I wish they had focused on bring some shmups (tons of Cave games available that have a loyal cult following here in the US...Dondonpachi DOJ, Ibara, Mushimesama, Espalaguda, Shiki 2, Homura, XII Stag, Raiden III & Double Shienryu would all be nice choices for localization). Also, it would be cool to see some of the Simple 2000 Series released here, as a few have been in Europe. Would love to see someone start a Simple 2000 like series (Europe has the 505 Gamestreet lable) here in the US with $10-$20 price point...huge customer base available with many PS2 ownershaving no plans to go "Next Gen" for some time due to price...

I, for one, would surely welcome if Sega started releasing many of their Sega Ages releases at a cheap budget price, especially if they got around to releasing Gunstar Heroes: Treasure Box or the Monster World Complete Collection.
