Games i would love to see made..

[Jubei]

There are a few iPhone games i would love to see...
Maybe if people post here what games they would like (realistically speaking) developers who browse this website will get new ideas and maybe develop some of them..

here are some games i would like

1. Yugioh: yes i know alot of people hate yugioh, the show is actually pretty dumb but i would love to play a card/strategy game. and Yugioh games are pretty fun..

2. Age of Empires (or something similar): Yes i am aware of Strategic Assault, if the game was drastically improved i would be ok with that, otherwise a new game needs to be made...

3. more rpg games, because they are just awesome.!

[super6ft7]

realistically, I think someone should get in touch with the makers of some Internet gems, everyonce in a while I think "this game would be awesome on iPhones"

But really until they make a replica gow2 with same graphics, nothing is as good as papi+

[McGill]

I'd like to add one to the list...

RATS & SPEARS!!!

Used to be one of my favorite mobile games on palm.

[pablo19]

ABSOLUTE ANY GAME from nitrome.com they make great games and some of them would be awsome to have for the iphone/ipod touch

[twokidtech]

I know it sounds really gay but I tried one DBZ game and it was pretty good, but that's because I like fighting games... right now there's only Funky Punch in the App Store. and even though the DBZ games have really weird names (look it up if you want to know) I would like to see a high-quality fighting game on the App Store... come to think of it, even if it's NOT dbz... yeah actually let's scratch out DBZ and make it any high-quality fighting game that plays well with replay value...

[Armbruster]

I'm working on a GameBoy Advanced emulator. You can hook up any ROM in the library to play (download it straight from the game), including Mario Kart Advanced and the Pokemon series. Expect a release date once I earn $99 for the AppStore Developer thing. Hopefully Apple approves it.

[tunawrap]

sweet! an emulator! i hope apple approves it!(yeah right)

[(klondike)]

@Armbruster
Apple won't approve any emulators. ZodTTD already tried Apple rejected it and plus it's illegal to download a Rom you don't own (I do it anyway). The only way your gonna release an emulator is through Cydia or Installer.app. If Apple accepts it though I'll gladly buy it.

[rootbeersoup]

No way would Apple approve an emulator

[Armbruster]

I was going to release it for free. Too bad Apple's a prick, it would make a good addition. I don't want to release stuff on Cydia, I would just feel dirty.

[(klondike)]

@Armbruster
I would have bought it even if it was $10! That's too bad though. Seriously though you should release it on Cydia! If you've already done all this work on it then you should get it out there! I would download it for sure.

[mar12]

a kickboxing game !!! my kingdom for a kickboxing or good fighting game.....well maybe not my kingdom but i would give up 10 clams...

[Chiller ONE]

a kickboxing game !!! my kingdom for a kickboxing or good fighting game.....well maybe not my kingdom but i would give up 10 clams...

A good fighting game would be awesome. Something like Mortal Kombat...

I would also love to see a Contra clone!

[Maythius]

You guys are all forgetting the obvious choice

I think we need to write a petition to have namco create
a full fledged:

Katamari game!

That would be amazing!

[plaidman]

I've seen and said it earlier... I'd pay good money for a decent Elite game.

[super6ft7]

A well done wii sports clone, touch and motion controls

[jakemann23]

a solid rpg would be sweet. also, i think it would be easy to do an rts. touch screen and rts just seem to be made for eachother.

[jwbrent]

Hexcite! A great board game I first played on the GBC.

[1337brian]

I want to see a clone of an old Sega Genesis game called General Chaos -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_chaos. It was a multiplayer game and if they could somehow implement online mulitplayer, I would pay $20.00

[eyemh8]

FPS: Duke nukem 3d or rise of the triad (ROTT). with online play would be a plus.

[dannys95]

a solid 3d platformer with awesome graphics and good concept. i want to play it by viewing my "beautiful display". who does that remind you of?

[MarkEightThree]

I was going to post my ideas in this topic, but then I got carried away and decided to do a whole blog post on games I would like to see made:

http://gamexp.wordpress.com/2008/11/07/bring-me-these-ipod-touch-games/

What do you guys think? Aside from the Tap Tap request which will never happen, I think they're all pretty reasonable.

[McChikun]

Holy crap, I actually remember General Chaos, and it was a sweet game!

[Haephestos]

I would like to see a proper RTS with good gfx and a wide selection of units. I would also like to see a FPS.
But, in my wildest dreams, I would love to see:

Red Alert 3
Crysis / Crysis Warhead
Unreal Tournament 3

But, my dreams are reality.......






Mwahahaha

[Haephestos]

I would also like to see an RPG like oblivion or Fallout 3. The iPhone would work quite well with this genre as you could use the accelerometer to move and buttons down one side of the screen for different attacks / items. If only they made WoW for iPhone without a subscription fee.......

(sorry for the double post)

[sdragon]

a solid rpg would be sweet.
There's Vay, a port of a jRPG.

[mek]

C64 games:

Archon
Aztec Challenge
Rat Race
Spy vs Spy
that Wizard Game, dont recall the game

other styles of games
a in depth C&C or RTS

another TBS like Reign of Swords

a better Risk Style Game, maybe Axis and Allies Style

A Civilization empire style game

Flash ports
Dice Wars
The Last Stand

but i dunno, i'm pretty content with all the flashlight apps and sudoku games

[shift_gc]

I think any sort of card game would be awesome, especially if you could play against people online. A real trading card game like yugioh, magic, WoW or something like that, or maybe a completely unique IP.

