This Generation's Lost Franchises...

Little King's Story.

+1 (the horrible sequal doesnt count)

OUENDAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!

The region locking on the 3DS means most of us would never get to play a new ouendan game anyway, even if it happened.

[Dogg Thang]

It's probably the only game that would have me seriously considering getting a JP 3DS.

Plus, Starfox I guess. Adventures, Assault and Command weren't proper Starfox games, and the 3DS one is just a port that showed sadly how much the game has aged.

So yeah, we're long overdue a new F-Zero and Starfox.

Agreed about Adventures, Assault and Command not being worthy of the Starfox name, but I'm sorry - Starfox 64 is a timeless classic that still stands up today, and I say that as somebody who doesn't necessarily rate the 3DS port that much (too much attempting to adapt the game for the 3DS platform on Nintendo's part).

I too would dearly love a new F-Zero, but I honestly think that ship has sailed - not a franchise that makes NCL money.

for me...

Tobal, come on SE give me my HD remix of 2 if you can't be bothered with no.3
Bushido Blade
Fire Pro Wrestling / King of Colosseum - japanese wrestling games died with the Ps2, western are the worst.
Shenmue
Street Fighter Ex ... yes i enjoyed its kick ass super arts combo system and wacky characters
Power Stone
Shining Force

What's wrong with Starfox 64 3D?

[Wools]

Nothing at all in my eyes, it was not pushing any boundaries but it was a respectful port that looked lovely in 3D.

What's wrong with Starfox 64 3D?

Didn't look, sound or feel quite right imo. Give me the N64 original anytime.

Sorry double post.

Would loved to have seen follow ups to both Haunting Ground and Shadows of Rome in this generation. I can only imagine the level of violence that could have been attained in a Rome sequel.

Really enjoyed Haunting Ground but I always felt it could have been more thought provokingly adult. The original concept was for a much younger heroine but later changed because it was considered a bit too risky ie. a mentally challenged, psychopathic brute chasing a young girl around an empty mansion, causing her to have panic attacks and with who knows what else on his mind. But apparently this sort of thing is perfectly OK as long as the victim is depicted as 18+.
