Ya'll hate remakes but right now, with the way this economy is, I expect to see a ton more remakes of everything.
People are not trying to gamble right now on something that "might" work when they can just look at what has worked, refresh it, and make that almost guaranteed buck. I think it also speaks to the core age group of console gamers. I guess I should do some actual research on it but just anecdotally, kids today seem to be more interest in iphone/ipad gaming with Roblux probably owning a chunk of the segment. Seems to me early consoles were purchased for kids, and those kids have now grown up and still want the feeling of those old games because I don't see how any 9 year old is out here hype over the Star Fox remake or the Ocarina of Time Remake.
