I'll start: Gex.

Yes the Gex series is incredibly 90's with it's focus on ATTITUDE! But the 3D platformers were actually a lot of fun ('Deep Cover Gecko' being my favorite)

Since Gex centers on a character diving into a TV set, there's lots of opportunity to lampoon current TV trends like 90's reboots. Maybe toss in a cel shaded level that parodies Tom & Jerry, or a black & white level in the style of 'Steamboat Willie'?
 
Gex would be so much fun. We kind of do need a new edgy platforming hero.

Here’s mine
 
Oh my God, I've been on the Gex reboot train for ages! A lot of people said T.V. isn't as prominent anymore/might not work in our current age. I pitched the idea that maybe he could go into streaming services or even the internet. I know that changes his goal of getting T.V. remotes but, who knows...maybe it could work.

I'd love to see Gex redone. Especially since the likes of Crash, Spyro etc etc are all getting their return to fame.

If I had an opportunity to bring a older game back, I'd pick The Suffering developed by Midway Games. Horror games are kind of stale at the moment while the film industry seems to be making a comeback with them. I'd love to see an updated version of this property. It was so freakin' cool.
