HD remakes do not count? How is the line drawn?

Every platform apart from the Playstation Vita: Remake

Playstation Vita: Port

You do realize that a Vita game tops the list?

As for where I draw the line. If the main difference between a game and its remake is resolution (as is the case with many HD collections) or controls (like with the Wii versions of RE4 and Okami, plus Metroid Prime trilogy), I consider it a technically superior port. The games I included either added a LOT of content (Persona 4), were complete graphical overhauls (the three Zelda games) or both (Metroid: Zero Mission).

That said, I know a list like this is inherently flawed, if only because the line between original and remake is so weird at points. For example, Kingdom Hearts 1.5 includes content from the Japanese-only Final Mix version. Does it have enough "new" content to count? Is it even new?

Don't worry, I was just joking. I definitely wasn't referring to how you judge whether a game is a remake or not.