[spacerage]

I'd love a red alert game. I've been tempted to make one myself, but I want to continue work on my current game first :)

[Haephestos]

I'd love a red alert game. I've been tempted to make one myself, but I want to continue work on my current game first :)
Oooooo! Make one! Make one!

XD

[rootbeersoup]

I want emulators so frickin badly

I can not wait for the 2G jailbreak

[flyingflettner]

Pokemon: all of them. even in original graphics from GBA cos that gives it charm. Donkey kong, Legend of Zelda, Harry potter, Sonic, Super Mario, Mario Kart, propper version of frogger, dragonball, Spyro, digger, kungfu master, little fighter, prince of persia, super mario world, tom and jerry, the simpsons, GTA, spiderman, woody woodpecker racing and lastly inspector gadget. all old games gameboy advane or colour. can be ported easily to iphone. at least pls port pokemon. all versions. red, blue etc.

[flyingflettner]

nt emulators just normal games on appstore

[rootbeersoup]

nt emulators just normal games on appstore

Emulators would make it 10000000000% easier --------- and free

[MyDarkDesire]

Madness Combat... or jonny rocket fingers... they are just awesome!!!!

[Eli]

Emulators would make it 10000000000% easier --------- and free

The problem is the legal grey area emulators find themselves in. Especially with the XBOX Live Arcade and Wii Virtual console, I don't really think anyone can feign ignorance and claim that roms are abandonware anymore.

[LordCrom]

I would like to see an update of Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Chrono Trigger.

[alexhardy]

Sticking with games that have an outside chance of getting made (e.g. nothing emulated or made by Nintendo)...

* Chronotron (Flash game)
* Grim Fandango
* Lost Winds
* NiGHTS into Dreams
* Portal
* Puzzle Bobble (there are clones in the app store, but the original is the best)
* RTS like Command & Conquer
* World of Goo

A jRPG like Sega's Shining Force or Panzer Dragoon Saga would be great too :)

[Benegesserit]

We definitely could use a YuGiOh port. The only good non-traditional card game I've found so far is Orions.

[dashzed]

Battle for wesnoth!!!

They so need to port that game!!!

[Isilel]

I have already said it elsewhere, But it couldn't hurt to repeat it:

I want to see ports of the PC RPG and adventure classics: the Ultimas (including Ultima Underworlds), the Wizardries, the Might and Magics, the Jagged Alliances, the Fallouts, the Elites, the Broken Swords, the Gabriel Knights, the Monkey Islands, Full Throttle, The Grim Fandango, etc.

I also wish to see ports of indie games made by Jeff Vogel - he already develops for the Mac, so it shouldn't be all that difficult, right?

I'd also love a DnD RPG (even ports of the Gold Box games), but it is probably even more of a pipe dream than all the rest.

And finally, ports of great Japanese games for the DS - Chrono Trigger, turned-based tactics games, Professor Layton, maybe one of the Final Fantasies, etc.

Regarding Chronotron: FYI, I know the developer from a messageboard he frequents, and he currently has a DS version looking for a publisher. I've encouraged him to make an iPhone version as well :) You can follow the dev on Twitter if you want: http://twitter.com/Chronotron

[Diablohead]

I was going to release it for free. Too bad Apple's a prick, it would make a good addition. I don't want to release stuff on Cydia, I would just feel dirty.

And downloading the required roms is not? :rolleyes:

[alexhardy]

@lazypeon Great, will do!

[posterized]

Not sure if anyone here is aware of it but here's my wish game, which I think would work great with the iPhone interface.

Any one of the Princess Maker series would bring back childhood memories.


fyi
Apparently there's PSP versions of the game.
http://www.gamertell.com/gaming/comment/important-importables-reasons-to-love-princess-maker/

[stargazer513]

i want a gba/ nds emulator and we can download roms from online with it=.=

[cmass]

How about something like freestyle biking or motorcycle, in 2D, something like Bike or Die 2 but where you do lots of tricks and freestyle stuff, on ramps, verts, pipes, rails etc etc . I think it could be great. update: the title, was WISH game.

[Prab]

I'd love those deep story RPG games that Square Soft always makes (but only for the PS) :-(

[Aaronlovesyou]

I want sims for the iphone!i know many consider that game gay but it really kept me entertained for hours!!!! The sims castaway for the psp was rather good.

[Geschlagen]

Battle for wesnoth!!!

They so need to port that game!!!

That would be awesome, it is one of my absolute all time favourites. And if you could play it online, I would even pay alot for it.

Id also loved to have a thing like the flash game defend your castle (funny like hell with the touchscreen).

[parranoya]

Diablo or Diablo like hack and slash ---that AMON game will probably not work out to well.

