Earthbound (Beginnings) and Banjo-Kazooie
Solar Eclipse/Total Eclipse (Sega Saturn/Playstation)
Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, Super Mario 64 DS, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Pokémon HeartGold & SoulSilver and Star Fox 64 DS
Kirby Superstars Ultra, Super Mario 64 DS, Rayman Redemption (Fan-remake), Kirby Return to Dreamland Deluxe, Sonic Triple Trouble 16 bits (Fan-remake) and Project 06 (Fan-remake).
@@noemisango8478 I'm HUGE Sonic Fan but never heared of Sonic Rriple Trouble, is it a Good Game and which Platforms is it on? By the way I have SONIC 06 Fan-made Project on Pc but it dosen't work even before Starting a Game. 😂
Resident Evil 1 Remake for the GameCube is to this day one of the greatest games of all time!
Indeed. I was actually playing it the other day on my PS4 & it's awesome!
😂
Oh it is i got it on gamecube wil xboxone i play the gamecube version on my wil as i gave my sister my gamecube
For sure.
Like RE 4 + RE 2
Best of Best
But RE 1 still very good
Surprised that neither Pokémon gen 2 remakes for the Ds or Gen 3 remake for the 3ds were added.
I believe each deserved a honorable mention at least
Yeah, the former especially! There's a reason why HGSS are still regarding the best installments in the franchise to date!
3DS got many Masterpiece Great REMAKE ❤
Pokémon Heartgold and Soulsilver was My First Pokémon Games ever, LOVE those AMAZING Remakse so agree YOU! ❤
@@KaliU-ix2kf OMEGA RUBY/ ALPHA SAPPHIRE! 🌊🌋
Gen 2 is based but the Gen 3 remakes were garbage
Kirby Superstar Ultra has a special place in my heart.
Same
Crash Insane trilogy along with CTR is just beautiful, a wonderful remake. I love it.
Trials of Mana
Once was locked in Japan but now realeased worldwide cause of Collection of Mana. Later, it got a remake and it was very good. Fun gameplay, awesome music, fun characters, good replay value and a good story too. Sure it has some flaws like the English voice acting is lol bad and funny but it did very well compared to Secret of Mana Remake. By the way my favorite character in Trials of Mana are Kevin and Charlotte, love those two sweethearts.
The visions of mana announcement had me jumping back into Trials for another play through. I plan to pick up Secret of Mana on PC during the steam sale
@@mccuish I would avoid the secret of mana Remake cause it's not that good I heard. I highly recommend the original SNES version if your PC can do emulator
Finally, someone shows respect for Star Fox 64 3D!
StarFox 64 3DS ❤❤❤
I m so love 💗
I really wish I got Tomb Raider: Anniversary back in the day. That game looks like a night and day improvement over the original. Now if only we can get Tomb Raider II, III, and IV remade in that game’s style.
I know asypr and crystal dynamic are doing tomb raider 1 to 3 remastered for modern consoles like ps4, ps5, xbox and nintendo switch it comes out in feb 2024 dunno if they gonna use the anniversary engine but they probly are
@@clintbrew I saw the trailer for that. It doesn’t look like it’ll use the Anniversary engine. It looks a lot like what you get if devs did the barest minimum to remaster the games for modern consoles. Lara’s mouth doesn’t even move when she speaks.
@@FastTquickthat’s the only trailer for the collection it could be possible that they either update it in a day one patch or in the future to where Lara’s mouth has animations for when she’s talking for in game cutscenes.
After so many re-releases of Super Mario 64, we really need a remake of the remake, Super Mario 64 DS. All that's needed is analog control and higher resolution.
Earthbound Beginnings REALLY needs a remake with the rolling HP bar from it sequels and a better difficulty curve. It has not aged well.
Thank god I beat Zelda OOT back in 2020 on my 3ds. It became my favorite video game of all time.
Super 👍 cool Zelda 3DS ❤
Me too GLAD I buy it for 3DS before WII U and 3DS Eshops were closed sadly. 😢
All of these are great picks. But how did resident evil 2 or 4 not make the list?
XD 😂
Ikr 🙄😒🤔
Resident Evil Remake should be on the top of this list. Easily the best RE game still to this day and a perfect example on how you should remake a game.
Pokemon Gen 1 and 2 remakes are super good, too. Can't believe HeartGold/SoulSilver didn't make it to the list and no one mentions these games in the comments.
