Metroid Primer Trilogy has better controls and FE Gaiden was not released in the west.

I'll give you those two. Honestly those were there just for filler.

getting more money from nostalgifags and people who "omg i love this videogame im an old gamer i know a lot about videogames because i played a lot this videogame witouth a good graphics but still was the best videogame for me, a person elevated from the entire mass who likes to play videogames".

even a single level more would have been appreciated, but still "minimum effort maximum profit".

Very true and sad really. Let's not even forget that some of these remasters are worse than the original (i.e. CoD 4 Remastered)

OP asks "what's the point in buying these remasters?" not "what's the point in making and selling these remasters"
>>
The only real excuse was that most of the remasters were for consoles that didnt have backwards compatibility or had them available as classic titles on digital distribution.
>>
>>388874747
You're right.
>>
>>388873912
I'll defend the Bioshock remaster, only because you got it for free on Steam if you owned the originals.
>>
Oh yeah, I forgot about that...
>>
bioshock remaster is a piece of shit, buggy as fuck
>>
>>388875247>>388875245
Never played the remaster (because there was no reason to) but I did hear it was buggy.
>>
>>388875247
Weird you mention Bioshock, I'm playing Infinite right now and I'm stuck on this puzzle with bells. Anyone offer some help?
>>
>>388875403
Wait a minute, that card........
>>
>>388875403
You mean the intro?

If you do then go fuck yourself.

>COD
Huge game that they knew was profitable.
Halo
>Has all games in 1 package (except reach)
Crash
>New Generation for a forgotten series
>Bioshock
2K Marin and Irrantional no longer exist so it's a quick money source for 2K
>Fire Emblem
As Anon said above orignal never came west
>Metroid
All games on in 1 package and better controls as Anon said above.

Remasters and remakes are necessarily a bad things as they are usually done by a different company so the original devs can get on with new game/sequel.
>>
>>388875862
My point is that these are games that, odds are, I already own and have played to death. Graphical adjustments and shit like that are no reason to rebuy a game
>>
>>388873912
i bought the master chief collection because i was too poor to afford consoles when the og xbox and ps2 were around.
played 1-4 + odst in coop with a friend. well worth the money.
>>
updated graphics like crash remastered
also some games like peace walker hd edition allows you to play the game on big screen with better controls and stable framerate
games that were released last gen shouldn't need a remastered treatment desu (cod4, bioshock, batman arkham)
>>
>>388875862
Control adjustments and localization are though
>>
>>388876183
If you like a series enough you would want to support the series and you would take enjoyment noticing the new improvments and differences.

The main reason for remasters is to get them on a newer consoles to increase the library and maximise profit from new buyers.
