Now that we know The Wind Waker is being redone in HD, this naturally brings to mind what other GameCube games could or should receive the same treatment. The removal of the cel-shaded look in The Wind Waker is debatable, but which GameCube games would you like to see remastered just as far as graphics go?
My own personal list is as follows:
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. I won't lie, the graphics in PoR were terrible, even though it's my second favorite game of all time slightly behind Skyward Sword. An HD rendition could really flesh out the battlefields, cutscenes, and combat, making it look like the Fire Emblem that never was.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. If it looks anything like the HD demo, it'll be awesome. Better judgment in color choice would also benefit it, but smooth HD graphics would make it look amazing on its own.
Super Smash Bros. Melee. Picture Big Blue in HD. Or Brinstar Depths, or Fourside, or Temple, or Great Bay, or Fountain of Dreams, or just about any stage. Picture the characters in detailed HD. That is epic. Don't deny it.
Super Mario Sunshine. Sunshine had an interesting use of colors, but as an early GameCube title, its graphics were a little sub-par. But imagine the environments of places like Sirena Beach and Bianco Hills in HD, not to mention more polished character models. This is probably one of the top GameCube games I'd want in HD, actually.
Metroid Prime/2. This one's kind of a no-brainer. It had awesome graphics anyway, but places like the Magmoor Caverns and Phendrana Drifts would really make good use of the HD.
Naturally every GameCube title could benefit from HD, but which ones strike you as being better candidates? After all, if The Wind Waker's HD release is going to take awhile, not every GC game is going to make the cut.
