This is my favourite topic

1. Sega Dreamcast
2. Amiga
3. Arcade
the others are already available at the Virtual Console on Nintendo Wii
I'm missing the Sega saturn as possible choice, would also be interesting to play those games again, although it would only be 3rd or 4th choice

1. Dreamcast
That's it, really.

fisk0: My opinion is that they really should prioritize the other home computer platforms, those are games that usually were made for keyboard and mouse (some amiga and C64 games used joystick though), so they would play very close to how they were intended on the PC, while emulated console games really play better on modern consoles than emulated on the PC, even though you can connect an gamepad to the PC.
And, I think the home computer systems are a bit underappreciated compared to the classic consoles, and the classic console titles do get recognized on xbla, virtual console, psn, etc., while the classic home computers get very little recognition apart from some C64 classics stuff, and the iconic C64 SID music.
There were so many home computer platforms in the 80's and early 90's, and i'd love it if as the libraries of as many as humanly possible were available on GOG.
Amiga/CD32, Commodore 64/128, Atari ST/XE, MSX, the CoCo 1/2/3 and so many more which don't get the recognition they deserve.

I think they should start expanding and splitting GoG in order to get coherent updates and releases of games. One for Indie games, one for (old) PC and home computer games, one for old console games.

3. Dreamcast
Frankly it's easy enough to find remakes or rereleases of the best games for the SNES, Megadrive and Nintendo 64 (like the recent Sega pack on Steam, for example).
On the other hand, it's much harder to find old games from the other platforms, at least legally.
From those, I'm most interested in games that were actually designed to be played on a computer with mouse and keyboard. As for the Dreamcast, there were some great games on there that I'd love to be able to play.

DREAMCAST!!!!
I loved that system... i would love to play Skys of Arcadia again.. one of the best RPG's ever!

1. Sega Genesis: I was a Nintendo fan-boy in the 16-bit era, but this system had some real gems that are worth everyone's time.
2: Nintendo 64: This system was usually about quality over quantitiy, and is vastly under represented on the Wii virtual console. The PC would be the perfect platform to bring back games from developers who have parted ways from Nintendo. (I'm looking at you Rare.)
3: Sega Dreamcast: A legit way to get at this system's library would be great.

Amiga, C64 and DC are the only legit choice since these aren't present on any other digital distribution platform.
But then again Nintendo isn't gonna distribute games made for its system on another platform then one of its own, it's simply not gonna happen.
And there are no decent emulators for DC.

1. Commodore 64
2. Sega Dreamcast
3. MSX
Even though I grew up a console gamer and never really got to experience these computers much, I would love to see gog get games from these three computers and be able to own and experience some of those classics for the first time. It would just fit with the rest of gog's computer games lineup too, though alot of MSX's games are in Japanese, so there would be a slight problem with that unless someone were to translate them. Not to mention it would probably be a pain to get the rights to sell MSX games on gog.
Edit: After looking up some Amiga games, I wasn't too impressed with it so I changed number 2 to Sega Dreamcast. (no offense intended to Amiga fans)

Would have to say
Amiga
C64
?
Not certain what the third choice would be. Never owned an actual gaming console.

1. Amiga
2. C64
3. NeoGeo

Never posted before but this topic pretty much requires it.
1. Sega Dreamcast. These suckers are hard to find and harder to find the good games for.
2. Super NES. One of the best systems ever made, hands down. Plenty of amazing titles. Unfortunately it's already emulated like crazy, so dunno how much profit could be made.
3.Nintendo 64. Nintendo has done almost nothing with this on the Virtual Console. A handful of great titles doesn't make up for the dozens of amazing titles that will almost certainly never see the light of day.
And let me throw this in as well since we're talking dream scenarios...get the titles that are almost impossible to get. Earthbonud for the SNES springs to mind. Nintendo hasn't rereleased a version of that in the States for various reasons. Figure them out, find ways around them, and profit where Nintendo fears to tread.

1) Amiga
2) Dreamcast
3) Nintendo 64
That would be seriously awesome.

1. Amiga (it goes without saying... Superfrog, original Cannon Fodder, Chaos Engine, Yo Joe, Chuck Rock, Flashback, Body Blows, Silkworm, Virtua Pool and so many others)
2. Arcade (many great games such as galaga, kof, snow bros, galaxian, final fight)
3. Commodore 64 (legendary platform)
4. Also... Atari 2600 :)
Posted June 09, 2010
1. ZX Spectrum - I know it's not in the list, but hey, it's my childhood ;-)
2. Amiga
Posted June 09, 2010
I hope this is actually going to happen!
1. Amiga
2. SNES
3. Nintendo 64
#1 and 2 mean a lot more to me than #3.
