Agreed. NiGHTS too. God damn, Sega had so many good ideas they just let fall into obscurity.

I've noticed most 90s platformers never made it past 3 titles, tops. It's sad.

>>1241086

Didn't that already have a remake? Sega has a lot of series in limbo really.

Yeah NiGHTS got a remake (and a mediocre sequel with uncanny valley kids), but it deserves more. It was a fun game with god tier art direction, it feels like such a waste.

Back during PSO's gamecube days it was possible to download a gameboy advance NiGHTs to your Gameboy. I doubt there's any way to even play it now since you had to get it from Sega's servers. It was a part of a crossover quest that had NiGHTs too.

Road Rash series. I miss that humor, that music, gameplay and speed. Saw a few months ago a kickstarter project based on RR where you can use guns and play online, absolutely disgusting.

Am I crazy for thinking that game plays itself a little too much, kind of like Sonic Colors? I've only seen footage of NiGHTS, and that's how it looked to me.

This. The sequel was just shit.

>> No.1241516

saw that too, thought it was shitting all over it. Like a bad fanfic brought to life. All they need to do is port the Road Rash for 3DO, add in a few more bells and whistles and make it online playable. Imagine racing with 16 other friends probably bunch of strangers. while cranking out Soundgarden or Monster Magnet? Cash cow right there

what the fuck were they thinking? I love Actraiser to death, but I couldn't believe the second one ended up being a mediocre platformer. I was rather disappointed.

it really is a shame what they did to the series with the xbox one, blowing away combos of raptors to the jungle beat was some good fun. would be nice to see it again without the RE controls

I have always wondered WHY people don't remember the Startropics games when they were great and were made by Nintendo themselves?

Or WHY Nintendo refuses to make a sequel to them while they keep rehashing Zelda up to a point where even the fans of the games are sick of them?

Startropics 3 would be a breath of fresh air to whole action-RPG genre which badly needs it.

I concur, it would have been alright if they left the gameplay alone. That and they totally got rid of what made Act Raiser, Act Raiser.

There will never be a new StarTropics because neither game came out in Japan, and the second was NA-exclusive until 2009 when it was released on virtual console in Europe.
