Games you wish they would bring to your favorite platform

Honestly I would like to see PlayStation Home return. Sony killed it and now that the Metaverse is a thing, you'd think they'd resurrect it. I lost so much $$$ in purchased content the day my PS3 decided the app could no longer connect. Had to Google to find out they axed the service.

For the uninitiated, PlayStation Home was a social platform that used a 3-D environment similar to the Metaverse/Second Life in that it had personal spaces, messaging, interactive VRChat-style avatars, games, specific areas within games that acted like personal spaces, and more. Given that VR is a thing now, you'd expect they'd bring it back, or have kept it going. It was nice in its time.

This service/game existed in 2006 on the Sony PlayStation 3. and never got a PlayStation 4 (or 5/VR) port. Missed opportunity, Sony.

I got Pokemon Scarlet on my Nintendo Switch. Has Pokemon even changed enough to warrant re-releasing older colour-coded ports of it? I never really understood what the colour signified, although Blue and Red were exclusively Game Boy games. Scarlet plays a lot like Moon did on my 3DS, same 'rotam phone' and all. Different characters and environ, but same game otherwise. I was amazed how little the turn-based battles had changed.

But then I'm still trying to get used to there now being more than 150 Pokemon.
