I love Mario games but I always wonder why some people want remakes. Mario is not like Zelda or Metroid, it's not even like Pokemon. I don't play the game for the specific experience of that particular Mario game. I play it so I can play through a bunch of levels and get to the end. So I never really understand what the point of remaking a Mario game unless it's just a bit of a technical demo. I'd much rather they'd put their efforts into remaking something else or delivering a new Mario game.
Enough with remakes. I'd rather just have natively rendered emulations of the originals in 1080p. DS games look particularly awful on the big screen, though Mario Kart DS would have looked spectacular if Nintendo could just be bothered to allow 1080p rendering as many (illicit) emulators are capable of doing. Hell, they could include the original resolution as well to appease any purists. It's simply a complete waste of time when we already have more than enough remakes on Wii U on top of VC releases.

@sillygostly: You know what I'd love,if they would make NES VC games look like how Mario 1 + 3 look in Super Mario Maker.Widescreen,resolution bump to brighten them up and no flicker.Mario 3 at the very least deserves it.
The excuse of they release them in their original format as they want the experience to be "just as we remember",50 HZ an all just doesn't cut in 2015.
If a remake fixed the camera system, and some of the other, how can I put this lightly, frustrating elements of that game, I would be all for it. Super Mario Sunshine has a lot of great levels locked behind a terrible camera. This is one of the few Nintendo games that could REALLY benefit from a remake actually, I'm not sure why people are so against this.
The NX is going to be delayed to Holiday 2017 you heard it here first, also It should be pretty obvious what my favorite game of all time is cough Skyward Sword cough
This one makes sense actually as it can't be played on current systems. A VC release would also be fine, but this is a GC game so that ain't gonna happen.

I would actually welcome that. It wouldn't require a great deal of effort considering the simplicity of the original game's design.

Sunshine definitely needs a remake to fix some of the problems with progression and content, but I think we should wait until the NX for a remake.
Yeah, I agree with this. Make it so the remake is on a console where the graphics can be made to look significantly better than the originals, not just one generation or so better.
Probably not. I could name off a list of GCN games I think would matter the most, but with remakes, VC, and consumer interest, I don't think they really care. Xbox 360 had some Xbox games on the Xbox Live Marketplace, but it ultimately didn't go well. They think people should be more interested in the new games, and rightfully so; not to say that there is absolutely no interest in GCN games on VC, but it's going to be a lower priority over the new stuff, regardless.
There's also Wii versions of games, like RE4, so they would release those instead, otherwise the other games are obscure or outdated by industry standards(otherwise why wouldn't they release them). This isn't Wii anymore, where GCN games are actually still around. That's why 3DS VC already stopped supporting GameBoy games.
List of games I think matter most for GCN VC:
Super Mario Sunshine
Luigi's Mansion
Fire Emblem Radiance
Pokemon Coliseum
Pokemon XD
Odama w/ GP mic support
Sonic Adventure: DC
Sonic Adventure 2
Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg
MGS: The Twin Snakes
Call of Duty series
Spyro series
etc.
Games that they can't remake or shouldn't remake, go in the VC, and I wouldn't say Super Mario Sunshine needs a remake, unless you want to pay $50 for it, instead of $15-20 for the original version. Also, the GCN adapter should be compaitble if/when GCN support ever happens, which they said was in consideration before Wii U even came out.

Sunshine is definitely the main remaining Nintendo game that needs a remake or remaster. Partly because it would really benefit from a new coat of paint. And partly because it's one of the only great Nintendo games that you can't play on any modern console.
No blue coins, faster boats in Delfino Plaza, get rid of poison river and pachinko levels, aiming reticle for F.L.U.D.D., 1080p 60fps, some tweaks here and there and we're good.
3+ full new levels, a less restrictive final boss requirement (maybe something like 60 Shines + Beat at least 1 Episode 7), and a better 100% reward (at the very least a Grandmaster Galaxy/World 8-Crown/Champion Road type of final challenge). Also I don't think they should get rid of the poison river and pachinko levels because we need a good challenge. Just make them less annoying/unpolished.
