I think the port I currently want to see most is Chrono Trigger on the Wii U. Currently, the DS port is the definitive version of the game. The streamlined controls that were added just make it so much nicer to play, and the updated script is really for the better. And the additional content, while very hit or miss, is better to have than to not. All that stuff is great, but I would really love to play Chrono Trigger on a home console with those additions, and a Wii U port is clearly the best candidate for this idea. Think about it. The touch screen controls could be perfectly emulated and translated with the Wii U tablet. And the sound quality wouldn't have to suffer at all like it seemed to do on the DS port. Handhelds are good and they have their advantages. But in the end, I will always prefer home console gaming. However, the SNES and PS1 versions of Chrono Trigger lack the advantages of DS port. A Wii U port that can fully utilize the DS port's additions could truly bring the best of both worlds.

That's all I'll say for now. I have other ideas but I will talk about them later, when I'm not restricted to typing on an iPhone. What ports do you guys want? What remakes do you think should happen?

Spark Of Spirit

I just want the Wii-U Virtual Console to get all the old games back up plus new systems like the Saturn and Dreamcast.

But really, I want to see Rocket Knight Adventures re-released somehow.

I want every game ever on PC, with well-done ports.

Rynnec

I want to see Bomberman 64 The Second Attack one the Wii U Virtual Console, Panzer Dragoon Orta on current consoles and PC's, a Melty Blood collection on the PS3, and Garou Mark of the Wolves on PSN. And I second the Wii U getting Dreamcast and Saturn games for its VC. Custom Robo and Kirby Air Ride should also get digital re-releases with online play added.

For remakes, I believe I've said my thoughts on Devil May Cry 1 and 2 getting remakes. A re-release of Illusiion of Gaia should also be a thing.

I'd wish for the PS3 version of Tales Of Vesperia and updated remakes of Tales Of The Tempest, Tales Of Innocence and Tales Of Hearts.

And move all the shit that was on the Wii's Virtual Console to the Wii U's.

Ports:
Sweet Home - Its graphics have aged very well imo so all it needs is an official translation.

TMNT arcade - It needs to be back on XBLA.

Jet Force Gemini - I want this on XBLA so I can finally beat it.

TimeSplitters 2, Capcom vs SNK 2, The Warriors, Metal Slug Collection, Oddworld Stranger - Because they arent bc.

Mega Man X Collection - Because it never was on Xbox.

Golden Axe arcade

Saturn Bomberman

Jurassic Park Lost World
Remake:

Battletoads arcade - It needs a few more levels and online co-op.

TMNT IV - Put all the best SNES and arcade features in one game with online co-op.

I want Konami to release a Suikoden HD Collection featuring III, IV, and V.

They should also include Suikoden 2 that collection, since it's almost impossible to get these days. Or at least post it on PSN.

Commode

I have a Vita, and while Jet Set Radio on it was cool, I want JSRF as well.

Oh, and the Scott Pilgrim game as well, that'd be great.
It doesn't matter what you say, soon you'll be dead anyway.

Goldstar

I'd like for some company to remake/revive Konami's SunsetRiders. I've always thought that was a cool game.

Shenmue HD collection is all I really want/need at the moment.

They should re-release Conker's Bad Fur Day. The original version, not the edited 360 version. And put it on Steam or something. I know it's owned by Microsoft now, but don't they also do PC games?

Markness

I would love to see King of the Monsters II, Super Battletoads, the AvP beat 'em up, and the Final Fight series on PSN. Super Battletoads and AvP never got console ports for some reason. Anyone here know why?

My two top port choices are the same as usual.

Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection on Steam. With 5 also being released on Steam, that'll mean every main MG game can be playable on PC.

Chrono Trigger on Wii U. With the touch controls (using the tablet in place of the touch screen), revised script, and new content of the DS version, the sound and FMV of the PS1 version, and the loading screens of the SNES version. Basically, an all-time definitive way to play this game. I can't see Nintendo releasing this on a disk, though. And I can't imagine  them releasing it on Wii U eShop. If they were going to release it digitally, it would probably just be a Virtual Console direct port of the SNES version.

I'd be good with those three for now... until I come up with another choice.

Totally agreed. Even though Microsoft owns the character, does Nintendo still have some rights over the original game? The N64 logo is shown at the very beginning.