The remake announcement for Mario RPG had me jumping back into the original for another play through.
I would drop the money for DK 64 to get a remaster
That have to happen, even for NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE! 🦍
The 3DS remake of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga was amazing.
3DS got lots great remake
Contra
Metroid 3ds
Mario
Zelda 3D remake
Masterpiece ⭐⭐⭐
3ds great world
Good add with Tomb Raider: Anniversary. That trilogy was VERY good at the time (Anniversary, Legend, Underworld), similar to the renaissance Lara got with the newest trilogy of games this past gen.
At the time? Those are still my favorite trio of TR games (and I love the originals and the reboot trilogy).
@@iamskyfall Have you seen the original trilogy remake that's supposed to come out?
@@michaelb2westgaedu I have and it looks great.
Now we need a tony hawks underground 1 and 2 remake
Resident Evil Remake. A faithful remake of the original that didn't cut enemies or locations and didn't change lore.
I like that they added lisa trever to the remake
@JayJay-nr2gk agreed. She added to unexplained lore and was a great addition.
Yup
Yes
RE 3. Cut too many things
Make re3 sxck
Glad you mentioned starfox and oot. Grew up playing the originals and loved the remakes. I would also add heartgold/soulsilver to the list
Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon will always have a special place in my heart ❤️
Should've added MediEvil to this list.
It’s great and you can unlock the original version
Where is resident evil 2 ?????
Imo the best remake ever made especially over star fox and ever re4 which i think the og was way better but the remake is still good
The picks on this list are pretty good, but I'd also like to mention some more:
- Super Mario Brothers 3 remake on the SNES
Took an legendary game and elevated it even further
Resident Evil 1 Remake on Gamecube
- WOW. Just 1 generational difference was enough to get a timeless look to one ot the grandfathers of the survival horror genre
- Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled
- One of the best cart racing games ever made not only gets a faithful remake of its campaign, cast, and tracks it ALSO becomes a love letter to the rest of the Crash cart racing games and the franchise as a whole. Beenox went above and beyond when all we were asking for was a simple remake. The content on offer here is nuts.
- Trials of Mana
Going from being a Japanese only release for 25 years before not only getting localized on the Switch but a full blown remake? And the game still holds up to this day, despite hewing very close to the original's contents.
- Live-A-Live Remake
This shit was Japan-only but considered an unappreciated gem for decades before Square-Enix went insane and remade the hell out of it. Again, it is very faithful to the original game showing that we had an all-time classic just... sitting there for decades
- Star Ocean 2: The Second Story R
This one is very recent but WOW. Hearing diehards go through the game with a fine-tooth comb and find that the dev team has seemingly, and consciously touched and improved every aspect of a lgendary game is something else. The team behind the remake showed they didn't just respect SO2, but absolutely love it with really thoughtful QoL improvements, judicious changes here and there all while retaining the game as a whole. Sometimes you can feel the labor of love behind a project.
I could go on and on, but damn at this point the industry has no excuse to churn out bad remakes. We have plenty of examples to live up to as is.
And for those who want remakes to stop? It's not going to happen. They existed before you fell out of your mother, and they'll continue long after you're dust. Media deserves to be preserved, updated, and made available to future generations.
RE 2 + RE 4
Best of Best
But RE 1 really good ❤
The Crash Team Racing remake was really good.
Surprised links awakening on the switch wasn’t even an honorable mention, that game looks (not like real life) but it looks Alive and real. Game was amazing, same with RE 2 and RE1 remakes. Best games in the ps4
I own the Spyro remake which has an absolutely legendary soundtrack, and you just dishonored it by calling Stewart Copeland “Steve”.
Good thing I have the physical versions OOT and MM 3D
Capcom is just killing it with the RE Remakes.
For someone who has already played all the listed games in this video, Final Fantasy VII: Remake is absolutely the one that blew me away! This is how remakes should be done being approachable to newcomers and also giving something new to the old fans!
Watchmojo talking about Super Mario RPG being stuck on SNES like it wasn't available through Wii and Wii U from 2008 all the way up until the Wii U eShop was shut down.
good job about The BEST Remake Of Retro Games from Top 10
I'm kind of shocked (no pun intended) that the System Shock remake or Black Mesa (remake of Half-Life) isn't on this list.
Yeah, they were both pretty awesome.
Half life :AlyX
Best of Best
True masterpiece
Best VR. Magic ❤❤❤
Still 😂no 3 ???