[Olonnais]

Monkey Island

[Markomcm]

Wing Commander I & II including Secret Missions

Stellar 7

Lucasarts and Sierra Adventure Games
- Maniac Mansion
- Day of the Tentacle
- Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis
- Monkey Island Series
- Grim Fandango
- Full Throttle
- Kings Quest I thru VI
- Police Quest I thru III
- Leisure Suit Larry Series
- Phantasmagoria
- Quest for Glory I - III
- Gabriel Knight I - III


Road Rash

Xwing or Tiefighter

Dark Forces

Blade Runner the adventure game

Starcraft

Diablo

Xcom

Crusader: No Remorse

Zork Series

Mechwarrior

that's my wishlist for now.

[dannys95]

N or N+.

Give me this and I will be happy forever.

[gscal]

N or N+.

Give me this and I will be happy forever.

Great game. I agree with you completely! :D

[Seiker]

I would love to see some PC strategy war games from back in the later DOS days, like Warlords, Panzer General, or my personal favorites from QQP, Grandest Fleet, Lost Admiral, or Perfect General...great turn-based strategy games that had awesome AI and only got better when played against an opponent...

[Nate5911]

I think it would be awesome to see a world wide multi player Mario Party. That would be cool.

[Jamesiscool]

rpg games with controls like iDracula and aerial views.
-Breath of Fire
-Zelda
-Gauntlet
-games where you can move around one huge world

[skyberrys]

Ultima sounds like a great iPhone port :)

[Rohan Dalal]

i would love to see mario on iphone/itouch
i dont care about the nes thing...we need it on the real app store

[Pocketim]

What I really want is a game with a level editor, and an online server to trade levels on. Preferably a platformer, even though they are kinda hard to make on the iPod Touch...

Maybe just something like Platform Racing 2, minus the racing.

[mrbass]

Dreamblade (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreamblade)....I spent $800 on that puppy....now give me some love and bring it to iphone Wizards of the Coast. I can't afford any more expansions and if I attempt to buy any my wife will leave me.

[spamboy]

JET SET RADIO. I will die in peace after Sega makes that game.

[freedog]

Id like to see a port of the psx games Heart of Darkness and Jersey Devil amongst many others.

[romulus]

PORTAL!!! (and Tyrian, although apparently that's coming)

[iFonePhanatic]

I also want some emulators on the App Store, but I don't think they will ever have any. I would have to jailbreak to do it

[Ph4ntom4]

This game would be pretty cool on iPod, though it would have to be changed a bit. You could have proper stats and fighting could be controlled a bit, but the online part would make it cool.

http://sturfpwns.mybrute.com

[CDubby94]

Okay I have the GBA Emulator with pretty much every GBA game ever made on there. Honestly about 99% of the games are crappy and unplayable on an iDevice. The graphics are extermely bogged down, and the controls are very sketchy. It's frustrating and can ruin even the best of games. Emulators are not all they're cracked up to be, very few (like Pokemon and Sonic Advanced) are good games that are actually playable on the iDevice using an emulator. Emulators are mostly used for showing off what your device can do, although there are some games that are still entertaining.

[spamboy]

I think I've said this before, but I want to see a proper Jet Set Radio made for iDevices.

[bulky78]

Check this :

http://www.motion-twin.com/blog/entry/378

It's in French but it seems that MyBrute is coming on iPhone. Yes !!!

[KiLLs]

Socom FTB 2 ( for the psp ) Gameloft NEEDS TO MAKE THIS GAME PLEASE!!!!!!! WITH ONLINE MULTIPLAYER!!!!!!!!:D

[antonioj]

Just asked Glu if they plan to bring the greatest J2ME games ever made, and among the best turn strategy games in all platfroms, to the iphone:

http://www.macrospace.com/games/ancient_empires/index.shtml

They could release AE 1 and AE 2 with improved graphics and gameplay, and finally come out with AE 3...it would totally own all other TBT strategy games on the iphone

[icepulse]

"The Ur-Quan Masters"

A re-creation of "Star Control II", basically.

http://sc2.sourceforge.net/

Quite possibly my favorite PC game of all time.

[Swordplay]

I would like to see the next installent of space channel 5 and samba de amigos hit the iPhone.

[dashzed]

how about all the Blurst.com games? They are made with Unity, so it shouldn't be too hard to port them to the iphone...:rolleyes:

[BATTLE BORN]

return to zork.
Blake Stone.
Bioshock.
Portal.

[Hafiz]

FFVII:Crisis Core would be awesome!
but i think it´s impossible to make...

[LBG]

A decent bike racing sim. Something like MotoGP or SBK would do nicely :D

[Der-Kleine]

Portal
Half-Life 2 Deathmatch
TrackMania United
FlatOut 2
Audiosurf

[Swordplay]

I would like to see

Okami
House of the dead
Phantasy star online
Sonic
resident evil
street fighter with awesome controls

[jack000]

Monkey Island!:(

[MacDaddy]

Blizzard should port the original StarCraft and Diablo games for iPhone - would give me another reason to play them again :)

[pjmaybe]

There's a whole bunch of classic C64 games I'd love to see polished up and brought back from the dead. Scarabeus, H.E.R.O, Alleykat, Uridium, Racing Destruction Set

Probably a fair amount of classic old 16-bit titles too. Sega really need to get their butts in gear and get some of their older IPs onto the iPhone though not just Sonic, some of their other interesting bits and bobs.

(Kid Chameleon on iPhone? Oh blimey yes!)

