More niche games, especially simulators. Sure, we have AIRCRAFT simulators, but if someone made an ultra-realistic mech sim or something similar, with a weird controller you had too buy, it might not sell well, but it would become a classic among geeks and the ridiculous price would ensure it was profitable!

Forgot to mention: Xenosaga 4, 5, and 6.

A game in Middle Earth by Team ICO.

Twelve Tales: Conker 64.

What? Bad Fur Day is awesome, but sometimes I love to resort to cutesy games.

There is this one game called Magic of Scherazade with I really, really adore on the NES and it was said they would make a sequel, but they didn't so I want it because that game was awesome. Awesome soundtrack, awesome gameplay... awesome everything...

Oh yeah, and Startropics 3...

I am a mega fan of the Dark Cloud series (It is called Dark Chronicles for those in the UK & Europe). After the beautiful masterpiece that was Dark Cloud 2/Dark Chronicles 2 in 2003, I eagerly awaited for Dark Cloud 3. To this day, in 2011, Dark Cloud 3 is still not here. *cries hysterically*

Also, I wanted a true addition to the Banjoe-Kazooie series (Nuts & Bolts does not count. It was just a vehicle creation game that happened to have Banjoe-Kazooie in it).

There were some that I wished got made, but for some reason the execs decided to welp out and turn them into something else, even though the fans wanted otherwise.

These were-
Star Wars: KoTOR 3, even though many people wanted a single player RPG that would finally tie up the loose ends of Revan's and the Exile's stories, the executives thought it 'best' for it to be a MMORPG and so this Star Wars: The Old Republic was born. While it's fine in that you can explore a much larger 'world,' it sucks because a monthly subscription fee comes along with it and you have to play with other people to complete some quests. Also, while it does takes place about 300 years after the last game (which I like) there is no sense of 'destiny.' You play a nobody who's main goals are to roam about, and 'solve' quests that dozens of people have already completed before you.

Star Wars The Force Unleashed 3, but I don't know if it will ever be made (as it's the end of a supposed trilogy) or if it be will waay too late and now is nothing but zombieware.

I failed to mention another game that I wanted made and released:

Recoil: Retrograd...

I had the honor of meeting the writer Morten Iversen (who also wrote the story for two of the Hitman games) at a local gamejam about 3 or 4 months ago, where he told us about the problems a game company could run into when devoping new games. Recoil: Retrograd was his main example and he brought along some internal concept books and a disk with a running demo (Can be seen HERE under Gameplay- Recoil: Retrograd)

The concepts of the game were stunning, try to think Bioshock (design and aestethics) mixed with chrono trigger (time travel) and mix it into a bowl of 3rd person shooter goodness

The video game for Titan A.E.. They really were working on one but it got canned because the movie blew at the box office.

A game where you have take care of a meerkat and it actualy acts like a meerkat and when you take it to the vet, you get to the the doctor.

I really miss Tabula Rasa. I only played it when NCSoft made the decision to pull the plug and the last month was free. (Didn't know about it beforehand.) It was an absolute blast. Basically it was a sci-fi MMO third-person shooter. There were some bases which could be captured by mobs and people would have to band together to take it back, and it was just a blast overall. It doesn't start out seeming like there was going to be much in the way of complexity. Two classes at first, a few basic weapons, a lightning skill, but the game just took off with so much to do and see, secret spots to find that could give you permanent stat buffs or new skills. It just didn't do well and NCSoft killed it and is holding its corpse until further notice. What I wouldn't do to see this game come back. I don't care if it comes back as F2P, private server, or even subscription-based again. I just want to play it.

I sort of wish it for the other way round for Duke Nukem: Forever.

It was cancelled, and then revived and turned into the game I just couldn't get into.

Duke Hails as the King in the 90s baby!
