[update]
One of the main reasons for I requesting this remake is because here in my country this game became very famous for the modified version with "Mônica no Castelo do Dragão"

Same here, but there is the fact that the game is always sold by SEGA here and there, it could be an issue for allowing a remaster like Wonder Boy: the Dragon trap which contain both new and old visuals.

Also I started to play this game again and found some old fashioned game mechanics which could be somewhat annoying.

The beginning could be a way too slow (or not) compared to The Dragon Trap because of low tier boots.

And the Purapril castle's tower with the very long stair make it very long to climb and go down. At this time the down arrow + jump command on plateform didn't exist. So it makes the comeback as long as your climb.

It would be so awesome

Has my vote, would be instant buy like this was. Ahhhh SMS memories.

Would also really like a remake! Played Monster world the genesis version a month ago, was awesome. I have to agree, Puraprils tower is a really long walk down, but a remake should fix it!

Regarding the OP. The video is most certainly WB in Monster Land which is as stated by someone before, a totally different game to Monster World. Personally I would LOVE to see a remake of Monster Land. This is my most favourite game of all time. Also for me, Sega Master System versions all the way.

I still own a master system with both monster land and dragons trap games. I fell in love with both games and i agree a remake of monster land would be great.

I played both Sega Master System versions and the Megadrive/Genesis versions because I love the series but I really can't say the same :/

Also, the SMS version of Wonder boy in Monster World is just a bad port of the Genesis one, so please avoid it.

A remake of "Wonderboy in Monster Land" is a nice idea, however it would be problematic without some major adjustments. The game is very old, and this means it has some gameplay elements from the arcade game era and some unique gameplay elements that aren't used nowadays anymore (or at least rarely used). For example:
- A very strict time limit that regulary depletes your health
- Many items are just for points and without any really use.
- Linear stage progress without being able to return to earlier stages (okay, this one is debateble)
- As a result: Only a limited amount of gold, you have to know what to buy
- Overall a very high difficulty (especially in the original arcade version)
- Your movements (speed and jumping range) depend on your "boots" (if you do not buy better ones in the game then you won't come very far)
- The SMS version most people know is just a stripped down version of the arcade original.

As much I like Wonderboy in Monster Land, I think that "Wonderboy in Monster World" would be the better option for a remake because:
- It's easier, so it can be played by more people.
- No time limit.
- All items are meant to be used, not just for points.
- It's metroidvania-style so you can "explore" the world.
- As a result: you can always return to locations to find things you have missed
- As a further result: No gold limit -> Buy whatever you want
- Even though the game mechanic with the boots is here too, it's much more forgiving. Missed some boots? Just return to an earlier location and buy them.

I agree with the points that have been made here. Essentially a remake of Wonder Boy in Monster Land would really need to be a re-imagining to bring it into the modern era. Wonder Boy in Monster World or even Monster World IV would be better candidates for a remake, although I'm not sure they would benefit as much as the Dragon's Trap from being remade, as they are 16 bit games they actually hold up quite well graphically anyway.

Rather than a remake, I would personally like to see a direct sequel to the Dragon's Trap. A new game based on the Dragon's Trap.

For me, they can remake the arcade version of Monster Land, just adding some options like disabling the time limit/adjusting difficulty, and adding the exclusive SMS stage along its two bosses. Some more work, but it would be nice to have both halves of the story with the same quality.

Then they can enhanced remake Monster World & MW IV. ;) #havethemall

An easy mode could help?!
But the game need be the same dificult from the old game from Master System...

[DarkPhoenixFF4]

But the fact that Monsterland was HARDER THAN ♥♥♥♥ was the entire point! Why would you want to make it easier?
Though I agree that the screen timer and the fact that the game would reset itself if left paused too long are both terrible, terrible mechanics...
