    You are in charge of Nintendo (or Microsoft or Sony). You decide to remaster three old games that have never been remastered before, updating them where necessary. Their original publisher doesn't matter, nor do licensing issues (assume you have an infinite budget). Name them.

    Mine are: • WWF No Mercy 20th Anniversary (with the option to play as the original 2000 roster or the modern 2020 one) • Snatcher (entirely redrawn with full anime cutscenes) • Ridge Racer Type 4 (with a remastered soundtrack and courses from other Ridge Racers included)

    Hell to the Yeah 👌 I still prefer No Mercy to any Wrestling game to this day. Snatcher is probably my most prized game in my collection (Sega CD). Ridge Racer Type 4, heavenly. Damn I really miss Ridge Racer with its super satisfying drifting mechanics. Reverse 360 anyone? 😄

    Yes No Mercy. I’d go with Perfect Dark, but a proper remake with modern FPS controls etc. F-Zero GX - practically perfect already but expand the tracks, update the visuals, add online. (Would just take a new F-Zero tbh) Viewtiful Joe - would look stunning in HD.

    Viva Pinata 2 (no, the Rare collection doesn't count as a remaster) Silent Hill 2 (in a remaster that works, thanks) LIGHTNING RETURNS, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

    I almost said “all three FFXIII games”, bc that’s the only way the budget would be approved, to resell them as a bundled set a la FFX

    this is a great tweet with a ton of brilliant replies, one “real” one for me and one horrible one that’s a list of 10 trilogies or groups of 3 games. I almost did “FF I-VI, but not like the 3D-ified remastering of III & IV: a unified “animated Akihito Yoshida illustration” style”

    - Golden Sun Duology (Yes, in one game. HD-ify it) - Paper Mario (Same aesthetic to Color Splash) - Jet Set Radio Future (Because I liked it, I guess?)

    Skate 2, it's still perfect, I just want it on PS4 and made prettier. FIFA 08 featuring Nakamura-era Celtic and Ronaldinho-era Ronaldinho-era but with a full Ultimate Team DJ Hero Ultimate collection. Soundtrack of 1&2 and the gold & black deck from the first game's special ed

    Loving the sheer diversity of replies to this already. It's also given me loads of ideas for retro games to cover on the site.
