What retro games would you like to see re-released on XBLA/PSN/WiiWare?

With games like Banjo-Kazooie, Sonic Adventure, TMNT 1989, and the Virtual Console itself we've been seeing plenty of retro games making a return in the form of downloadable games this gen. Several retro games have even gotten remakes like Earthworm Jim HD and Turtles in Time. Gamers are suckers for nostalgia and they know it so, I ask you, what games would you like to see re-released on downloadable services like XBLA, PSN, and WiiWare?

One of the first things to come to my mind? The Simpsons arcade game. The fact that this game HASN'T been rereleased yet is crazy. Just about anyone who's been to an arcade or a Chuck E. Cheese remembers dropping quarter after quarter into what many claim to be the ONLY good Simpsons video game to date. Why haven't we seen it? Legal issues? Well, they need to get that stuff settled, because I would love to play The Simpsons over Xbox Live.

Rampage: World Tour would also make for a nice addition with added online play (as well as local, of course). The game might have gotten a little stale after a while, but it really can be quite a blast, especially with some friends. If it ever happens, sorry guys, I totally call dibs on Lizzie.

Since we have Sonic Adventure on XBLA/PSN, why not Sonic Adventure 2? They could even make the Chao Gardens able to link up with one another like you could in Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle on the GameCube.

The remake of the original Resident Evil would also be great to see. It might be a little unrealistic due to file size, but downloadable games have been getting bigger and bigger over the years. I still have a perfectly fine GameCube copy of the game, but I wouldn't mind seeing it reworked into a widescreen and HD presentation. Being the sucker I am for achievements it would also be nice to see if they could offer up some new challenges for me in that game.

There are others I'd like to see, sure, but now I'm curious what you guys want.

I still don't know why Simpsons' Arcade wasn't put up there like TMNT was for the newest movie. Everyone wants it, it's a classic, and it would be totally awesome.

Sonic CD with a US/JP soundtrack option is another one. I'd like to see this on the services before we get more 3D Sonic games, unfortunately Sega has a grudge against it.

But my #1 game I want up is definitely Guardian Heroes. This game NEEDS to be put up with online co-op and it'll be the best thing on those services. Since Treasure is putting up Bangai-O (I hope the Dreamcast version is in there somewhere) and rereleasing Radiant Silvergun, here's hoping this finally has the chance it needs to be relived.

I don't think you're going to get REmake. It's actually been released on the Wii this generation.

I'd like to see some of the good RPGs that are just too rare to buy. Victor Ireland is pumping out more Working Designs stuff. It might be too much to hope for but I'd like to get a version of Cosmic Fantasy 2 for T-16 CD.

I'd also like to get Dragon Warrior IV. It's way too expensive on cart.

For PSN classics I'd like to see the two Persona games and the two Tales games. Those are for selfish reasons, those are just the ones I need for my complete PSX RPG collection. I'd also like to see the Japan only Persona 2 sidestory translated and released.

And I'd also like to get some of the Saturn RPGs that are impossible to find. Shining Force III, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Dragon Force, Magic Knight Rayearth. Those would be nice to have.

Oh, and friggin Earthbound. All the Mother games. Just redo the music already.
