I thought this was a good cross section for games that should get an upgrade. Some older, some newer. Some arcade. Others, to give them more room to excel.

Although I don't like the options (why Rastan Saga 2?), I voted for Shinobi 3. Beyond Oasis would get my vote of any Genesis game.
If we are talking about arbitrary expansion to levels, animation, number of enemy characters and lastly cutscenes/story I'd have to pick Strider. That game just screams to be fleshed out in all of those areas. Aside from that, I'd rather the game be made and the ROM size end up wherever it may.
Panorama cotton.
I'm torn between Strider and Fatal Fury...I love em both....but Im leaning toward Fury
I voted for Gunstar Heroes.
The game is amazing enough as it is, but just imagine what it could turn into if it had that much more room...
The Strider MAME ROM is 5.33MBytes at most. That's only 42Mbits or so. I would demand new levels and better animation at a minimum, plus some new enemies with unique animations and maybe some special weapons. ;)
64M version of Fatal Fury Special, fuck the low color Sega CD version, gimme a cart of FFS!
I voted for Duke Nukem 3D. Hail to the king, baby!
No love for Altered Beast or Rastan Saga 2.
Duke nukem 3D gets my vote.
How about a hybrid of Strider and Strider 2 (Not Return of Strider :p ) . . . like some of the elements of Strider 2 converted more to Strider 1 graphical style (and generally practical for the MD) and built out from the original Strider.
That, or Strider 2's levels in their entirety done in that manner and not Strider 1 at all. (except that's a different topic entirely :p )
Also, why stop at 64 Mbits . . . Sega's own mapper (only used in SSFII) was already designed to handle up to 256 Mbits of ROM. ;)
I put in my vote for Rastan Saga 2. I'd like to see this game arcade perfect. If it only takes half of the 64 MEG, then, how about adding Rastan 1 arcade perfect to the cart as well? We'll get a 2 for 1. Great since the genesis never got part 1. Rastan Saga 2 had a lot of cuts as seen in this video(similar to Strider).

While I see Strider, Forgotten Worlds, Ghouls 'n Ghosts, and Truxton are also in the same boat. They suffer from being early releases that would have gotten much better treatment if released a 2 or 3 years later. At least with all of these games, the gameplay and games themselves were left intact. Another good one for the list would be one of the Worms games. Maybe Armageddon? At least a downgraded version of it.
I would like to see Fatal Fury Special on the Genesis,
a 40M Cart not a 64M Cart