[pjmaybe]

Blizzard should port the original StarCraft and Diablo games for iPhone - would give me another reason to play them again :)

If Starcraft ever got done, I think I could kiss sleep goodbye for good.

[Owl]

Midtown Madness 2. Or three, but I never played three, since it's for x-box.

For those who don't know what Midtown Madness is...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midtown_Madness_(series)

[Masmo]

It would be incredible in Ubisoft ported a toned downed version of H.A.W.X !

[stranger]

Amen to that!

[pjmaybe]

Midtown Madness 2. Or three, but I never played three, since it's for x-box.

For those who don't know what Midtown Madness is...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midtown_Madness_(series)

MM1 would be fine by me as it had the best city (Chicago). MM2, too ambitious. MM3 was pap in comparison to the other two (except multiplayer on Live)

If we're doing the whole 3D Microsoft gaming greats thing, Crimson Skies for me and based on the PC classic not the crappy console versh.

[XGLITE]

It would be incredible in Ubisoft ported a toned downed version of H.A.W.X !

+1, a great 3d flying game, de-railed, would be awesome.

Although I would love a strategy game like total war/civilization, and a good deathmatch fps (can't wait for livefire and prey)

[MrSnap]

I'd like to see more online enabled board games. I love that Scrabble has an online function, being able to play against people on Facebook is great.

Games I'd like to see:

Settlers of Catan
Ticket to Ride
Puerto Rico
Lost Cities
Any German board game really (a good one though ;p)
World of Goo
Civilization series
Anno series

[rojaz]

burnout:revenge - best burnout game imo
mirrors edge
lemmings 2: the tribes

[MojoArcanus]

I'd love to see Majesty: The Kingdom Sim and its expansion pack ported over from PC. That would be AWESOME!!!

[TRIPLE BEAM DREAM]

donkey kong

[Isilel]

How about those court drama P&C adventures for GBA/DS? Something Justice? Sounds like an interesting concept and would work well on the Touch.

Oh, and a port of The Broken Sword 1, of course. Of the original voiced PC version, not of the "Director's Cut" DS edition without voices. I mean, ScummV folks already have it working well on jailbroken iDevices - how difficult could it be?

The more good adventure games, the better.

[Trogdor]

If They Released Like Any Pokemon Game, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Mario, Dragonball Z(preferably something Like budokai) And Like Any NES/N64 Games Would Be Awesome

[gus1]

My request is for EA's Desert Strike or Nuclear Strike. That'd be a cool helicopter shooter!

[deadweight]

I'm a sucker for retro multiplayer games. The arcades had a 4-player top-down racing game like Rally-X that was always fun. When 3.0 comes out, would be cool to do a "All Bluetooths in the Area Get Ready to Race" game like that.

Same goes for the old atari 4-player breakout game. Castles or something?

[kdrieu]

These games consumed way too much of my time.

C64: M.U.L.E., Archon, Seven Cities of Gold, Loderunner, Jumpman
Amiga: Lemmings, It Came From The Desert, Speedball, Stormball, Killing Game Show, Shadow of The Beast (anything by Psygnosis)
PC: 3D Ultra Pinball series, 7th Guest, AOE

A couple of recent indies that would be nice to see on the iphone are Harvest: Massive Encounter, Blueberry Garden, and Dyson.

[f e a r l e s s]

Jazz Jackrabbit 1&2, Prince of Persia 1&2, Mortal Kombat & NBA JAM. Mmmmmm retro...

[TheeGravedigger]

There was a classic mac game that I think would port well.

The Scarab of Ra. Simple dungeon (Pyramid) exploration game with an Egyptian theme and some nice twists.

[Mwalk]

I'd like to see Pandemic in all it's versions get ported to the idevice.

(Pandemic is a game which you take control of a disease and infect the world).

[Shroud]

I would love to see two old Amiga games:

1. Mega Lo Mania
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XY9nOVwObM&annotation_id=annotation_129470&feature=iv

2. Wings
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEIARv4zpCk

[Fattttyman]

I Want to see punch out on the I pod touch/I phone.

[GlassJoe]

"The Ur-Quan Masters"

A re-creation of "Star Control II", basically.

http://sc2.sourceforge.net/

Quite possibly my favorite PC game of all time.

The things I would do to have Star Control 2 on my itouch . . . Not only is the story excellent, but melée is amazing. I would settle for SC1 also. The gameplay is similar to Arcon (notice stARCONtrol) with both chess-like strategy and high-intensity, overhead, space dogfights.
I also Second Punch-Out Fattyman.

[beetle004]

motorstorm, burnout series, GTA series or quake.But that's asking for too much isn't it?

[super6ft7]

motorstorm, burnout series, GTA series or quake.But that's asking for too much isn't it?

Too little my friend, too little!

I would like fallout 3 fully ported with the DLC, oblivion and Mass Effect. Skate 2 and Far Cry w/ map editor and i am only just getting started

but seriously a iPhone version of some of these games (specifically Skate 2) would be awesome

[MacDaddy]

Multiplayer RTS games. Would be hectic :)

[romulus]

Commander Keen!

EDIT: Oh yeah, and the stuff in my sig:
Alien Hominid, Castle Crashers, Monkey Island, Sam & Max, Swords & Soldiers

[Casey]

Digimon World 2 - it was a good game on the original PlayStation, and I think the iPhone could handle it.

