Can the devs remake this NES wizardry-like game?

Enjoying this on my Switch and I suddenly remember, years ago as a kid, playing Nintendo Classic "Might and Magic: Secret of the Inner Sanctum". I like the visuals, game mechanics and especially the music. Hope they remake this, or can they make a similar one or like Wizardry Tales of the Forsaken Land, good story and gameplay? I see the Experience Inc. Devs are the only ones making games like this and enjoying some of it on my Switch. Still waiting for another Etrian Odyssey game. Now that game is very good at using class abilities. Wish someone can Kickstart a good modern Wizardry-like game with good storytelling and music. Do the devs make another like this or that's it?

I believe that title is on GOG. Part of a bundle of 1 through 6 for $10.

Its not been remade like this one but it does run under a dosbox wrapper.

Before it was a Nintendo Classic, it was an Apple II classic- in fact, that was the original platform.

As mentioned, it should currently be available as part of a bundle on GOG, which includes Might and Magic 1 to 5 (I didn't think 6 was included but I could be wrong). I personally played 4 and 5 from this bundle, although I burned out before the end, after getting my characters to level 100+.

Don't know what it looked like on Nintendo, but M&M 1 graphics on the Apple II was just as primitive as Wizardry's. But the mechanics were (in my opinion) more advanced- for one thing, Robbers and Archers should shoot bows from the back rank.

The only thing I didn't like about the Might and Magic series was the training costs to level up. In Might and Magic 5, it was very possible to reach such high levels that you could no longer afford to pay for advancement. You have to engage in some convoluted tricks to generate enough gold. Money being the bottleneck to leveling was a new and unpleasant experience for me. That was one of the reasons that I stopped playing.

Ah, thanks. Good to know. I just need to remember my GOG account since it was years ago since I use it. I guess I have to rely on the Japanese devs to make games like this since the West rarely cares anymore for this genre. 👍
