Bring Ribbit King to modern consoles

The Issue

Ribbit King was a quirky, charming, and genuinely fun game that perfectly encapsulated the eccentric charm of the early 2000s gaming era. For many of us who had the pleasure of playing it, Ribbit King wasn't just a game; it was an invitation to a uniquely vibrant and imaginative world where frogs catapulting themselves on lily pads was the pinnacle of sport. Yet, unlike many games from that golden era, Ribbit King hasn't had the revival it deserves.

We live in an age where classic games are continuously being remastered and re-introduced to new audiences, breathing life into old favourites and preserving them for future generations. While many games enjoy a resurgence in popularity, Ribbit King—a treasure from Bandai's library—remains in the shadows, without a spiritual successor or even any indie game taking inspiration from its unique concept.

This petition aims to reach out to Bandai Namco Entertainment and modern console companies to highlight the demand for this beloved game and encourage them to bring Ribbit King to the current generation of consoles. Bandai Namco has already demonstrated the ability to successfully bring older games back to life, so why not Ribbit King? A remaster or digital release could introduce this one-of-a-kind experience to today's gaming community, ensuring it is not lost to time.

We believe that there is a vibrant community of gamers, both old and new, who would embrace this return. Imagine playing Ribbit King on high-definition screens, with enhanced graphics and possibly new features, while still preserving the charm that made the original game so loved. By doing so, Bandai Namco would be reinvigorating their own legacy and offering something truly unique in today's market.

Let's remind Bandai Namco of the wonderful gem they created and show them why Ribbit King deserves a place alongside modern gaming classics. Sign this petition to bring Ribbit King back to our consoles, back to our homes, and most importantly, back to our hearts.

Whether we get the game back in the form of a Remaster, emulated port, or something else, that is fine. All I and we as a community ask is that this game not be forgotten.
