Preferably something that hasn't also been already remade... ... unless, like, the remake was terrible

By a strict definition of the term "childhood", it would have to be something on the Coleco/Atari or maybe NES.

So something like Maniac Mansion or Shadowgate. But a straight up remake with better graphics, not a complete redo where they change everything and I stop caring (like the Shadowgate sequels).

So many...

Guardian Legend, Startropics, Time Crisis, Megaman Legends, Jumping Flash, Ape Escape, Dark Cloud, Fatal Frame, Hydro Thunder, I'm sure there are more and some have come back in one way or another.

Did you play the Shadowgate remake on Steam? It's pretty decent, but their throwback options are asinine.

Yaknow, I keep hearing this is a popular niche game ... and rare in that it's both a Zelda exploration game and a space shmup, what's the specific appeal? I mean, I guess it's kinda like Blaster Master ya?

Blaster Master is an okay comparison insofar as they're both mixed genre games. "A top-down Zelda meets vertical corridor shmup" is a decent enough summary, but Guardian Legend had this sort of mystique about it. The story was told through these logs left behind by some mysterious predecessor. The game was brutal hard but compelling enough that I wanted to persevere. It was unlike anything I had played at the time. I dunno... just always had a soft spot for the game. As far as mixed genre games go, Guardian Legend hit a lot of the right notes. Haven't played it in years so I'm not sure how it has aged, but if they announced a reboot or sequel I'd be all over it.

Dunno.. all the originals were pretty much perfect to me (some of those getting remakes or released on a bundle anyway like Guardian Heroes, Bubble Bobble, Sonic Adventure, Wonderboy)

How about Burning Rangers?

Monster Party. Clash at Demonhead. Faxanadu. A better Rygar than we got than the mediocre PS2 GoW clone we got. A better Bionic Commando remake/reboot. Battletoads. More Contra. More Kid Icarus. Rush n Attack. Karnov. Tecmo Bowl. There are a ton of NES titles that could use a spit shine.

I think being mixed makes them unique, something we remember. So it pops up when we request games to revive because there's nothing like it. After many tries I did eventually beat both. I know BM got a sequel or two so it's off my list.

To those who haven't, I'd recommend trying them with an emu or whatever. The gameplay is pretty different.

I've gotten what I wanted which was the Crash and Spyro and CTR remakes. All of them were excellent as well.

I'd still like a remake of Steambot Chronicles though. Also I'd like the Zelda Oracle games as well as the Ocarina of Time and Majora;s Mask remakes on Switch as well.

Kinda in the same boat.

Defining childhood very loosely, I've seen remakes for a few older games I liked. The only thing that's kinda missing is perhaps a remake of something like SMB3 or the early Mega Man games (sans 1 because that had Powered Up, which -- other than being on the PSP -- was decent and I'd like to see the others done in that kind of style, just without the shitty load times, etc. )

Dark Cloud 2. Update graphics and gameplay, streamline spheda (like adding in some actual fricking boundries), and a few other updates (more to do in terms of town customization and impact). I would love that.

Yes the PS1 Musashi is another I'd like. There was a sequel on PS2 but it was a bit different, not as good.
