I would think one game that should be remade is Herzog Zwei, best RTS game ever made for the Genesis/Mega Drive

The Jaguar also has a 68k CPU BTW

PowerMac G4 MDD 1.5ghz 1.25GB 10.5.8 & MOS 2.7
Mac Mini C2D 10.6.8 2GHz 3GB 250GB HDD
MacBook Retina 16GB 256GB SSD 10.8
iPad 2

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

OS X trumps Windows on every level.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

So how hard would it be to remake a simple RTS like Herzog Zwei? I tried years ago in Game Maker, but couldn't find rips of the sprites and couldn't get the AI to work correctly, it would either ignore me or pursue me relentlessly, ignoring its bases. Now I've been thinking about getting back into this, I think If I could develop a remake in AmigaE or C or something on both a real Amiga and Amithlon, then I could finally break some ground. It could probably run on as low end as a 500, considering the Genesis's modest specs.

One project that is developing on the Genesis is Hypertension TDGMods, using Doom on the 32x and sega CD system, but I have no idea if they're following through.
