I vote for the those below.
However I would rather have a new Game in the series instead of a port/remake.

1️⃣Custom Robo
2️⃣Boktai/Lunar Knights
3️⃣True Crime: Streets Of Somewhere Else

Would also love a 3rd OBSCURE. Or an enhanced port of 1+2 at least.

Honestly, are there any "dead" game franchises that SHOULDN'T be brought back?

Too many to count, although my top five would be...

Ridge Racer (RR8 was supposed to be Switch exclusive but was cancelled.)
Twisted Metal (I have lots of nostalgia for 1, 2, and Heads Up.)
Legacy of Kain (I love me my vampire games, and this one was great.)
Max Payne (Unfortunately Rockstar is too busy with GTA V, GTA VI, RDR 2 these days.)
Chrono Trigger / Chrono Cross (Remember when S-E filed the trademark for Chrono Break? I do.)

Switch Physical Collection - 1,529 games (as of November 20th, 2025)
Switch 2 Physical Collection - 3 games (as of November 23rd, 2025)

Chibi-Robo, the series never got a chance to fulfil its potential. The third game in the series (only released in Japan) was the only to truly follow up and develop the themes and ideas from the original but I've never had the chance to play it and, also, it was stuck on the DS and subject to its limited hardware whereas the original was on the Gamecube. There's so much more they could do with it but Nintendo's mishandling of the series goes beyond basic incompetency you'd almost swear they had it out for the little fella.

I think a HD port would be enough to reignite interest but it just isn't going to happen.

I forgot about Sacred. 1 and 2 were phenomenal games! 3 was a total disaster. I hope they remake or enhance 1 and 2 and put them on current consoles.

Star Wars Rogue Squadron.
Also vote for Eternal Darkness and Golden Sun.
And Star Fox too, tho' I'm not sure if it actually counts as 'dead'?