[zero144]

I would like to see Final Fantasy Tactics :the war of the lions or any of those titles made for the iphone/ipod touch. i would pay up to $15 for a good quality title like that. hopefully square enix is listening because all they have been releasing lately is rubbish. bring on some of your real games!

[sjleworthy]

retro stuff for me -

chuckie egg
pac land
r-type
out run
sonic hedgehog (original)
after burner
bubble bobble

[Ponagathos]

I would like to see the Shining Force turn based games I used to play on the Sega Genesis. The were fun, casual games you could pick up anytime and play even if you were only half paying attention. They could work well on this platform.

[Kerberus]

now, i didn't read the whole thread but i made it to page 10 and only saw it mentioned in one post, towards the bottom of their list....


CIV...I, II, III, VI!!!

(thats Sid Meier's Civilization for those who have been living under a rock)

any of these would work out well on the iDevice i think...

why hasn't anyone ported this over yet? i think it would be the best strategy game ever on the Iphone/touch... ever... really i mean it:D

[BOWB4ZOD]

1) Command and Conquer Red Alert 1

2) Star Craft

3) Warcraft 2

4) GTA 1 and 2

[Porsupah]

PC: 3D Ultra Pinball series, 7th Guest, AOE

I don't suppose anyone knows what Graeme Devine, of The 7th Guest/The 11th Hour fame, is up to these days? I recall he wound up in some Texan game studio.. of course, whether he retains any of the rights to the games, following Trilobyte's demise, is another matter, but someone must.

And I'll put my vote in for Sam & Max, and The Sentinel (http://members.chello.at/theodor.lauppert/games/sentinel.htm). ^_^

i think theyd be brilliant too. even simple ones like civ rev would be fine too. i just want civilization on my ipod :(

[Kerberus]

i think theyd be brilliant too. even simple ones like civ rev would be fine too. i just want civilization on my ipod :(

yep, even if you discount IV because of the advanced graphics... civ III had good graphics and yet was simple enough to understand.... UniWar is on the right track but not quite all there... hell i'd even pay $10 for a good civ port...

any devs out there listening?:D

[J.R. Jalapeno]

any of the old vectrex arcade games like star castle, star wars, space duel, etc. would be awesome

[nupedogg]

Would love to see Settlers of Cataan on the IDevice.

[kcbc]

Hmmm...

Archon was mentioned. It is in the works and due out shortly i do believe. Good vs. Evil is supposedly along those lines too but have not tried it. Would personally Love to see Dark Legions which was a much deeper & better version of an archon type game. So for the list...

1. Dark Legions! Believe SSI made this
2. Fantasy General (like panzer General) SSI again..
3. Castle Crashers type game..
4. Wish the iDracula and Underworlds developers got together to make the ultimate diablo style game with the graphic & control quality of iDracula, and the story and feel of Underworlds... YUM!!!
5. Speedball
6. Final Fantasy tactics like DS has
7. Devil dice
8. Wizard of Wor for the C64. Simple but addicting!

[colorsound]

There are a lot of games that I am dying for to come to the ipod touch - here are just a few:


- TiQal
- Orbz*
- Lumines
- Meteos
- Peggle Nights
- Bejewelled Twist
- Klax
- Strider
- Gunpey
- (Sega) Nights
- Riven
- Glyph 2
- Luxor 2
- Luxor 3
- Luxor: Quest for the Afterlife
- Zuma
- Plants vs Zombies


*Someone put out a game called Orbz. It is NOT the one I am referring to. The one I would love to have on my ipod is from GarageGames

[SoCal_Sponger]

I wish for an exact port of Diablo I and a port of Diablo II (within the iPhone/Touch limits). Sacred was another amazing RPG, that would be really sick to have.

[fantomik]

I would like to see a game similar to David Braben "Frontier First Encounters" (GoF qualify to be similar to Elite in my opinion, FFE was much more complex). And a remake of Ishar 1 and/or 2 would be very desired in my opinion (iPhone have too few good RPG titles right now :/).

Cheers,
f.

[kuler51]

We need Civilization type games. PERIOD. How bout the FreeCiv team ports it over :)))

[S.I.D. CrAzY]

Not sure if anybody has mentioned it, but I would love to see the Phoenix Wright series, The World Ends With You, and Elite Beat Agents ported to the iPod Touch.

Especially EBA.

If that ever happened, my Touch would officially replace my DS lite.

[Cowboyman381]

Gotta chime in here with BURGERTIME !

That would be cool !

[soup]

We need Civilization type games. PERIOD. How bout the FreeCiv team ports it over :)))

totally agree !
CIV 2 would be excellent but any would do !

[EnlightenedOne1]

Star Control 2, which is probably my favorite game of all time. The Dreamcast classic Seaman would be pretty cool as well.

[MartiNZ]

I don't suppose anyone knows what Graeme Devine, of The 7th Guest/The 11th Hour fame, is up to these days? I recall he wound up in some Texan game studio.. of course, whether he retains any of the rights to the games, following Trilobyte's demise, is another matter, but someone must.

And I'll put my vote in for Sam & Max, and The Sentinel (http://members.chello.at/theodor.lauppert/games/sentinel.htm). ^_^

Yes. I was hopeful that's what 'Sentinel' was when I saw it on the App Store ><.

