I shall now reiterate what I said previously, and update it:

The fates of the central characters (Chrono, Marle, Lucca, Magus/Janus, Schala) are explained and the history of the world explained. Do you want a Chrono clone? I don't really know you, but I am guessing that deep down, you don't want that. That's called "fanservice" and it is a "dis"-service.
I'd love to see a remake of the two canonical commando games with stronger narrative. Oh, and let's get rid of the name "Super Joe" it's just lame... Well, I guess you can keep it if you really work at making it fit... that's gonna be a lot of work, though.
I'd love to see mother make a US apprearance... I think that when it was brought to the Super Famicom (as Mother 2 or earthbound) it got too cutesy... Mother was weird, and it had more style than Mother 2.
I'd really love to see a PS2 or PS3 remake of the two MSX metal gear games. Show all the ignoarant MG fans in the US what metal gear really was.
So... Now, I want to see the Chrono story finished. CC was very definitely the second game in a trilogy. It was depressing, and left open at the end... Very "Han solo in the carbonite" type of ending (and that's the good ending) What happens to [spoiler]schala? Is the "saving her" ending the official one?[/spoiler] Chrono Break will likely sell systems. I have a friend that would buy a PS3 if another Chrono game came out for it... OF course, he's already getting one for FFXIII and for MGS4 (and I'll show him the light about Lair, and he'll probably like Heavenly Sword) but, I know that holds true for many people. Squ'eenix would definitely make it, since I'm nearly certain the Mistwaker guys don't own rights to it, so chances of it being PS3 are pretty high... Unless it's PS2, which I would be more than happy with.
It's awesome I saw a port of MG1 and MG2 on Subsistence. One of my wishes actually came true... One of my other wishes came true in the crappiest way possible... Sort of... A spinoff for Bionic Commando... Lost Planet was supposed to be a Bionic Commando spinoff... I do NOT see the draw for that game... Not in the slightest... (and, yes, I HAVE played it) That's not what I wanted to see for a next gen commando game... Of course, I'm pretty sure they dropped the Bionic Commando idea early in development, so it's not
really a BC sequel... So, I still want to see a BC sequel, or maybe a high def 2d sidescroller like the upgrade that Street Fighter 2 is getting, only more because it'd be going from 8 bit to HD... I'd love that. 60fps fluid animation, maybe voice acting if they could make it not suck, flesh out the story a bit... Maybe improve the physics on the grappling cable... Give you more options with the swinging. I'd actually take that over REmake anyday... I'm not joking, either...
While we're talking high def 2d upgrades, let's talk a "Mario all stars" type upgrade on Wii... Only max out the 2d sprites, and I'm not talking about Paper Mario, either... I mean a real collection of the old mario games, including Super mario world, but in completely updated, 60fps fluidly animated sprites... That would be awesome.
Other games I'd like to see get this treatment:
Secret of Mana
Ninja Turtles (all 4 old games... The NES trilogy and the SNES game)
actually, that's all i can think of... I thought Metroid, but you already had Metroid zero, and while it's far from HD, it is a great upgrade. I thought Final Fantasy II, but... Well, PSP is getting the best of the upgrades, which is making it basically 32 bit sprites... I thought Metal Gear 1 and 2, but... Well... I'm not sure making more detailed sprites is the best way to go with those... You may as well make it 3d, since top view is the easiest to transition to 3d.
