I don't know about the rest of you, but I would be happy to see almost any of these games given a moderate treatment and brought back in 2D form on a handheld, a la Contra 4.
Companies don't need to break the bank to update all these franchises like Capcom is doing to Bionic Commando. There is still a market for great 2D games on handhelds, XBL, or PSN.
