So we got an Streets of Rage Remake by Bombergames. I want a Shinobi Remake or Sequel in 2D (not 3D like the PS2 Episodes). I would prefer a game like the GG Episodes (5 Ninjas with different Ninjutsus). Or at least a collection with all Games from Mastersystem (yes i want Cyber Shinobi too), Gamegear and Genesis and Saturn.
Me too. I want a 2D, 16-bit style (based on arcade System16 or SuperScaler tech, not MegaDrive/Genesis) Shinobi sequel or remake. Much in the same way that Sega has done a 16-bit System16-based remake of Fantasy Zone II, that is being released on PS2 in Japan on Sega Ages Volume 33.
I could say the same things about wanting 2D, sprite-based, late 80s/early 90s styled remakes or sequels of Shadow Dancer, Altered Beast, Golden Axe, E-SWAT, Syndrome, After Burner, ThunderBlade, OutRun, Galaxy Force, Super Hang-On, Alien Syndrome , Space Harrier, Alex Kidd, the TechnoSoft-developed, Sega-published Herzog Zwei, and Choplifter.... which Sega already did in 1985, when they remade the 1982 Apple II game into an awesome 8-bit arcade game.
I never really cared for most of Sega's made for home, MD/Gen-based sequels or remakes like Genesis E-SWAT, Shadow Dancer, Golden Axe II, III or even the Streets of Rage series (II was good but that was it). However some of them were good like Revenge of Shinobi & Shinobi III.
I don't think I would want 2D versions of Space Harrier, After Burner, Thunder Blade, Out Run or Super Hang-On. Genesis E-SWAT is better than the arcade... marginally... or at least on par for the most part (except the shrunken graphics) Genesis Shadow Dancer is leaps and bounds better than the arcade.
