    Does anyone remember the Samurai Showdown RPG that SNK made for the Neo Geo? Hell, I’ll settle for just a localized port of that game to the Switch.

    Anyway, I’d love to see a remake of the four original Super Robot Wars titles, but combined them into a single game.

    QotW: To avoid the obvious Square answers, I’ll go for the only slightly less obvious Phantasy Star IV. We’re probably never going to get a new entry in that series (that isn’t an MMO), so at least a remake would give it the attention it deserves. For a non-RPG, maybe Dune II, the RTS breakout. Or even the weird original Dune.

    TBH, I’m pretty excited about the DQIII remake – and the Front Mission ones look pretty good too.

  3. I would be most interested in seeing remakes of either or both Kyūyaku Megami Tensei and Shin Megami Tensei: if… The former would be sort of funny since the KMT is itself a remake of the very first RPGs in the metaseries, Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei I and II. As for SMT: if…, it is the transitional form between (Shin) Megami Tensei and Persona. I find the game fascinating and would love to play it on a modern console.

    QOTW: As a Tales fanboy, and since Breath of Fire and Wild Arms were already spoken for, I’m gonna say the OG Tales of Phantasia. I have it on GBA, but I would love to see that given a 2.5D modern polish and updates that made it feel and run better.

    Long time listener first time poster. I can tell you that Overlord is a fun bit of power fantasy isekai anime though try not to be disappointed in the cgi they use its a bit ugly not quite Berserk 2018 levels bad but its not good either. For the question of the week I would like to see Lufia 2 get an HD 2d remake I loved the puzzles and the Ancient Cave side mode plus the capsule monsters had been pretty cool.

    I would like SEGA to properly update Phantasm Star 1- 4. Another game I would like to see is Sailor moon another story. I know it was never brought over here, but it would be interesting to see them remake it.

    TAM:

    Follow up from Last week. Overlord very good anime, though Season goes a little silly at times. Apparently there is a season 4 on it’s way though.

    As for a question of the week, I’d love to see either Chrono Trigger or Lufia 2 get an actual loving remake. I know Lufia 2 did get a remake … but I’d prefer to not believe that game exists.
