I still hope to see Prince of Persia (the original) on the Coco3.  It's available on almost all other computers of this time (Commodore 64, Apple II, etc).  But I can't really help, I'm more a hardware than a software guy.

I just read a fun article in the most recent (March 2014) issue of The 
Smithsonian Magazine.  It explained that a remake of a game is taking an 
older game and making it play even better on the newer hardware available. 
But "demaking" a game puts that into reverse.  They mentioned that the game 
Halo, one of the most popular series of games of the past few years, was 
recently rewritten for the Atari 2600, and is called Halo 2600.  One 
reviewer called it "probably the best video game ever crammed into a meager 
4KB of memory".

Hmmm...   The Coco3 and Assassin's Creed or Starcraft II ???
