Games you want that will never happen

Why would you get roasted for that? Rising is great. I think the combat mechanics were fine as they were, even. It's also our best chance to get a good console Metal Gear game at all, most likely, even if it isn't tactical espionage action. Konami would otherwise be handing it off to...some other group that wouldn't do as well a job.

Here's an idea!

A LEGO Castlevania game... That's never going to happen, is it?

I dunno, I always thought Lego Legend of Zelda would be pretty cool. I don't think it'll happen due to licensing issues with Nintendo and Lego, though.

Here's what I want from it:
-No Amiibo or Lego Dimensions compatibility garbage.
-Hyrule Field hub world with recurring locations from multiple games such as Death Mountain, Lake Hylia, Kakariko Village, and Hyrule Castle.
-Two levels based on each Zelda game, kinda like what Sonic Generations did. One based on a dungeon, the other based on an area unique to that game.
-A reasonable amount of playable characters taken from other Zelda games (e.g. Linebeck, Ralph, Marin, Skull Kid wearing Majora's Mask, Groose, but no Girahim because I hate him). I feel some Lego games have too many and would like to see around 30-40 of them.
-Throw the multiple timelines and series continuity out the window when it comes to story and gameplay. There doesn't need to be any reason for characters, locations, and items from various Zelda games to show up other than "people like them", "they're staples of the series", or "because it'd be cool".
-The game would be a comedic version of the "get three things, then get the master sword, go through more dungeons, then fight Ganon" formula.
-All the Lego characters in cutscenes are mute like every Lego game before Lego Batman 2, with the exception of...
-A bonus level that's a homage to the 80's Zelda cartoon and the CD-i games where "Excuuuuse me, princess!" Link and CD-i Link team up to save 80's cartoon and CD-i Zelda from 80's cartoon and CD-i Ganon. They all use the same audio clips as their source material.

Hahaha, I've seen that phrase, "Your move Capcom", quite a few times now. They tend to decide not to make moves.

We didn't get Ace Attorney Investigations 2, and that game is pretty aged now. It would seem that this game, that, and any and all further side/gaiden Ace Attorney games will more or less stay Japan-only unless the series sees a larger jump in sales. That could happen with AA6, but who knows.

Steele, I know several Metal Gear fans personally, and they all are at worst okay with Rising haha. If someone is any sort of reasonable individual, they would have to know that the game was done very well. I'm a pretty big MG fan myself, I've played all of them except Acid (and I love Snatcher and ZoE was fun too). Sure, the plot is a bit silly and it can be hard to believe this could be considered anything close to the same world, but the main series' story is a bit wacky itself. A bit.

Speaking of...have I mentioned a current gen Snatcher yet? I...guess somehow or another Konami may still own rights to that, but it shouldn't be that hard to wrest from them. That is 100% Hideo Kojima lol.

A while ago I've seen some footage of fan-game in development starring YTP characters (CD-i Link, as I remember). I would love to play that game and I'm actually not joking.

Let me see... This may take a bit.

Okami 2: Okamiden is undoubtedly a thing that exists, but I don't think it's a good enough sequel to do the original game justice. There's still a lot of unknowns regarding the world of Okami and probably enough deities and spirits in Shinto myth to justify making a full-on sequel on the same level as the original. Too bad Capcom laid off the team behind Okami 1 and is likely unwilling to work with them again (or vice versa). The sales figures of both games likely keep Capcom from wanting to do another Okami game in the first place, as well.

Castlevania X Shin Megami Tensei: Both SMT and 'vania are cult classic series with dark themes and environments, RPG mechanics and tons of mythological monsters, so I think it'd make a whole lot of sense for the two series to crossover in some way. Dracula could even be a Chaos representative due to his willful defiance of God via becoming a vampire. However, I'm not sure how the gameplay differences between the two series could be reconciled, and with Konami having gone off the deep end, I doubt any future Castlevania games will be more than cheapo mobile cash-grabs made by people focused solely on profit.

