    Default Best NES game - that has never been re-released?

    So after the classic nes series, countless other reissues and "best-of" disks, what still has not made it on to any more modern console? We can pretty savely rule out most everyting Nintendo has ever done, all the Final Fantasy games, all the Mega Men, and a ton of others. So my question is what is the best game never to get an encore?

    Amagon.

    I don't really have a lot to say about the game, it's either you hate the game, or you love to hate the game. I for one, find it extremely challenging. As for an encore, I think that just an updated version of the orginal would kick mucho ass-o! Maybe I'm just addicted to it because you can see the end of the game in the first screenshot. Perhaps. All I know is that I enjoy it, and don't know of any other version.

    Yes, awesome series. I also don't think Crystalis ever got a re release, if not it deserves one, along with Kid Icarus and the Adventures of Lolo series.

    EDIT: Nevermind, Crystalis was on the Game Boy. But now Mighty Bombjack comes to mind.

    I say don't want them to re-release games. I don't want to buy some old game because designers can't come up with new ideas. I say stop bringing out re-releases and keep the originals in high demand so they go up in price.

    Oh, and Psycho Mantis, can you cut down on the size of your avatar, please? It pushes the whole topic out.

    Monster Party. God I love that game. I'd love to see a sequel or a remake. I wonder who owns the rights at this point, and if anyone besides me even cares. Hmm.

    I assume we are talking about rerelease in the US since some games mentioned have been rereleased overseas. I really wish Tecmo would release the Tecmo Hit Parade over here. So other than those games i would like a rerelease of

    Mendel Palace and Star Soldier. I know Star Soldier saw a GCN remake over in Japan (gotta get me a copy of that one!) but I don't know of any rerelease of it here in the states.
