      3 would have benefitted greatly from a remake.
      4 is one of the greatest JRPGs ever made and doesn't need the help; the pacing, the characters, the music are all incredible.
      Chrono Trigger is the only better paced RPG than Phantasy Star 4, with the latter getting a nostalgia boost because I was much younger when I played it.

    Fist of the North Star is based on a beloved & ultra-violent Anime/Manga Franchise that also takes inspiration from Mad Max and Bruce Lee and in some weird way became influential to other franchises in the future such as Double Dragon and even Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. When Kenshiro does that wild scream of his, it's an homage to Bruce Lee that was even used in nearly every rendition of the games moving forward.

    I have fond memories of Black Belt. :) I was very surprised when I found out it was a modified Hokuto no Ken game, decades later, since, by then, I had become a fan of the manga. And I definitely recommend the manga. It hasn't aged as well as, say, Dragon Ball, but it's still a very fun ride.
    Back in the day, I'd probably have gotten a few of these Ages games, since I tend to like SEGA's classic arcades a lot. But I never had a PS2 and none of them came out in the PC.
