If ever a game needed to be resurrected, it would have to be Skies of Arcadia. The premier RPG on the Sega Dreamcast, followed by an updated release on the Gamecube.

Sega, this would be your time to reclaim some of your lost glory. Skies would find such a following on the Switch, with its portability. Simply PORTING the Legends version from the Nintendo Gamecube would satisfy most of your hardcore fans. We just want to be able to replay that great game without paying hundreds of dollars for a good copy.

For those of you who may be unfamiliar with Skies, it is a traditional turn based rpg with many of the old mainstays, leveling up, exploration, airships, and hard ass heck boss fights. I can't tell you how many controllers I broke with anger, or worse, when I finally beat the boss that had been kicking my butt for hours, just to jump up throw my fist in the air, scream something really mature like "YEAH!!!!!!! TAKE THAT YOU SONOFA....." It was only then you realized you ripped the cord from the controller........yeah.....that was a thing. Nostalgia for the win!

I'm getting off topic.....

The game put you in control of Vyse, a young air pirate aboard his fathers ship. He, along with his friends Aika, Fina, Drachma (think Captain Ahab), Gilder, and Enrique set out to stop the empire from awakening ancient weapons. It's the same ole story, you ragtag group of misfit must join together to save the world.

But fun....... I don't recall ever having so much fun playing or exploring in a RPG. Think back to that first time you played Final Fantasy VII....remember that feeling? That's what I'm talking about here.

Anyways.....enough of my ranting. What do you think? What classic games would you like to see come to the Switch?
