Neglected franchises.

[PsychoYoshi]

The core Mario series was neglected for years in between SM64 and SMG while Nintendo created a million sports spin-offs and a mediocre excuse for a platformer where you used a squirt gun to clean up graffiti.

NOA isn't "too lazy" to translate Mother 1 and 3. Mother 1 was translated, just never released. Mother 3 won't be translated because they know darn well it won't do very well here in the States, despite the sizable cult following that Earthbound has gathered. It's not enough to make them a good profit.

Also, Spyro has the right to be neglected. His games are mediocre at best.

Also also, Gradius is a neglected series here in the States. Poor little Vic Viper just doesn't get any attention.

Smash Bros. would help garner attention for Earthbound. It got me into Metal Gear.

Anyway...
Sonic needs good games.
Mega Man/X/Legends needs sequels. ZX doesn't cut it.
Donkey Kong needs new life.
Pokemon needs better console games.
Skies of Arcadia needs a sequel... bad. :(
Kirby needs a console game.
