Remade Bonks would be good, but even better would be a proper sequel.

And +1 on a Popful reboot.  Falcom has remade all sorts of Ys titles, Legend of Heroes games, and even Brandish; when's it gonna be Popful's turn?

I thought the Nights HD remake on PS3 was a great example of HD remake done right.

That said.... I'd love to see Banjo Kazooie and Tooie remade properly. (Not the xbox360 rereleases)

Here are a few more titles to add to my remake list.

9. Battletoads - This game was super hard! Especially on the bike-riding level, it was just impossible to me. I was able to recently get past that bike level with a friend, but we still couldn't make it past the following level. But you know, it was such a fun game! It also had some great graphics on the NES. In a remake of Battletoads, developers need to focus on the controls a bit more. It felt loose and sort of floaty when trying to do combos on enemies. Also, the hit detection on cliff edges were off. I can't tell you how many times I fell off the cliff when I was no where near a cliff. All this made the game more difficult than it supposed to be. Other than that, it's like Double Dragon with toads. :-) The music was really cool and catchy as well.

There were other games in the series, such as Battletoads & Double Dragon and Super Battletoads. Those were really good games and perhaps don't need a remake. But the original Battletoads would be fantastic with an updated fighting system, graphics & sound, and additional characters to choose from.

10. Double Dragon II - The first Double Dragon on NES was a single player game and was not as polished. But wow, the 2nd game in the series really was the best one. It got extremely hard later on in the game. But I have to congratulate myself for beating it several years ago with a friend. I might like this game more than Streets of Rage just due to the sheer number of moves you can perform if you practiced enough. I was able to do numerous combos, not with button mashing, but with true mastery of the moves. Plus, those power uppercuts and cyclone kicks were very exhilarating when done right. The game was so fun that I can play it over and over with any coop buddy. I believe a remake would be in order with even more crazy moves and coop combos. Sure, they did a remake called Double Dragon Neon a couple of years ago. But that one just didn't feel the same. Plus, it was almost an entirely different game with fan service. A true remake would be awesome.

11. Albert Odyssey - Most people never even heard of this title, much less give it a chance. This came out on Sega Saturn, and I am so glad I gave it a shot. It's got everything a good RPG has--great graphics, lovely characters, an exciting storyline, crazy villains, cool battle system, and the superb soundtrack! It was so underrated. It would be amazing to see it running on a modern console with increased difficulty, since it was a pretty easy game. This is quite the traditional JRPG. So, a remake would be nice to have some more side quests, mini games, and anime cut scenes to add to the drama. The game can be pretty lighthearted at times until the drama kicks in. Reminds me a lot of the Lunar series. If you haven't played this game yet, I suggest you give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

Falcom should stop ignoring their old IP and make a new Popful Mail game. 

Just sayin...
This Ys has it's share i think popful mail to should get a remake or sequel.
Popful Mail did get a remake...on Sega CD.  :) Totally thew the old gameplay out the window.   Good enough I don't think it needs a remake.  Now, a new game would with Mail would be awesome!

I want both a remake and a new game(s).  They'd surely go 3D like the Ys games, which are so different in how they're played that the remade games are worth playing even if you've played the originals.

Oh shit, Genpei Toumaden.   I can't believe I didn't think of this.  With better graphics, improved controls & difficulty, I think the prospect of a Samurai crossing back over the river Sanzu to wreak undead vengeance on his captors would make for a really interesting remake, especially in the art department.  If they kept it 2-D (or did some cell shading stuff like they did with Okami) then they could very easily pull off the Japanese Yamato-e or Woodblock print art style that would do such a game tremendous justice.
