Remakes are just going to become a bigger staple of many publishers forward catalog most likely ... it simply takes too long to make new games today from scratch. You're talking like 6-10 years in many cases.

Yes in the past Nintendo didn't lean on this as much because they could just make a new franchise installment of anything they wanted in 2-4 years usually, but that isn't the case any more.

And these older games ... they're still fun to play at their core, it's just new generations of players aren't likely to go back to the N64 or even PS2 era or whatever these days. Having a modern remake makes those games much more accessible.