Warlords I/II/III in case I haven't said it before in this thread.

Lemmings games could be fun too.

[S.I.D. CrAzY]

EBA = published by Nintendo, and Nintendo holds joint copyright over the title and the original JP game on which it was based (Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan).

So...no. It will NEVER be ported. Ever.

Best bet is to just get by with World of Tunes, which isn't a bad game at all.

And, I know that when this topic was made many moons ago people kept posting these things, but I'll reiterate:

Any Nintendo owned or jointly owned IP will NEVER be ported or developed for non-Nintendo hardware. EVER.

So no Pokemon, no Mario, no Fire Emblem, no EBA, etc. Nintendo does not make games for other hardware, and has not since they've been in the video game hardware business.

The best we can hope is that Sega, who has well known IP in the same genre (though playing significantly different due to the difference in game design philosophy), finally takes their heads out of their asses and develops new versions of and/or ports existing versions of the catalog of game IPs.

No Mario? No problem if there's Sonic. And Alex Kidd for that matter (IMHO, Alex Kidd in Miracle World = or > Super Mario Bros.). And, yes, I know they've announced a port of Sonic 1. After a friggin' year of nothing from them. Wow. Love Sonic 1...but that's a crumb compared to what they could've, and should've, been doing all this time. A tasty crumb to be sure, but a crumb nonetheless. Where's the steak, Sega? I want a full course, damn it!

Anyway...back on track:

No Fire Emblem? No biggie if there's Shining Force (and I mean the REAL Shining Force. Turn based strategy, not that real time crap Sega has been throwing at us since last gen).

No Pokemon? Not that big of an issue if Sega makes an iTouch/Phone version of Dinosaur King, which, although not the same, is close enough.

EBA? Eh...there's always Space Channel 5. And, tbqh...I really though Sega would at least try their hand at a version of Space Channel 5. Would fit right in on this type of platform.

Oh I know its published by Nintendo, I didn't think the games we mentioned had to be plausible in any way though. Just wild dreams :)

I tried World of Tunes...ehhh...no thank you.

Civilization Revolution could work if they port over the DS version.

[AchillesReborn]

I was going to release it for free. Too bad Apple's a prick, it would make a good addition. I don't want to release stuff on Cydia, I would just feel dirty.
Of course apple won't let you release a GBA emulator on the app store. It doesn't make them a prick at all; the reasons why they won't let you are obvious and valid to anyone with a brain.

To be honest, the very fact that you are stupid enough to believe you could release a GBA emulator on the app store makes me doubt you have the ability to develop one.

[Albo]

I would crap my pants if Civilizaton Revolution was announced, or Catan (which seems like it would be very easy to make).

[newwave151]

why doesn't square enix port any of their final fantasy games onto the iPhone~

undoutbly they are one of the best rpg developers out there!

[aafuss]

Age of Empires-Glu Mobile apparently did a mobile port of the third game for the N-Gage platform and I'd like to see them do a iPhone version.

[graphite]

Yes. I was hopeful that's what 'Sentinel' was when I saw it on the App Store ><.

Warlords I/II/III in case I haven't said it before in this thread.

Lemmings games could be fun too.

THE Sentinal would be awesome, so would Zarch. Surely perfect for iPhone controls?

[DannyV]

I would LOVE to see Braid made for the iDevices. I've wanted to play that game for a long time.

[mentalfish]

I'll add my vote for Wings.

Cool to see Amiga games such as Pinball Dreams and Ports of Call being released for the iPhone, good memories.

[DaveMc99]

These games consumed way too much of my time.
C64: M.U.L.E., Archon, Seven Cities of Gold, Loderunner, Jumpman


Loderunner is out for $3.99 :)

[Uhgii]

One I'd love to see is a port of Clubhouse Games from the DS to the iPhone. I love card game compilations, and the only good ones out there are purely Solitaire. Having a mess of multiplayer card games and board games in one app would be spectacular.

Also, I've yet to come across a rummy app worth holding onto. :rolleyes:

[cheezeburger69]

Bubble Trouble would be AWESOME. :D

[jonlink]

We need Civilization type games. PERIOD. How bout the FreeCiv team ports it over :)))

I've been thinking the same thing for a while now.

[ShadowsFall]

Bubble Trouble would be AWESOME. :D

WOOT!! Bubble Trouble!!! I would like tosee a Pokemon game, a type of hame like Call of Duty: Finest Hour, or some 1'st person World War 2 game... Brothers in Arms is a 3rd person shooter. Or well..2nd. And last... A MMORPG(Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game)... not the text based... The real kind..

[ShadowsFall]

Sticking with games that have an outside chance of getting made (e.g. nothing emulated or made by Nintendo)...

* Chronotron (Flash game)
* Grim Fandango
* Lost Winds
* NiGHTS into Dreams
* Portal
* Puzzle Bobble (there are clones in the app store, but the original is the best)
* RTS like Command & Conquer
* World of Goo

A jRPG like Sega's Shining Force or Panzer Dragoon Saga would be great too :)

There's already a good RTS game called Warfare Incorporated.

