Man... SEGA doesn't know how much they could hype and profit from remaking that game.
A remake with present day tech could catapult the game to GOTY material if well done.

Memories of another world, where gaming was young and innocent and didn't aim to extort all your money with cynic monetisation systems. It was a good time.
Just a shame the genre was too niche back then for such masterpieces to get the recognition they deserved.
