One of the lastest trends in console gaming is selling older generation games on an online store. So, what I would like to know is what games would you like added to Xbox Live, the Playstation Network, or whatever the Wii calls their store?

This is my list:
1. Albert Odyssey for the Sega Saturn. It was my 1st JRPG.
2. Dragon Force for the Sega Saturn. An excellent strategy game
3. Guardian Heroes for the Sega Saturn(I loved my Saturn). One of the best games ever!
4. Parasite Eve for the PSX. A unique and exemplary RPG
5. Any of the Darkstalkers games. With online play.


If someone has written a thread like this before, I apologize

Golden Eye and Perfect Dark via The Wii Shop Channel.
But that won't happen since Microsoft owns Rare, but Nintendo owns the franchise and they aren't getting along :(

I think I wrote one quite similar to this...

Regardless, I want them to re-release Abe's Oddysee with easier console controls on XBL. And put the damn Quicksave in it, this time!

These are probably already out but I haven't looked, all for the Mega Drive/Genesis:

Splatterhouse 2
Golden Axe
Revenge of Shinobi
Gain Ground
Shadow Dancer

If some or all are available for download on the Wii or Xbox 360 I might consider purchase. I have the originals but all are worth at least two copies.

Isn't Golden Axe on XBL already? I'd love to see Splatterhouse on it, though.

Both of Abe's games are on Steam but the controls are a bit too complicated if you played the original console versions. It runs a LOT smoother though - which is also a bit disorientating if you were used to the old games.

Goldeneye 007 for the N64 via Xbox LIVE would be good.
That reminded me to go buy an N64 off eBay. Thank you.
I might just get Goldeneye while I'm there, I suppose.

Curse of the Catacombs and the rest of the series.
Budo, the Art of Ninja Combat.
gorillas.bat (found it but can't run it on the version of DOS that comes with Vista).

I grew up on these games. I want them back.

The banjo-kazooie games via wii shop channel, but, as was said, Microsoft owns Rare, so that's not gonna happen...

really, anything rare did on the 64 would be top notch. It is too bad that microsoft owns that company, so we will never see any of those games for virtual console or xbox live.

my list would include:

blast corps
goldeneye
banjo kazooie
dk 64
perfect dark

any of those gems would be top notch.

Suikoden and Suikoden II via XBL would be nice.
Of course, that would probably just invite the damned otakufappers to demand the other, horrible sequels to be ported too.

Two Crude Dudes. Anyone remember it? Over the top tank throwing madness. Brilliant. Steroids FTW! Oh and NARC.
