    Prince of Persia is a great example! Did Lemmings ever get a reboot? 😄

    I kind of want to see what modern game developers can do with old C64 games like Parallax or Head Over Heels, or Amiga ones like Cannon Fodder or Sensible Soccer, but time has taught me 2 things:

    1. Be very careful what you wish for. You may get it in the worst way possible.
    2. Nostalgia is sometimes best left in the past.

    I do like that GOG, etc, do their game preservation thing. Seeing games like Hexen, Rise of the Triad and Wing Commander running on modern CPUs is kinda fun, but often confirms point 2 above.
