Topic: It's Time for Golden Sun on Nintendo Switch

Agreed. Even if Nintendo added GBA games to NSO we probably wouldn't see 1 & 2 added to NSO until years later. Still, I feel as though that possibility is much more likely than Nintendo allowing Camelot to develop a new entry or even a compilation pack.

Personally I'd love a remaster which, while retaining the original sprite-work, cleans things up for a HD experience (e.g. 16:9 resolution) and adds a few QOL features. I think that would be relatively low-effort while making a bigger deal of the games than ROM-dumping on NSO.

I've wanted GS4 ever since I finished dark dawn
this is not how the series should end

@Felix69 agreed

I never liked Golden Sun. I could NOT get into it, at all. No idea why, I do love most RPGs, but this one... Maybe it was the medium, I wasn't a huge fan of the GBA either.

@Daniel36 Funny. Its my fav rpg of that timeframe.

@Majora101 I completely agree and would love to see something like these ideas happen.

But like you said, it's been a decade. It just doesn't seem likely anymore.

@Felix69 Yeahh, i wanna kick Alex's ass

@komodo182 Honestly, I had to look up a list of RPGs released in 2000/2001 to see what else was from that era, and I thought all of those were crap. Maybe it was me, I was around 19/20 at the time, so I guess I just wasn't interested in RPGs at that moment.

@Daniel36 That's when I started getting really into rpgs.

@komodo182 Well, there you have it.

One of my earlier RPGs is Breath of Fire, and I have very, VERY fond memories of it, and am even enjoying it right now on the Switch, but by all accounts it's not a very good game.

Not that I am saying Golden Sun is a bad game, but I just wasn't as impressionable as I was in '93.

I still remember drawing concept art for Breath of Fire 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 in class. I really liked that game, haha.

@Daniel36 I did enjoy Breath of FIre on the snes and frankly most turn based rpgs on the snes.

I had the opportunity recently to play Breath Of Fire on the SNES Online service, and it does evoke many RPG elements that Golden Sun later perfected (in my opinion), particularly in its music and level designs. Not a bad game!

I couldn't agree more! I loved the originals on GBA (could never get into the DS entry) and would love to see Camelot revisit this series.

I want either a remake of 1 and 2 or a 4th entry

@Felix69 i want both

@komodo182 well that's not going to happen
either one or the other but not both

@Felix69 where's your wishful thinking

@Felix69 Agreed, a 2.5HD remake of the first two games on one cartridge, a la Octopath Traveler or a new entry would be perfect.

kingdom hearts 1 and 2 got an HD remake. why can't GS 1 and 2?
