    I think it's important to note Reiko Kodama the character designer for Phantasy Star I&II,director of Phantasy Star IV& Magic Knight Rayearth and, producer of Skies of Arcadia and all of the 7th Dragon games passed away back in 2022. She was only 58.

      The problem is if Sega CS2 doing now Sakura Wars this automatically = no Valkyria Chronicles. If Sega CS2 doing now Valkyria Chronicles = no Sakura Wars. If Sega CS2 doing now Skies of Arcadia remake = no Valkyria Chronicles and Sakura Wars. Yes they always can outsource Valkyria Chronicles to coop developer (Mediavision), like they did with Shining Resonanse Refrain but that automatically mean lower budget game.

    Skies of Arcadia is definitely at the top of my Sega "I want this remastered list." Its probably my favorite JRPG I have never owned because it was never released on a platform I own. After that would be all the pre-PS4 Sakura Taisen games then Shining Force III followed by Shining Force CD. Seventh Dragon would be fun. I would love if the pre Shin Megami Tensei games, and the first two Shin Megami tensei games got remastered. And Growlanser remasters would be awesome. I have all the ones I know of released in the US but would love to get the others. Segaga sounds fun.
    I would love if they brought back the turn based Phantasy Star games and made Infinite Space 2

    I think it's unlikely Sega would bring any of these back, due to costs of translation (and likely bringing systems up to speed with modern gaming senseabilities) alongside a belief that they won't find a market.

    I absolutely adore Shining Force 3. I finally played Scenario 2 and 3 last year after trying and failing to get them to work multiple times over the years on cheap laptops (I even had an aborted attempt with a paper print out of the translation!). The final act was a bit disappointing for me but I'd had 25 years to hype it up in my mind and it was probably never going to be able to live up to those expectations. I think it just falls short of being a masterpiece but it's absolutely something more people should have the opportunity to play. It's a shame how few MD/Genesis era Shining Force fans have even played it, let alone the general JRPG player.

      And they fixed that in remake. Tengai Makyou Ziria Remake on X360 have visable party like in newer Dragon Quest games, but this game as i said flopped in Japan (jrpg only in Japan, only on X360 WTF ???). The problem with Tengai Makyou is the same like with Sakura Wars series. Both games were coodeveloped by Red Company, and had Ouji Hiroi as a director. It's very hard to make new ,,good'' game from those both franchises, without Ouji Hiroi and Red Company. Hiroi is now 69 years old (and not in a good health condition), and Red Company do not exist now. They bancrupted along with Hudsonsoft, but Hudsonsoft had this ,,luck'' where was bought by Konami in 2012, Red Company had ,,unluck'' and was bought by Pachinko Company (Oizumi), along with their franchises. In 2016 Sega bought back copyrights for Sakura Wars from Oizumi, but Konami don't did that with Tengai Makyou, which means this series is dead, maybe aside of Pachinko in Japan.@@LynxxLancer
