Ports vs remake

[edit]

A remake implies a game was redesigned using different/modern concepts and assets in such a way that it becomes more than just adaption to a newer platform. Minor QOL updates and restored cut content does not count, or else any Game of the Year edition could be considered a remake. Obviously the game's 68K source code could not be read by Android/iOS or else it would have not been necessary to provide any new coding/assets in the first place. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 19:15, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Where exactly are you getting this narrow definition of "remake"? The Taxman versions were entirely remade; no code from the original games was used, at all. If it's not a remake, then fine, it's something else, but it certainly isn't a port. MeanMotherJr (talk) 00:19, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