[gekkota]

Cosmic Avenger.
Like Williams' Defender, but more fun.
I wish.... :(

You sir, are ultra awesome :cool:
I'd also like Left 4 Dead, Crash Bandacoot 1 and 3, Heart Of Darkness and Theme Park World (Yes I know that the first 3 would never happen, but a boy can dream right:( )

[somedude445]

one game that i think would be a perfect match is okami for the ps2, but add more paintbrush actions.

[Beezle]

I would like to see:

Warlords/Airburst type of game.
Spectromancer or Astral Masters.
Super Sprint.
Final Fantasy Tactics (or similar).
M.U.L.E.
HOMM III (ok, PocketHeroes may be coming).

Of course Warlords and M.U.L.E. would need some serious Multiplayer.

[beetle004]

U mean that game where u had to infiltrate the german lines?:eek: This game was awesome!

Games I would love to see made:
Prince of Persia
Sudden Strike Forever( One of the best rts IMO)

[aafuss]

I'd like to see a iPhone version of two of Apple's games:
Chinese Checkers
Reversi

These are for the click-wheel iPods and I wonder why Apple does not make these for the iPhone/iPod touch.

[eze323]

I would love to see steam's "Alien Shooter 1/2" and/or "Zombie Shooter" on the iphone with iDracula controls!!!!! :D:D:D

[cmfnyc]

I wish someone would jump in and add more sports titles. One in particular comes to mind. NBA Jams. I would love it period, but would be thrilled if it was done right, as in include stars and pairings from previous editions through the decades. The two-person game would be perfect for mobile because you could institute invisible controls divided into two halves: movement and actions. The actions side would be further halved into pass and shoot (or possibly pass, shoot and camera). It would really rock if whomever hired Caster dev elecorn to work his controls magic. I could see a Caster-like perspective/camera shifting where you could tap the camera area while dribbling to go from viewing the action from above to viewing it over the shoulder.

[Somerandomdude]

I personally want from companies other than Capcom (I already put a huge list of games I want from them in another thread):

- Fallout 1 and 2

- A REAL Metal Gear game. Even one of the old DOS/NES games would do, or a port of MGS Mobile.

- Some point and click games by Telltale Games. Wish we could have Sam and Max or Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People

- Call of Duty. Try porting the one on the N-gage.

- Monkey Islands 1-3. I already have all 3 on ScummVM, but it would be great if more people got a chance to play these classics. And it is possible, as ScummVM was what was used to port FOTAQ to the AppStore.

- Some more good RPG games. Seems that the Appstore is lacking. So far the only three fantastic games are Underworlds, Zenonia, and TNA, which I was also shocked to find that it was really a good RPG

- Yu-Gi-OH! wouldn't be a bad idea at all. I hate those stupid kids shows and crap, but the card game is really addicting. If you have a jailbroken iPod/iPhone like I do, just use gpSPhone and put Eternal Duelist Soul on there.

- Crush the Castle or Castle Clout

- Sonny and Sonny 2

- The Last Stand 2. Sure we have Attack from the Dead, but Last Stand was alot better.

- THPS2. I was extremely excited when I saw that video posted, but really angry when they said "It probably won't be on the AppStore". When i was younger, this was like my favorite game, and this still is one of the best skateboarding games of all time. And trust me, I've played almost all of them.

- And even just some info on Worms.

[Johno]

Most definitely Monster Hunter. If Capcom ported it I would love them so much. Monster Hunter Freedom 1&2 were amazing on the PSP I think they could do it on the Touch/iPhone.

[goldglover411]

i definetly want an nhl game like nhl 09 to come to the iphone. i would buy that in a second

[SoCal_Sponger]

Monster Hunter Freedom port from PSP
Sacred/Diablo II
Skate (EA) with Touchgrind-style controls

[Chronical]

- Valkyria Chronicles ( Strategic War RPG )
- Kingdom Hearts ( RPG )
- DJ Max ( Rhythm Game )
- Taiko no Tatsujin Portable ( Rhythm Game )
- Monster Hunter ( RPG )
- Zenonia Online MMORPG ( MMORPG )
- Brothers in Arms 2 (ego perspective shooter, like 100x longer gameplay :D )
- Wipeout ( Racing game )
- Pangya Golf ( Golf ;) )
-

[tjccooll]

Devil May Cry.................... nuff said.

[tjccooll]

- Valkyria Chronicles ( Strategic War RPG )

- Zenonia Online MMORPG ( MMORPG )
- Brothers in Arms 2 (ego perspective shooter, like 100x longer gameplay :D )

-



Out of this list DEFINITELY Kingdom Hearts! and Brothers in Arms 2 (ego perspective shooter, like 100x longer gameplay :D )

[shotom]

what about tribes 2? youre flying the whole time in that game anyway so fps controls wouldnt be too hard- accelerometer for movement and touch for aim

[qingwa]

Baldur's Gate (1 or 2)

Or any really good RPG.

I finished Zenonia and awaiting the next in-depth RPG (Underworlds is not an RPG, its a dungeon crawler).

[Shocked]

Stackers 2

[nic.]

More Resident Evil!

[PatrolSN]

i want ot see street fighter! is there any game s out there that is similar

[jmarquiso]

Descent...?

And now that someone mentioned it in the Sims 3 - Evil Genius.

[khangtoh]

i want ot see street fighter! is there any game s out there that is similar

I second that! Street fighter was my all time favorite, which is why smackBOTS has crazy combo moves.

