Games that are enjoyed best in top down/sidescroller and will never have the same charm in 3D
I think the sonic series is a good example of sidescrolling gottagofast was the best format and moving in to 3D lost any charm it had

I agree.
Also Castlevania and Megaman.
>>3221362
All of them
>>3221362
Anything that is not fighting games.

Sonic is a very simple to control and understand game, I would argue the whole point of the game how accessible it is. So trying to work in 3D movement is inherently opposed to Sonic's philosophy.

Castlevania got some pretty good post retro games, though.
>>3221368
I think a Castlevania in the vein of Metroid Prime could work. Or I could be completely wrong as I didn't enjoy or play much of any Castlevanias after Simon's Quest. Also, making a whip fun to play with in first person would be a novel accomplishment.

Metroid Prime proves that "things only work in retro" or "only in 2D" is wrong.

Yeah, and so does Mario, Zelda, Castlevania, DKC, etc.
