-My favourite game due to a big chunk of nostalgia, and the fact that it's an innovative and unique puzzle-platformer with a friendly atmosphere and absolutely fantastic music.
What makes me want a remake/sequel of it even more is the fact that the credits stated "Look out for Puggsy Part II coming soon!" To this day I'm still hoping Traveller's Tales will perhaps look back and think "maybe we should actually make that..."
Ironically, a remake would probably do the franchise justice granted that they actually fix the problems that plagued the original.
And maybe revive a dead dog with new tricks.

A game on the Famicom that was developed by a team that had previously worked for Capcom. It takes place in a dream world where the player makes heroes based on a collection of heads, bodies and weapons that can be upgraded with powerups in game. It was one of the first games with character customization, and was ALMOST remade for the PC Engine CD, but it was scrapped and the rather complete prototype has never been leaked. Another one I'm trying to unofficially sequelize, again just with a lot of written notes and no real programming yet. =X
Battletoads
One of the most frustratingly hard NES games. For some reason my parents bought this for my brother and I, and although we never, EVER came close to beating it, we enjoyed it very much. Battletoads just needs some more love.
Yes, yes, yes, 1000 times yes.
I would throw my money at my screen to make these two games get remade.

Nazo no Murasame Jō (The Mystery of Murasame Castle) Famicom
This rather lesser known Nintendo title was released on the Famicom Disk system a long time ago. It was basically the more action based version of The Legend of Zelda that actually had really fun game play that could be quite challenging at times. You control Takamaru, a samurai apprentice who investigates the strange happenings at Murasame castle and gets ambushed by an onslaught of Ninjas. The game itself never saw a release outside of Japan and it only got a few ports to other systems. However, it's continually referenced throughout many of Nntendo's games and even the main character made a cameo appearance in a third party game and it had a small mini game in Nintendo Land. It makes me ponder on how much more realistic a remake or even a port to the US or UK seems more and more likely, let alone a reboot.
