Probably The Legacy of Kain series... or maybe the Gargoyles Quest/Demon's Crest series

Viewtiful Joe.

Just for one more game.

Tell us what the Black V-Watch meant! Explain the dark castle! Let us fight the Third Threat!

Just finish the danged story. You hooked me with action and random bouts of serious story, it's not fair for your studio to just fold one game from the finish line!

I have a message from another time...

F-ZERO.

This year, the race locales have changed drastically. Recent enhancements to G-Diffuser technology have enabled F-Zero racing machines to travel over liquid surfaces.

Grand Prix organizers have decided to take full advantage, bringing the tracks down from the clouds and right onto the surfaces of the planets where the races take place.

This new form of racing, largely based upon the ancient motorsport of "rallying", has led to a revolution in F-Zero track design, and with it, machine design. A new field of machines, piloted by a familiar cast of racers, on an all new set of speedways.

This new season of the F-Zero Grand Prix will be called F-Zero FX.

What qualifies as discontinued series?

I mean, at least F-Zero isn't 'discontinued' it just hasn't got a sequel in 5 or so years. I would call series discontinued if Word of God says so, publisher says there aren't plans to make more or it hasn't gotten in loooooooong time a sequel.

Those games were too good to be killed off by their central gimmick.

Secret Of Evermore. Hell, I don't even need a reboot or a sequel. I just want a spiritual successor that has that goofy B-movie theme, great atmosphere, and incredible music. The Mana games are fun, but there's something about Secret Of Evermore that makes me love it so much more.

And even though I have yet to play any entries in the series even half-way through, I want Breath Of Fire to be revived. They're so different in atmosphere and mood from every other jrpg series, but they get continually shafted by development issues, bad translations, and poor sales.

Man, Dungeon Keeper and Breath Of Fire were both excellent choices, but I'm going to go with the Soul Blazer trilogy.
