Steam seems pretty nice about giving free upgraded versions to people. Pretty sure Oddworld Stranger's Wrath had the same kinda deal. It's a shame really that PSN or Xbox Live etc can't do a similar thing (obviously it would have to look when the game was brought so you couldn't just borrow the disc etc). I know with Injustice: God's Amongst Us you got some money off or something if you owned the PS3 version.
I'd love to see Super Metroid redone. Hell, any new 2D Metroid would be nice but it would be nice to see what Nintendo can do with some 'gritty' 2D graphics. I mean Kirby's Epic Yarn and Wario Land Shake-Dimension look gorgeous, but I'd love to see some darker work by Good-Feel. Or even polygons - hell, worked for Shadow of the Beast.
Another remake I really enjoyed (but seems to split the fan base) is Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes. Like, I get the criticism of 'Shakespear-ing' it up but honestly, the PS1 game has aged to such a point that unless you've already played it, it's pretty much impossible to play. I mean Twin Snakes took some time to get used to.
While I'm on about Metal Gear Solid, MGS3: Subsistence is pretty much the most required 'remaster' probably ever made. Like, it's such the definitive version that you forget the original had a fixed camera (which was an utter ball ache). It also brought Metal Gear 2 outside of Japan for the first time ever, and I really really enjoyed that game.
