I know a remaster was once considered, given it was a frequently requested re-release like Shenmue, although that was 7 years ago and we haven't heard anything since. Tetsuya Otsubo, who directed the enhanced GameCube port of Skies of Arcadia, is currently directing Project Sakura Wars which is scheduled to release later this year. But afterwards, do you think SEGA will remaster Skies of Arcadia?
I just think more people should be able to play the original without paying a collector's price. When I purchased Skies of Arcadia Legends (the enhanced GameCube port that featured bonus content and a lower random encounter rate) nearly a decade ago, it was $60 dollars used. Now it's closer to $100. That's why it's hard to recommend other people play it because as much as it made me smile from ear to ear, I know others will probably see it more as a solid 8/10 whereas it's my all-time favorite game.
