I would like the market to get flooded with HD remakes, Motion-control remakes, 3D remakes, etc. As well as have them available as both retail games and as Digital Downloads....

Or even better, do what some Video companies are doing, and sell a Physical-&-Digital combo pack at (what I assume is) a reasonable price. Have all of these available for the people that want them so that we can all be happy with the exact version(s) we want. I, personally, would want a D.D.-version of all my H.D.-M.C.-3D games.

Especially Skyrim.



The Elder Scrolls > The Legend of Zelda > Halo > Metroid > everything else

Understand that this is MY opinion and (very much) does not reflect the majority of gamers.

Series' I have yet to really sink my teeth into (alphabetically):

Call of Duty, Final Fantasy, (modern) Mario's, MegaMan, Metal Gear Solid...

Logic, reasoning, and spell-check are your friends. Thank you.

Collections and HD remakes are a waste of money and resources. Simply put with the money spent porting and upgrading the games a whole new game could be started. Unless you are talking direct ports buts those would still cost money. I have to say collections are alright maybe a Mass Effect collection.

But all in all I'd say this is a new generation, we want new games. Collections and remakes will also hurt sales for new IP and new titles which deserve the sales and many people would miss out on amazing new games. Developers and publishers could even cancel amazing franchises due to low sales.salesmen

It was mostly intended from a single-plat perspective, or people who didn't purchase them on the HD twins. For example, a Wii owner this gen may want a Bioshock, ME or Assassin's creed collection. Someone who had the HD twins but not the Wii would want an HD remaster of the Red Steel duo, or an HD remaster of the Prime trilogy. Things like that ;)

depends on title

saints row yes i would

test drive unlimited 2 -definatelly
but theres alot of titles that id rather see sequals to such as
grid
nascar
wwe
dead rising
condemned
007
etc .

in fact hardly anything on hd consoles really were that good to deserve a remake.
seriously most of them only lasted me 2 -5 hours single player and their multiplayer would be dead any way so i just do not see a need for any hd console game besides racing games and saints row (a deeper single player mode) then anything else
the rest can just do better with sequals

Seems like you mostly play mediocre games so I'm not surprised by your opinion.



Would rather see new games be made, rather than a flood of remakes. If you can afford a Wii U, you can afford a PS3, 360, or the other games you skipped over in the past.

Yes, see there you have it.



The only HD collections I'd consider on WiiU would be HD remakes of old Nintendo games. Although aside from Metroid Prime Trilogy or a Zelda Trilogy (Ocarina/TP/SS) I don't think most would really benefit significantly from being rereleased in HD.



 

I thought you meant Nintendo Re-Makes..... Oh well; A Pikmin Collection HD would be very cool. I do kind of want to see Arkham City come to the Wii U since I haven't played it yet.



I'm not begin on HD collections or rehashes but there are some that I think could and really should happen.

1st Party

Metroid Collection - Would essentially be Metroid Prime Trilogy in HD, wiimote controls intact. They  could throw Other M in there too and, if you want to get crazy, put Hunters in there with Prime-level graphics and expanded multiplayer (new arenas, more players, etc.)

Zelda Collection - Wind Waker, Twilight Princess (Wii and GCN versions), and Skyward Sword. I don't see OoT or MM getting in on this...what would blow my mind is if Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks ended up in there with Wind Waker level graphics, but staying intact because of the Upad controls.

Digital Collection - All of Nintendo's Wiiware and DSiware games put on a disk or card for Wii U/3DS, for the people that don't want to download them. These types of collections happen a lot on PC, hasn't seemed to translate to consoles yet. I figured Microsoft would have done a "Best of XBLA" disc by now...

3D Mario Collection - Sunshine, Galaxy and Galaxy 2. I'm not sure if Mario 64 won't look like complete ass when HD'd up, but it shouldn't be a big ordeal to give the game a makeover, but still allow the option of playing it with the original N64 graphics. They can maybe throw Luigi's Mansion in there too.

3rd Party

These games don't necessarily have to be Wii U exclusive, I just want to see them happen.

Tales Collection - My God, Namco needs to make this happen. The only real problem is that there are so many Tales games, they would have to break it down into volumes. And even if they decided to bring the collection over, half of the games were never localized so we'd be getting a truncated version anyway. Still that's about 8 games for us.

Shining Collection - Another overdue collection, Sega can break it down into the Shining Force Collection and the Shining Collection for all the fans that realize there's a series before and after Force. SF Collection would have 1-3 + CD, Shining collection could have Darkness, Holy Ark, Wisdom, etc. I'd like to see stuff like Shining Blade but I doubt it.

Modern Sonic Collection - Sega has done classic Sonic collections twice over, and even a misc collection with the Gems collection, so it's time to do the modern 3D games. I'm sure no one is looking forward to seeing Shadow or 06 repackaged, but it's still easy money for Sega and a sort of apology to Nintendo fans for Sega's stubbornness against letting the hedgehog thrive on Nintendo platforms outside of Mario team ups. For the record, this would be every 3D game from  Adventure (DX plz) to Colors.

Call of Duty Collection - Every CoD in one package (or at least starting with Modern Warfare), they can make the online a "best of," incorporating the best of every CoD with maps and perks from every game available, like some sort of omni CoD online experience. Don't know how feasible that is, though...

Castlevania Collection - Do I need to elaborate? There's been rumors of this for years, and it needs to be more than 3 or 4 games.