More Shin Megami Tensei games on PC: JRPG series have been exploding onto PCs recently, with franchises like Final Fantasy, Tales, Disgaea, Neptunia, Dragon Quest, Grandia and The Legend of Heroes all getting entries on PC within the past couple of years. Atlus has tried making a Shin Megami Tensei game for PC before, but they decided to outsource it to CAVE and make it an MMO, and the result was the currently dying Shin Megami Tensei IMAGINE. Only a couple of other MegaTen games have hit PC, and they're all either super obscure, really old ports, or both. As cult classic JRPGs are getting much more exposure through PC rereleases and ports (The Legend of Heroes series and Valkyria Chronicles were both somewhat obscure in the West before they hit PCs), I think it's time for Atlus to step up to the plate and bring its flagship JRPG series to Steam, preferably by porting or remastering some of their old classics like Nocturne and the Digital Devil Saga subseries. Unfortunately, Atlus has little to no experience with making a PC game, and I doubt they'd be willing to outsource such a project. Their unwillingness to bring Persona 5 to PC also leaves me doubting that they want to do anything with the franchise in general on PC.

Streets of Rage 4 (or at least endorsement of SoR Remake): Sega's been leaving a ton of their classic franchises in the dust outside of ports, and Streets of Rage is one of them. The beat em up genre seems to be in need of a roast chicken found in an arcade cabinet, and making Streets of Rage 4 would undoubtedly get a ton of old-school Sega fans on board. Failing that, they should at least acknowledge that the fan-made series-merging Remake is a thing other than some random fangame they C&D'd for no real reason. Maybe by funding another SoR game by Bomber Games a la Street Fighter X Mega Man.

Mega Man Universe (or a new Mega Man in general): Super Mario Maker's demonstrated that established franchise + powerful level creation tools = big success. Capcom was going to do something similar with Mega Man Universe, but they canceled it out of nowhere due to the whole Inafune thing, and seemingly out of spite, the only Mega Man games that've been released since then have been crappy mobile games, a dolled up fangame, and a collection that costs more and has less content than the decade old Anniversary Collection. People are chomping at the bit for a truly new Mega Man game, and with the tarnishing of comcept's reputation thanks to their handling of Mighty No. 9 and Red Ash, the only other place we can go for genuine Mega Man is back to Capcom, which seems insistent on not doing anything new involving Mega Man.

VCL Presents: Motor Mayhem 2 (or a PC port of the first game): Motor Mayhem's a relatively obscure car combat game that was made by Infogrames back in the early 2000s for the PS2. Unfortunately, it tried to compete with Twisted Metal Black and got absolutely demolished for it. The game was one of my first PS2 games, and I loved it. I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel that addresses some of the issues of the first (such as a relative lack of content and the sometimes wonky physics) or at least a PC port of the original, but the developer vanished shortly after the release of this game and Infogrames turned into nu!Atari, which hasn't been doing well lately. Even if both were intact, though, I don't think a sequel would ever come because Twisted Metal Black smashed its competition into the dirt so badly that very few games have tried (and all have failed) to dethrone it as the king of its style of vehicular combat games.

wipEout PS4: wipEout is easily one of my favorite racing game series. The visuals, lore, items, arcadey gameplay and sheer speed put it leagues ahead of most other racing franchises. At least one game in the series has been on every PlayStation system from the PS1 to the Vita, and I think that bringing the series to the PS4 would give Sony a license to further develop the series' distinctive style and put it at the head of the pack with more than just wipEout fans. Unfortunately, Sony's Studio Liverpool/Psygnosis, the developers who created and developed the entire series up to the Vita's wipEout 2048, was closed down back in 2012, and the development team has been split up into a couple of different development studios. Unless a miracle happens and one of the spinoff developers steps up to the plate, I don't think a new wipEout game is coming any time soon.

You know. Atlus isn't a stranger when it comes to the usage of Goetia Demons in SMT games. You can find a list of them here. That being said. Maybe Bloodstained and SMT could have some nods to the other if not cameos.

It has a better chance of happening instead of wait for Konami to give the ok.

Another SoRR fan!! Maaan, I've spent so many hours into that remake it's not even funny! I'm totally with you that SEGA has so much potential just lying dormant, I much wish to see another "golden" era of gaming.