"Now where's our Spyro 4?"
We do not talk about the sacrilege that was "Enter the Dragonfly".
Neat video!
Not the most retro one, i understand (a 2008 release on the PS2) but Yakuza Kiwami 2, the leap from PS2 was incredible, i want to play the PS2 version but i bet prices are ridiculous these days :)
Yakuza 1+2
True masterpiece
Best of series
Can y'all do the top 20 ports that are actually good?
Wow just got a ps5 today and I purchased 1 game FF7 Remake. And Boom WatchMojo with the excellent list same day!
They should have given the number 1 spot to the resident evil remakes
Dead Space (2023) anyone!?
Wish they remake Matt Hoffman pro bmx too
I didn't experience Final Fantasy VII Remake 4.10.2020 in 2020 until 2023. Except "Better Late Than Never"
Im surprised you didn't included the Demon Souls remake, or the anniversary editions of Halo 1 and 2, or the Dead Space remake, or the Resident Evil remakes, seriously, you need to make another list
We need a modern-gen remake of the classic "Joust", complete with upgradable lances and ostriches.
I think Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia should be on this list. Its a remake of a classic Japanese exclusive Fanicom game on the 3DS.
Can't believe you guys didn't mention the Star Ocean 2 Remake that dropped this year, it was a damn near perfect upgrade to an amazing game
I don't know if LoZ Windwaker counts as retro, but the hd version is definitely one of my top ten
That was more of a remaster than a full-on remake, though. Nevertheless, I agree it was a really good one.
I dunno but I wish we had enough love and pull for a Parasite Eve remake. Such a solid underrated game!
One of the first remakes I think I’ve ever seen is the one for resident evil on the GameCube and that is still one of the best ones I’ve ever ever played. But then resident evil four just got a remake itself, and it’s one of the best of its kind. I would say Samus Returns, Mario RPG, Final Fantasy seven, resident evil, resident evil four fire emblem shadow dragon are my favorites.
I believe that the remakes of Secret of Mana & Trials of Mana (especially the second!!!) should also be on the list. The original games might be ahead of their time, but their controls look kind of tough by today's standards (especially in the ios android port!!!), and I believe that the remakes are WAY more accesible to those not familliar with the franchise!
now we wait for Chrono Trigger to make it to the top of the list
I think the links awakening remake deserves a place on the list. The art style is great!
Not exactly a remake, but fans have been porting jak 1and 2 to PC and it runs beautifully and looks amazing. It's almost as much improvement as you'd expect from a remake. Still some bugs but I have no doubt that when this project is done, we'll have some amazing new jak experiences implemented by modders.
We need a Matt Hoffman 1 + 2
Black Mesa, the Half-Life remake, has got to be one of the most ambitious community-made remakes of them all. It brought new life into a game that defined the FPS genre. Am rather shocked that didn't make the list.
So excited for Crash to come to Game Pass
I was surprised that FF7 remake was so high because it totally blew my mind
Live A Live Remake
Good remake!
I can’t wait until FF7 Rebirth!!
same here
Zelda Link’s Awakening! Absolutely beautiful brilliant reimagined game
Great🍾 💖😗
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA OCARINA OF TIME, METROID SAMUS RETURN, CRASH N SANE TRILOGY, SPYRO RAGNED TRILOGY, FINAL FANTASY VII, RESIDENT EVIL 4 and SUPER MARIO RPG are The BEST Remakes in History of a VideoGames defienitily THE LEGEND OF ZELDA OCARINA OF TIME on NINTENDO 3DS, DUCKTALES REMASTERED on PLAYSTATION 3 (but why it is on this List, do REMASTERED and REMAKE really mean a same Thing, I tought those are diffrents) CRASH BANDICOOT N SANE TRILOGY on PLAYSTATION 4 and SPYRO RAGNED TRILOGY on NINTENDO SWITCH what I have and have been played but would LOVE to buy and play FINAL FANTASY VII, RESIDENT EVIL 4 and SUPER MARIO RPG Remakes too. That Video was really GOOD THANK YOU MOJOPLAYS and a happy HOLIDAYS Everyone! ❤❤
Where's Link's Awakening?
