If you were rich would you fund a video game sequel?

Beat ya to it. Totally agree, this needs to happen.

Let's combine our life savings.
Where are we on the name? I like Herzog Zwei Zwei.
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.

If you were rich would you fund a video game sequel?
What, are you high?

HELL FUCKIN YEAH!!!

Not only that, I'd have my own video game company (eventual part of my media empire, don't ask cuz it's too involved and kinda WIP).

Also, I'd go out of my way to buy franchises and IPs that I feel are neglected by their owners. Basically, I'd kinda be the SPCA of video game franchises.

Of those franchises, I'd get the rights to:

* Bug!
* Panzer Dragoon
* Primal Rage
* Gex
* Jazz Jackrabbit
to name a few

I'd also work on getting the American rights to various JP/EU-only games, such as:

* MegaTen franchise (I've actually found on particular way to swing SMT1-2, utilizing dynamic self-censoring that alters the content based on the content restrictions, so it's possible to be an E10 game, a T game or an M game, the latter being completely uncensored)
* Touhou (I feel as though there's a possible market here in the states), though it'd be a massive grandscale Doujin rollout
* RPG Maker
* Super Robot Taisen


Basically, my company would be driven by a "by fans, for fans" mantra.

Oh man, I would be all over a new Commander Keen. (Provided that Tom Hall was leading the project.)
