heres the top 10 from last years survey


1. Sakura Wars (2457)
2. Jet Set Radio (1485)
3. Virtual On (729)
4. Shenmue (727)
5. Virtua Fighter (581)
6. Panzer Dragoon (538)
7. Shining Force (518)
8. Skies of Arcadia (483)
9. Streets of Rage (437)
10. NiGHTS into dreams… (261)

Good starting point

EDIT - Minus Sakura Wars

I see them making a new virtua fighter. Fighting games have been doing well.

Shining force 4 could be a good bet aswell if they went back to the strategy roots. Fire emblem proves they are still very viable.

Would love streets of rage, but unless it's like Sonic mania, i dunno if it can work.

A panzer dragoon saga remake could make a splash nowadays on HD consoles.

Wet dreams are a new Nights (without motion controls, kid sections and better graphics) and skies of arcadia 2, but they aren't super popular.

Clarify the Streets of Rage outlook. SEGA couldn't do a Streets of Rage Mania because its already been done - Streets of Rage Remake project has been out for over 10 years now. The Beatem up genre definitely is prime for a revival.

Sonic mania is like a Sonic game for the saturn. A streets of rage for the saturn with complete remade HD pixel art just like mania is what i had in mind. Something classic looking that will get people excited.

Thinking about it, there could be another formula that could work, but it's a gamble. If you played Sleeping dogs... an open world game with combat in that vein but in the Streets of rage darker universe. I dunno. What i do know is that streets of rage suffers from the same problem final fight or golden axe do... they don't translate well to 3D.

Its already been done. Streets of Rage Remake Project:

- Over 100 remastered/new stages.

- 20 playable characters 

- 83 remixed songs

- All 64 enemy types retooled

- Survival mode

- Boss Rush

- mini games

It did it all. SEGA recently shut it down after 10 years;It was becoming to big. SEGA has been beat to the punch. Hell there is a Streets of Rage as if it was made for NeoGeo.

As for your second point about not translating to 3D... You ever play the Yakuza series? That is 100%  Streets of Rage combat wise. My thing is this - Why does it have to be 3D? Why cant the secondary focus of a new Streets of Rage be to reinvent the beat tm up wheel? We are in a time right now where we are rediscovering (for lots just discovering) the joy of 2D gaming with modern touches.



Please SEGA localize Valkyria Chronicles 3 for the west. Either that or make a proper Valkyria Chronicles 4. Virtua Fighter 6 is a sequel I expected already.

Older IPs I would love to see:
Skies of Arcadia 2
Jet Set Radio 3
Space Channel 5 Part 3
Nights
Chu Chu Rocket 2
A new dungeon crawler like Shining in the Darkness/Shining the Holy Ark

When they decide to release a new console and take on the big boys, then their games will be great again. Until then.... zzzzz.



Shadow the Hedgehog 2.

Sonic R 2

Sonic FreeRiders 3



Resonance of Fate 2, here I come!



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

You can get a translation online, but you'd have to play it on a CFW PSP, or an Emulator. Only just finished Valkyria Chronicles for the first time on PS4, fantastic game but think I'll pass on 2/3.



Would be great if they focused and pushed those IPs and gave Sonic a break for a while.