Star Fox 64 3D didn't have online multi-player, although it should've
I’m still waiting for a Banjo Kazooie remake. I don’t even care who makes it at this point as long as it’s done right. But if the remakes I’ve played, my favorites are Pokémon Omega Ruby, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, and Ocarina of Time 3D
I've been saying this since forever, but BANDAI NAMCO is sitting on some pretty good games. I wish they would remaster/remake as a trilogy like Crash Bandicoot did, of Ace Combat 4, 5, & Zero! People would pay for those, especially 4 & 5.
I cannot wait for gexs, still have my old 64 cartridge, and a remake of star fox 64.. switch, PS5 or even Mobile, bring it on!
NS 2🎉
I never thought I'd be alive to see a remake of Gex
Some nice surprise entrants in here which I appreciate but no mention of RE remakes?😢
My favorite is Crash Bandicoot and Sypro remake.
0:28 10. Metroid: Samus Returns (2017)
1:18 9. Ducktales: Remastered (2013)
2:14 8. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 (2020)
3:10 7. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (2011)
4:02 6. Final Fantasy VII Remake (2020)

5:42 4. Tomb Raider: Anniversary (2007)

7:34 2. Spyro Reignited Trilogy (2018)
8:18 1. Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy (2017)
Great list ❤
3DS ❤
They should do a remake of Super Mario 64. 6:45
there was a remake of Super Mario 64 it was released on the DS
Maybe NS 2
@@ahmedmaklad6527 I don’t own a ds
@@jakethenecromorph you could get a DS from second hand market or emulate it
We're literally 2 months out from Star Ocean: The Second Story R. Why wasn't it here?
no resident evil 2 or 4? no ctr nitro fueled? no superstar saga? no majoras mask? still a good list but i would have added these too
also no zelda links awakening!?
I have RESIDENT EVIL 2 on PLAYSTATION 1, is it a Good Game The Original One? 😮
Link's Awakening HD, Fire Emblem New Mystery of the Emblem: The Heroes of Light and Shadow, Fire Emblem: Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, Pokemon Heart Gold & Soul Silver, Pokemon Firered & Leafgreen.
Super Mario All Stars
Resident Evil 1
Metroid: Zero Mission
Everyone who thinks we should get a remake of Kid Icarus Uprising for the Nintendo Switch, leave a 👍.
I'm still sore we never got DuckTales 2 Remastered, especially since Alan Young died.
What about any of the resident evil games
Pokémon Heart Gold / Soul Silver should’ve been the clear number 1.
I am missing the Resident Evil 2 Remake.
How... just how aren't there ANY of the Resident Evil remakes on this list...? Not even an honorable mention? No Twin Snakes? No Demon's Souls?
Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers
Only one of these could have made the cut
8:01 Yeah, his name is STEWART Copeland and he’s the drummer from The Police (One of the greatest drummers of all time).
How tf do ya’ll butcher that???
Sometimes they make these type of mistakes on purpose so people comment and engage with the video.
@@tomason1986 I absolutely don't think so.
Tony Hawks remake plays exactly like the original which is why it’s great. If you think it hasn’t aged great then you must like not the remake either
While Samus Returns is an nice remake and an solid way to play an version of Metroid 2, I think Zero Mission does an Metroid remake far better than Samus Returns because aside of just being an remake of Metroid 1, it felt brand new and has better replay value. And if we're gonna count mods, than AM2R would also top that and the best version of Metroid 2.
Metroid 2 didn't need a parry mechanic. It needed a map.
Resident Evil 4 Remake
Great 💯 Remake ❤
Bionic Commando:Rearmed 1
What kind of a list is this?? Ducktales and Tomb Raider over Metroid Prime Remastered, Dead Space Remake, System Shock Remake, Pokemon HGSS, Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, Shadow of the Colossus, Black Mesa???
How duck tales remastered to be became a remake...
The GameCube remake of Metal Gear Solid.
Which eras are considered retro games?
Psone/n64 era and before them.

True gamer ❤
@@KaliU-ix2kfWow! Thanks for that! And, yep. These are all the Best Epic Video Remake Retro Games I've ever played throughout the years!
Star Ocean Second Story R
What if Yoshi's Island gets a remake?
It's a perfect game , still looks better than most of the games of today's generation
Metroid Prime remake is absolutely amazing
that was a remaster not a remake
Metroid 3DS. Best
I feel enough was done to it that the argument for it to be a remake can be made
As a fan of the original Spyro and Crash games, I was actually disappointed with the remakes. I didn't appreciate the excessive cartoony action, drastically different voice acting, and in the formers case, needless redesigning of literally everything. These games did not feel nostalgic for me
