A lot of classic characters died during the 32-bit age, or are simply kicking around doing stuff all. People want them to come back, but just didn't seem to work in 3D. Now with todays advancements, are there any characters you could see making a comeback?
Me, I'd love to see a new EarthWorm Jim game. The N64 game looked crap and so very generic mission wise.
Earthworm Jim would work fantastically as a game very similar to Ratchet & Clank. You've got the guns [normal blaster, 'home'ing missile], the weapon selection would work perfectly for the character, slingshot = snot from EWJ2, Even those Peter Puppy levels could be done fairly well. He'd be able to fly from planet to planet on that scooter thing of his, taking of Psycrow, Pr. Monkey for a Head, and Queen Slug-for-a-butt.
I wouldn't mind seeing Bubsy coming back either. 3D was such a horrible game, and his attitude in general was pretty 'lame', but he could easily be revitalized in a game similar to the Sonic Adventure games, even having those caves so you could backtrack a lot easier, and have those special stages from Bubsy 1 where you float down the wodden waterways.
Rocket Knight'd be great too, but I can't really think of any games which would play similarly to him now. Maybe like R&C2 with the boost boots and no weapon changes?
