I really need these games ported to Steam. What do y'all have on your lists? (piefed.social)

I'm currently scraping the Steam barrel and I could really use these ports:

  1. Gravity Rush Remastered/Gravity Rush 2: best traversal in gaming. Surprisingly fun combat too. Just pure joy all around.
  2. Viewtiful Joe: integral Kamiya core and probably the closest on this list to actually happening seeing the Clover revival.
  3. God Hand: I have nothing new to add here. All I can do is reiterate the "beat'em goat" claim.
  4. The Red Star: PS2 hidden gem—mix of beat'em up and twin-stick shooter. Proper action game rooted in arcade design principles.
  5. Ketsui: again, all I can do is reiterate the "shmup goat" claim. Criminal this is not on Steam. Come on, M2.

Alternate editions of games we already have on Steam:

  1. Catherine: Full Body: extra stages is cool, but I need the online Colosseum.
  2. Ninja Gaiden II: ugh, this one is obviously never happening at this point. I swear, even if they try a third time, they'll most likely find some way to mess it up.

Definitely never happening: Pikmin. Nintendo suck.

Wish you were not downvoted, you are expressing this view civilly. No offputting insults towards anyone who maybe has the impulse for convenience enough to post a game here thinking "it would be cool if I could open this through Steam," but knows in practice yeah it is good there is not a monopoly and they had to get it somewhere else. (Or maybe it just released pre-Steam.) This thread turned from a quick fun discussion into "corporate bootlicker!" "Buzzkill!" really fast and I am not a fan.
