Tengo Project’s recent games (such as the pitch-perfect revamps of SNES standouts Wild Guns and Pocky & Rocky) are remakes in the way that John Carpenter’s The Thing is a remake. Is the original still great? Of course. But the new one is just so much cooler.
Retro revivals are a dime a dozen these days; even real Crocs of shite are getting a second chance with rose-tinted hindsight on their side, but a good deal of them fail to surpass the suite of features you can find on any number of volunteer-developed emulators.
