''When people talk about classic JRPGs, the usual suspects are mentioned: Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Earth Bound etc. But there’s one brilliant JRPG that set the Game Boy Advance alight: Golden Sun.
Traditional in nearly every sense, Golden Sun was an utter treat. The visuals, the music, the gameplay, the Djinn system–all of it is sheer quality. Sure, the story was a little weak, but this was more than forgivable.
Despite the above, however, Golden Sun has oddly been forgotten by the masses, seen more as a cult hit. It’s a shame the game never truly got the love and attention it deserved, seemingly trapped in the shadow of more popular JRPG franchises.''

Yea good luck. Put this in the pile with f-zero, kid Icarus, wario land, etc. and label it the "wt are you waiting for" pile
I would love to play a new Wario Land but it will never happen 😭😭😭
hah, seriously, they are sitting on a goldmine of IP's that they dont want to do anything with.
This has been overdue since the gamecube era

"Nintendo is widely known for its deep, eclectic well of beloved franchises. From The Legend of Zelda to Wrecking Crew, there’s no library in gaming as rich in history or as popular among fans.
2019 is shaping up to be a banner year for Nintendo, with representatives from Mario, Fire Emblem, Zelda, and Pokémon all gracing the Switch platform before the year’s end. At the same time, there are still plenty of Nintendo franchises that lie dormant this generation, in desperate need of the “Switch treatment.”
While there are plenty of legendary series worthy of a revival, here are six in particular I would absolutely kill to see on Switch in the near future."
A new Golden Sun and Mother would be great, but I wish I wasn't the only one that wants a new StarTropics.

I've never played Golden Sun but I heard great things about it. Oh well, never cared for mobile gaming with the PSP and PS Vita being the only non phone/tablets mobile devices I've purchased for my nephews.
Golden Sun U would be awesome!
Battalion Wars 3 also Nintendo!
they made golden sun on wii u i would die estatic not literally die but it felt like i died gone to heaven in limbo when game launches id have same feeling all over again
Great game.
One of my favorite RPGs of all time
I actually had more fun with golden sun than some of the bigger known RPGs like chrono trigger and ff7
