The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Don't hold your breath. Might as well wish for Lufia and Terranigma while you're at it.
What about Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia?
Those are slightly more likely, since they have come out here in the US before and the company that owns the IP is still around. The company that owns the rights to the Lufia games is pretty much AWOL, and Terranigma never got a US release.

Man, I wub Soul Blazer/Gaia series so much. Played through em a bunch of times.

aren't they the same game
No, not at all. They're somewhat related, plot-wise, but they are two completely separate games. Sadly, the only way to play Terranigma in the US is to either buy a PAL copy, a PAL SNES, and a PAL TV, or illegally.

for some reason i'd thought it was a title change, not a whole nother game in the series

Yeah, buddy, and let me tell you, it's easily the best. The combat is a tad repetitive and some of the bosses are fucking hardzilla, but the plot is incredible and it's pretty as hell.

I thought Earthbound had gotten rated by the ESRB and everything was on track?
That would be pretty awesome. I hope I'm wrong about that one. I also hope it sells so well that they pull their heads out of their asses and release mother 3 over here.

Agreed, while Gaia was in a few ways a step down from Blazer, Terranigma is just fantastic. It fills me with ire that all we get out of S-E is square mining their own franchises instead of a few more enix styled games.

Gaia was way more playable than Soul Blazer. Soul Blazer is an early SNES title in every sense of the phrase.
Also: Enix didn't develop the games. Quintet did, and they're basically gone, as well as Neverland, the company which made the Lufia games.
Edit: Neverland isn't gone, they're just irrelevant.

I suppose I am rose-coloring it a bit, but I think the atmosphere in Blazer really stuck with me. And I just did a wiki search and man, I loved the shit out of every quintet game. Too bad they're 6 feet under.

Yeah. I really hope they sell their IP and shit happens with it, but who fucking knows. Maybe we'll luck out and one guy at Square loves the shit out of Lufia and will see about re-releasing them. Wouldn't be the first time they put out some crazy bullshit that no-one cared about except one dude in the company.

Edit: Also, Robotrek. Fuck yes, that game.
fuck, gotta find my credit card.
Robotrek is fun as hell. Never played Granstream.
Robotrek was awesome.
You build robots
and then fight things with them. Customization! Also there are ghosts and vampires and stuff.
Yeah, well, you got Terranigma.
What was that?
One of the best RPGs on the SNES.

A thing of beauty.
