- The entire Keio Flying Squadron series.
Seriously, they're great games. But you never hear about them. They're not part of any classic game packs, there's no

sign of them being brought over to the PlayStation Network. Nothing.
- Grim Fandango
This is has just kind of, disappeared. Somebody needs to put it on Steam, or something.
- The Entire Mother series.
Seriously, translate Mother 3 already, and put it for the Virtual Console. Put handheld games in general on the Virtual

Console. Stop it, Reggie. It wouldn't take that much effort, this is long overdue. And both Earthbound on there finally

as well. It's already translated. And it would sell incredibly well, just like the other greats from the RPG section.

And of course do the same to Mother 1.
- All handheld classics
There is no good reason for these to not be on the Virtual Console and ect.
- Seiken Denestu 3
This is one of the most downloaded roms ever. I wonder why. Perhaps because this is the greatest game in the Secret of

Mana series. But nobody has officially translated and localized it. Don't let this stay underground. Officially

translate it, and re-release it. It's worth it.
- Magical Pop'n
A great platformer than was never localized and never noticed.

Mother 1 has already been translated. It was just abandoned before it came to the US. I believe SNES was coming in at that point. There is a prototype floating around the net that as far as I know is near fully translated.

Also Mother 3 has been fan translated.
The reason the Mother series hasn't been put on VC or the like is due to big copyright issues with the music. A lot of the music sounds suspiciously like a lot of popular songs, to the point that it could be considered for a lawsuit:

System Shock series
Thief series

In fact, all of the above could use a HD full remake. Upgraded visuals. Improved AI. Smooth out the more annoying gameplay aspects.

Parasite Eve in Europe. Bout time we got our hands on it.
Chrone Cross
Skullmonkeys
Probably a whole lot more that I just can't remember right now.

I'm patiently waiting for Grim Fandango and System Shock (never got a chance to play them) to appear on GOG.com. Hopefully.

System Shock 2, which I have played and loved, also needs to find its way there.

I also wouldn't mind seeing some of the other old Lucasarts adventure games like the original Monkey Island games... I never really played any of those.


Oh and the fact that Silent Hill 1 was ripped off the PSN store in my country (and I think Europe too) pisses me off.

Earthbound, Donkey Kong 64, Shadowrun (both SNES and Genesis games)...

I'll let that be it from me.

The X-Wing/Tie Fighter series of games. Lucasarts made the entire Dark Forces/Jedi Knight saga available on Steam, so why not give their beloved space combat games the same treatment?

The Neverhood Chronicles. Have Doug TenNapel work out a deal with GoG, since they seem to have quite the collection of other point-and-click adventure games.

I agree with the Mother series, Seiken Denetsu 3, Chrono Cross, the System Shock series, and Donkey Kong 64. I'd also like to see, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords, I already have a physical copy for PC but I don't get why this isn't on Steam. Also, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle games past the first NES one, don't know why only that terrible one is available. Yoshi's Island would be nice, but it is coming to the 3DS (Albeit the GBA port and only as part of the Ambassador Program).

I don't think Dragon Quest VII is on PSN yet either. A lot of last gen's console games could use digital releases as well. And, hopefully a ton of Game Boy classics now that Nintendo has a Virtual Console for them.
