With the recent surge of nostalgic gaming, from the host of ports on GBA to the thriving market of the Wii's Virtual Console, now is as good a time as ever to look back and hope that some of the greatest games of past generations get the go ahead, and make it onto a handheld system. So far, all of the Super Nintendo Final Fantasies have made returns, as well as some other games (Tales of Phantasia, a bunch of Mario Bros. games). But despite all of this, there are still a pile of games that have been overlooked. So here you go, the top ten that need to be rereleased on a handheld system.
The PSP was ambition personified, so much so that it’s kinda wild to look back and realise what exactly Sony cooked up in 2004.
I still play my PSP. Sadly the UMD drive has stopped working, but I modded it to still be able to play my games (and then some). Such a great little portable.
The game looks like fun and here is the announcement trailer.
Just like you don’t ask a woman her age, you don’t ask a Final Fantasy fan how many games there are in total.
I don't quiet get who it's directed at. General player? Sure, I can believe them not knowing some of the less popular final fantasy games. But final fantasy FANS? There is nothing forgotten about these games.
I'd pay money for Zelda 64 and Super Smash Bros on a portable system.
I never understood why Nintendo didn't bring the Star Tropics franchise along to another system. I still have both my carts for the NES, good times they were.

I am so glad I bought Tactics Ogre back when I did, which was about 7 years ago for only $12 used. I even have an original, non-greatest hits copy of Final Fantasy 7 that features a typo on the back of the case that was apparant in only the first runs.
Tactics Ogre and Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 are probably two of the most valuable games I got.
Edit: Oh yeah I also forgot about Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete in perfect condition with the cloth map and the hard bound leather gaming manual.

I would sell my kidney for a PSP version of Silent Bomber
