We talk a lot on /vr/ about retro remakes. I'm trying to compile a list of all the remakes that are out. Older remakes, newer ones, just a good, consolidated list. If you anons wouldn't mind, add to this list. Give the remake title, system it's for, and what the original game (or series) is it's a remake of (yeah, some names will be the same). Doesn't matter how new the remake is (or what system it's on), provided it's a remake of a retro title (or series).

Here's some to start the list off:

>Megaman Maverick Hunter X
PSP - Megaman X

>Rocket Knight
Xbox 360 (XBL) - The Rocket Knight series

>Castlevania Chronicles
PS1 - Castlevania (NES)

>Bionic Commando Re-Armed
Xbox 360 (XBL) - Bionic Commando

>REsident Evil
Game Cube - Resident Evil

Yes, but Kirby's Return to Dreamland also pays homage and has callbacks as well, but it's obviously another game in the series and not a remake. A remake is when a company takes a retro title and upgrades the graphics/sound/control. Metroid Prime pas great homage and all, but it's another game in the series and not a remake. Final Fantasy III for the NDS is a complete remake/overhaul of the original FFIII title.

No. Maybe the HD sequels. Again, taking RKA.

Fuck I dunno. It's not the same kinda sequel like DKC1-DKC2-DKC3. Those are sequels in the same vein. Then we get DKCR which is polished remastered etc etc.

>> No.767221

>>767210
Well, RK is a sequel that happens to be in HD because, well, it was made today, and they don't do pixel art anymore. Time gap isn't really a proper argument for these things. And DKCR isn't really a plot sequel (I think) but it is a continuation of the series. The problem is if we go down this road there's a shitload of games we can't really ignore because the criteria for accepting them isn't really clear.

>> No.767228

Isn't Sonic CD technically a remake?

With the remade physics, better graphics and the addition of Tails as a playable character counts right?

>> No.768060

Nah, it's another in the series.

Generations is though, yeah? Since almost every level is a remastering of some level from some Sonic game?

>> No.768071

>>768060
Not exactly since its a different game all together. Just because it has some nostalgia from Sonic 1, 2, 3&K, CD and Adventure 1-2 I wouldn't count it either.

The CD RE-release is a remake only because it added so much shit like the ability to change the soundtracks, faster frame rate and just made it better than it was before.

Unfortuanetly yeah. Sega, Namco, Enix, and Capcom went full jew-mode with their iOS ports/remakes.
The only game that deserves an iOS port/remake in my opinion is Tilt n Tumble. Atthe very least it'd make for an interesteing fan project, it'd work great on a iDevice.

It was mentioned before but the DS remakes of Final Fantasy Legend II and III, aka SaGa 2 and 3.

The remake of SaGa 2 is alright, giving an already decent game a simple makeover, but FFL3's DS remake is bretty gud.

The original FFL3/SaGa3 played more like a generic proto-Chrono Trigger JRPG but the DS remake adds in some of the more palatable elements of the SaGa series.
The end result is a hybrid RPG that balances the freedom and customization of a SaGa title (all new sidequests with multiple outcomes, character growth etc.) with the focused scenario of a more traditional JRPG.

The only thing I can find slightly objectionable is the artstyle and slightly smaller selection of beastmen/monsters/robots to transform into.

Those Mario 2 and Mario 3 advanced games were pretty good. More of enchanced ports (game plays exactly the same, just with graphical overhaul and saving). Mario World and Yoshi's Island advance were just straight up ports with added voices

Mario World for GBA had some minor differences, like Luigi has a new sprite that isn't just a recoloring of Mario, and his physics work a little differently from Mario's too. I think there was some extra stuff too, but I can't speak for Yoshi's Island GBA. Haven't played it yet.

I really hate to push iOS on here especially with the porting quality, but FFV does have the best version on it currently. I don't enjoy the graphics, but it is pretty much FFV advance without the faggotry from the GBA.
