Well, Jet Grind Radio is amazing, and that's already coming...

And Shenmue was pretty popular...

But SKIES OF ARCADIA!

Oh wow, I freaking loved that game, any chance to replay it is an insta wallet opening movement for me.

Totally want to play all of those games. Hopefully this'll be released as a package like the first one. Even though the only one I actually installed out of it was Sonic. This one though, all three of the ones you mentioned are games I've heard of and totally want to play.

I knew they would bring it back, that game was so under appreciated and since its so rare finding a copy of it on DC or GC, this is a good thing to do to let people finally play this game. It is my favorite RPG of all time and even though it won't have the little extras the GC version had it'll still be a wonderful buy for people to get.

Personally, I'm hoping they announce Sonic Adventure 2 as a port. Then along with Sonic Adventure 1, JET SET RADIOOOOOOOOOO! and Crazy Taxi, I shall have what made up the majority of my Dreamcast playing days. It also gives me a chance to play Shenmue, which is a series I never got round to playing.

This is so awesome I've been looking to get a working copy of Skies of Arcadia forever. :D

EDIT: ...and it's not confirmed 100% yet, dangit.

It won't have the extra bits, but it would have the original sound quality (they knocked that down to fit on a Gamecube disc), and as someone who's played both versions, it's worth the sound upgrade.

Where are you looking? A quick search on eBay and Amazon yields numerous results. They're not all cheap, but definitely affordable.

I've been sorta interested in looking into Skies after it beat Baldur's Gate in the Gamefaqs game of the decade poll.

If Baldur's Gate had been beaten by a recent more well know title I would chalk it up to the recency bias of such polls, but they were both older games so I'm willing to see the results as being a little more legitimate than I otherwise would.

There area quite a few Sega games, from Dreamcast to as far back as the Saturn, that I would love to see ports of. You'd think they would get on the ball with this more. There's money just waiting to be made.

Back to the saturn would be plausible, not to mention pretty cool. I'd love to see, say, Assault Suits Leynos 2 finally get translated and released in the US. I still wonder who actually buys the genesis collections, though. Whoever it is must be Good Guy Greg incarnate.

If sega wants to port more dreamcast games then I would like to see sonic adventure 2 and phantasy star online. I know both game out for the gamecube, but so what? Crazy taxi and sonic adventure dx came out on gamecube and they came out on psn/steam/etc. so they can do it if they want.

If they're going to rerelease Skies of Arcadia, better for it to be the GameCube remake, because that version fixed the crippling random encounter rate. And sadly, it's stupidly hard to find now.

Also this, even though I have it, just for the chance for online multiplayer with friends.

True enough, but I don't quite consider it worth it to pay like $100 (which was the cheapest I've seen) when none of it is going to anyone involved with making the game and when I have a partially working copy that used to work, ergo it's not that I've never played the game (though it is impossible to get past the cutscene right before the party split now, hence why I want another copy :/).

I would prefer the GameCube port though

and a Sega Saturn port of Magic Knight Rayearth that game was pure Zelda sex
