Silent Hill 2 and or 3. Mostly 2.
That would be grand.
But...but my nostalgia!
Naw, I kid.
Those are all valid reasons. I personally love 8 and 18 bit sprites and old chip tune music. They could still make chip tune music but improve the fidelity, sort of like how Shovel Knight did it. The number of musical "instrument" lines combined with th game sound effects is far beyond what the NES or even SNES were capable of due to memory restrictions.

I hear that. Even with the mods, DAO is a pretty ugly game. The animations are pretty atrocious. If they they remastered it in the same engine and graphics quality they used for DAI it would sell like hot cakes. It's pretty amazing how bad the game looks, considering it's not even 7 years old yet. Mass effect 1 doesn't look much worse than DAO, and that game is even older. I think scifi games have it easier, as there are less natural things to texture, due to the futuristic aesthetic.
Indeed, Shovel Knight is a masterpiece!
Also, don't get me wrong, I still love sprites just Toriyama's artstyle isn't great for squashed chibi sprites is all. :P
Now Cosmic Star Heroine uses the same style as Chrono Trigger and looks awesome IMO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juKE8FvMky0
