The return of 2D gameplay is also welcomed in titles like SFIV and Bionic Commando. The World Ends With You is another fine example of excellent 2D mechanics along with a host of titles on the DS and PSP.
I never felt 3D was as grand of a revolution as people made them out to be back in the late 90's, probably cause the games I liked playing were not exactly titles that needed it (RPGs) only fighting games got a drastic change and I'm still waiting for them to get good in 3D. :rolleyes2
Yes, this.
Not really a 'trend' thing, but I'd also like to see some more games that never get released outside of Japan. I've gone so far as to buy a Japanese PS2 to play games that never got released here. It's great for games with minimal Japanese, but other games are difficult to play if you can't read kanji. :x
I'd also like to see some visual novels get released in this region too-- *is shot*
