in animal crossing there is a lot of competitions like fishing and bug capturing, i can just add a catch meter and ill have opponent :)
I think iSTVAN means that entries with games that already have a 2D interpretation will certainly have a comparison between the official and yours. Like, you gotta challenge yourself not only to make a reinterpretation, but to be different from the already made.
But I do think it was just his advice ;D
Nice Challenge! I'm definitely in!
As for what to do...I'm a huge Metroid fan, so I may possibly do a Prime game. I don't know which one, though, and I hate taking other people's ideas...
Zymn: Yes, I would certainly accept a game like Doom. There has already been a Wolfenstein remake.