[Artfoundry]

Street fighter would be cool, but I'm not sure that would work very well - 6 buttons and the ability to do smooth rolling on a virtual stick? I just don't see that working on a small touchscreen.

The games I'd love to see:
- Any trading card game, but preferably Magic. Maybe if Duel of the Planeswalkers does well enough on Xbox Live, Wizards will port a version of it to the iphone (one could only hope...)
- Diablo 1! I would bet this could be done, but of course Blizzard would have to ok it. From what I've heard from others, it doesn't seem likely.
- Baldur's Gate (though I'm not sure it would fit - as I remember it took up like 3-5 CDs - even compressed down for the iphone's screen size, that would probably be too big)
- One of the original two Fallouts? Probably same issue as BG.
- Marathon 1-Infinity would be a kick
- Something horror based that's better than the Silent Hill game that got ported - that just seemed like a pathetic (and overpriced) excuse for a SH title. And I don't mean a standard zombie slasher to add to the pile of zombie killer games already out there. I mean something really scary.

A highly polished fighting game (http://forum.unity3d.com/viewtopic.php?t=20568) like SF is in the works ;)


It won't be exactly like SF, though, as I want it to bring a lot of new elements to fighting genre.

Cheers

[AttackOfThePwned]

EXCITE TRUCK

I loved the hell out of that game on the Wii.

How about Excite Bike!

Would also love to see the likes of Police Quest, Kings Quest and Space Quest updated for the iDevice platform. Could be interesting trying to make that genre work with story modes and mini games thrown in.

Ahhh, late 80's early 90's brings back fond memories...

Checked out your WIP - looks like good stuff! The animation concept drawings and screenshots look very nice. I'll be interested in seeing how your control scheme works - I liked the control scheme for Funky Punch, but that was only 3 buttons and control pad, and buttons were all close to each other. Four buttons in a row could be difficult - have you gotten to the stage yet where you can try out that level of functionality?

BTW, how do you like making an iphone game in Unity? I've got the indie version of Unity and have started working on a game, but don't have the iphone add-on yet (I still need to get an Intel Mac first). I have one other friend who's been working on an iphone game with Unity, and he seems to be having some issues (though that may be more due to the fact that he's porting the game from the Mac version).

[weedeatinflyincougar]

some sort of 3D stealth game like the real mgs

a deep, long rpg

a big rts

something in the style of halo cod (fps with good controls and a long, deep, GOOD storyline)


and now for something plausible
any one of these would do:led zeppelin/jimi hendrix/queen/van halen/acdc/eric clapton/beatles (not their bad songs though, just their good songs like strawberry fields)/rolling stones/aerosmith/santana/guns n roses tap tap revenge

quite a few of the internet flash games i have played

[c0re]

Hello Artfoundry :)

Four buttons in a row could be difficult - have you gotten to the stage yet where you can try out that level of functionality?

Yes I've already checked if 4 buttons was playable, and it is. I got big 30 years-old fingers, and it still works with no confusion at all. Well, I admit I've been used to videogames controllers for 20 years, and for instance got a decent level at SF4 on XBoxLive, so my opinion about this 4 buttons easiness might be biased.

Although, as always in reflexes games, skill category is decided by the player ability to manage ingame controls. It is just a part of fighting genre :)
But I'm making big efforts to ease those controls (already rebuilt the HUD 2 times from scratch).

BTW, how do you like making an iphone game in Unity?

To be honest, Unity is vital for non-coders, and could be replaced by Xcode by full-time coders. But the software is really easy to learn, supports C# (not only, but this one is great), and do save a lot of 3D engine self coding.

Actually I'm a full-time coder with my dayjob, so it could have been done in Xcode. But where I do make a lot of profit (and I mean it), is that Unity compiles the same game code, resources, etc to several platforms.
That's it, if I want to deploy this game to other platforms, I only got to push one button instead of rewriting all the code.

Plus Unity staff is a really good mix between coolness, open mind, perfectionism, and business ambition. Really, it's a good value. :)

a soccer game kinda like PES for Wii, but with touch would be nice.

[craighinrichs]

Regarding Chronotron: FYI, I know the developer from a messageboard he frequents, and he currently has a DS version looking for a publisher. I've encouraged him to make an iPhone version as well :) You can follow the dev on Twitter if you want: http://twitter.com/Chronotron
I am developing Chronotron for iOS with the original developer of the game. It's coming along great and it's going to have some new things. It's fitting really nice on the small iPhone screen using some panning and zoom. We haven't announced anything with details just this initial announcement.

[aconfusedkender]

I want to see a dungeon crawler like the one in lufia 2...where you started as lvl.1 at lvl.1 and grinded your way throught the dungeon and when you leave you can only take the epic weapons to/from the dungeon for the next time. I spent countless countless hours on that game for snes...thats what i would like. No iap buying super weapons or whatever just straight grinding to get the best stuff...although with the short attention span of this new generational society im not sure if it would do any good or not.

Just my opinions,
aconfusedkender

[Exact-Psience]

One thing missing that i thought would probably be cool is a n RPG that features beautiful, Chaos Rings-like visuals during adventuring and dungeon crawling mode, with random encounters in which battles are played Infinity Blade-like.
