[Jogurt the Yogurt]

I posted this back in May, but I like to occasionally repost an updated version to remind people that there are good games out there.

01. Gemfire (would prefer the SNES version)
02. General Chaos
03. Genghis Khan II: Clan of the Grey Wolf (would prefer the SNES version)
04. Lemmings (would prefer the Amiga version!)
05. Lemmings 2 (would prefer the Amiga version!)
06. Liberty or Death (would prefer the SNES version)
07. Mega Man: The Wily Wars
08. Mutant League Football
09. Mutant League Hockey
10. NHLPA Hockey '93
11. NHL Hockey '94 (would prefer the SNES version)
12. Nobunaga's Ambition (would prefer the NES version)
13. Nobunaga's Ambition: Lords of Darkness (would prefer the SNES version)
14. Phantasy Star IV (already out in Japan/EU—bring it here!)
15. Romance of the Three Kingdoms II (would prefer the SNES version)
16. Romance of the Three Kingdoms III: Dragon of Destiny (would prefer the SNES version)
17. Shadowrun
18. Shining Force II - we got it!
19. Uncharted Waters (would prefer the NES version)
20. Uncharted Waters: New Horizons (would prefer the SNES version)
21. Warsong (already out in Japan—bring it here!)

The NHL and Shadowrun games involve licensing, so they're not likely. Many of the KOEI games are not likely on the Genesis since we already have a precedent (Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire) for them to go with their SNES versions.

Digi, you'd probably like Warsong. It's kind of like early Fire Emblem games, but with generic troops as well as generals/main characters.

I saw it on VC-Reviews but I forgot about it, although I don't think I've ever gotten around to beating a non-FE SRPG, ( I have Shining Force, Yggdra Union, Advance Wars Dual Strike, FF Tactics Advance, Disgaea DS, and Super Robot Taisen Original Generation 2)

Well, of those games, only Shining Force is a true old-school SRPG in the same way that FE and Warsong are. You should be trying to play the original FFT over FFTA. The rest of those are all new-skool SPRGs.

I hear FFT is the best SRPG out there, so if I had a PSP I'd definately pick it up, but maybe if I'm likely I'll find the original somewhere.

I lost interest in FFTA pretty much after I'd tried most of the classes and a lot of the abilities.

[Relavant Latrommi]

I'm interested if Pulseman gets released over here as it did in Japan. Sounds like a quality game which never made it over here.

[Mr. Cheez]

Not that big on the Genesis, but I would like to see these games:

Road Rash
Taz-Mania (not likely though due to licensing issues)
Castlevania Bloodlines
Sonic & Knuckles
Revenge of Shinobi
MUSHA
Herzog Zwei
Rocket Knight
Pulseman

[Afrancio]

I like this list because its a great way to remind people that the Sega is not out of Genesis games for the Virtual Console. Plus if Nintendo worked a deal with Interplay they can certainly do one with EA to get us some Road Rash and Starflight. As for NBA Jam I would still get it even if they had to strip the game of team and player names. Because the game is still fun and I don't have to have Micheal Jordan's name in the game.

Thank you!

It's just too bad that most of these aren't even rated yet. I'd take any one of those games over Phantasy Star, Wonder Boy, and Sonic(love 'em, but, honestly, how many times to I have to buy the same game over an over again?) any day.

I certainly hope so, especially Road Rash, I absolutely loved that game!

Nah, then they'd also have to edit or remove some of the voice samples, as well as the character portraits, and I doubt they'd be willing to do that. Too bad, it's definitely one of my favorite games, and I really wanted to try the Tournament Edition.

G-d do I hate license issues. Not only does it keep me from playing my personal favorite rendition of my personal favorite sport, but I also can't play the extremely awesome Yu Yu Hakusho fighting game.

But that's what the VC is all about! Besides, I haven't played Phantasy Star or Wonder Boy before the VC, so hey, the classics are doing their job too.

[Sharecrow]

I'd love to see: Flashback, Road Rash 2, Ys III, Humans, Warsong, Shadowrun (not likely, I know), Tazmania (same story), and I'm certain I am forgetting some, but I'll post again if anything that I desperately want comes to mind. Am tired and I need to catch some zzz's

[Sharecrow]

oh and Desert Strike and Jungle Strike for sure. Wasn't there a third one too? Urban Strike or something? Anyway, if so, I never got to it and would love to see it too

[Sharecrow]

maybe El Viento too just to get to play it again....and The Immortal for the same reasons.

[Relavant Latrommi]

Would love Hellfire or Toki on there as well as Ballz 3D (a very funny fighting game) but doubt we'll see them.

Would love to see Desert/Jungle Strike on there too but that is up to EA.

P.S: My ex loved Road Rash too. Must be a good racing game then!!

[timp29]

I'm spoiled. The 3D0 had remakes/improved versions of flashback and road rash. I don't think I could go back to the megadrive versions :/

I am confused by this statement...

Yeah, I guess. It's just that we've been getting so many Sonic and Wonderboy games, I'd just prefer to have something different, you know, like one of those more obscure games that I missed out on over the years. As for Phantasy Star, well, personally I never liked that series before it became an MMO(one of the rare times when I thought a series was actually improved be becoming an MMO ), and I guess I was still a little sore that PS4 was all we got for our Christmas update.

[Shadx]

I'd love to see Toki one the vc as well.

My most wanted games are:
1.Haunting: Starring Polterguy
2.Ghostusters
3.Castlevania: Bloodlines
4.Toki
5.Zoop

Funny game, needs a remake/update. End boss and dungeons were dreadful though.

I'd like to see some Psygnosis games too like Shadow of the Beast and Puggsy. Maybe Leander too (Galahad?).

Psygnosis? The guys who made the original Wipeout games? The chances of that happening seems pretty slim, since they got rebranded as Studio Liverpool, and are now owned by Sony Entertainment.

You read Wikipedia too!

This is a wishlist remember...I know the chances are minimal but still...

OH yeah, I forgot. Sorry, man, thought I was on another thread.

[Sharecrow]

'Shadow of the Beast' was tough....

[Yossarian]

I know. That's part of the reason I'd like to play it again. Even though it was punishing the storyline was intriguing enough that it made me want to find out what was after the bits I couldn't do. Plus I love the art style of those Psygnosis games.

Wiz 'n' Liz!

A hell yeah for all in bold. Never took to Robocod though, much preferred James Pond 3.

Everyone I know always says the first Road Rash is better, I say Hell no! It's been years since I've played it, but I bet it's still as good.

I had Robocod for the Amiga, so it's a trip down memory lane for me. The music is so good on it too, I still find myself whistling the tunes even to this day (mainly whilst doing the dishes) haha!

[LinkFanatic]

I can't believe I can't think of a single game for the Genesis. Back in the day, I preferred that system over the SNES...I guess I would say their version of Mortal Kombat

[Outrunner]

Firstly I'd like it if I could actually play half of my existing downloaded MD games on my HD TV...

Games I'd like to see are:
Rocket Knight adventures (I hope for this every week)
Castlevania Bloodlines
Turtles; the Hyperstone Heist
Sonic CD
Sonic and Knuckles
any of the Thunderforce series

[Betagam7]

Nothing as none of them are optimised for PAL. Even the Hanabi titles. I'd rather have more TG16

[Angelic Lapras King]

Wish they d release Bubsy 1 and 2.

[leisuresuit]

Streets of Rage 2
Syndicate
Landstalker

[Mickeymac]

Aren't two of those already on the VC?

[leisuresuit]

Oh yeah, Syndicate isn't.

And how about Populous or Worms?
