new Kid Icarus, no new Metroid Prime, no new Earthbound, and only one new Mario game! ONE new Mario in 6 years (well two I guess if you count Mario Maker 2 bur I consider that a rehash). And they have a freaking movie coming out this year, with no game tie in! What has happened to Nintendo?? I remember between 2006 and 2015, we got nine new Mario games! In six years with Switch, one! But by God they'll flood us with a hundred Pokémon games, farm sims, and cell shaded anime junk!

@RaiderNation this is where 3rd party studios can come in though. Plenty of skilled studios that could handle something like a remaster since the game itself isn't being changed.

Good Mario games take time to make. How many 3D Mario titles did we get on the Wii? Galaxy and Galaxy 2? Wii U we got Mario 3D World. The "New Super Mario Bros" games were just filler in my opinion.

Nintendo doesn't make Pokemon titles, Game Freak does. And what does cel-shaded graphics have anything to do with the quality of a game? Are you 15 or something where only 4K photorealistic graphics make it possible to enjoy a title?

RaiderNation108d ago (Edited 108d ago )

@Neonridr

No I am far from 15 lol. Cell shading is fine once in a while. Its a graphical style that can look beautiful if done correctly. But I feel there's been an over reliance on it with Switch, (no doubt to help counter the weak performance of the hardware). Its like anime. After you see so much of it, it all kind of starts looking the same.

"Good Mario games take time to make"

You're right and I didnt realistically expect 9 Mario games in 6 years on Switch. I just pointed that statistic out to show how huge of a drop off it has become. Mario Odyssey was great...six years ago! Wheres the new one? Yes they take time but...six years?? Come on! Hideo Kojima made Death Stranding in 3 years with infinitely more complexity! And to not have a new Mario game ready to coincide with the release of the movie?? That seems like a misstep. What the hell have they been doing the last 6 years?? Have they ALL been working on just Zelda???
