Not sure if I'm being out of the loop and there already is, but this would be a good time to introduce a remaster of the old games - this year already has some great (Beyond Good&Evil) and promising (Soul Reaver 1&2) remasters

Heck, any new Shinobi game would be cool, whether brand new or old one remastered. I don't really recall Sega doing much with Shinobi in 3D, and it's been a long time since the ones on the GameCube/PS2 generation came out (which are the last ones I can think of). Heck, the latest Ninja Gaiden was 10 years ago or more. Either of those franchises could really use another entry. Ninja Gaiden would also be another good ninja-based franchise for a movie.
