I've been watching a friend stream a lot of Gameboy Advance games lately and it's been making me think a lot about sprite-based games. There is something about sprite-based games that really warms my soul; a great art style can really make the medium shine. I don't know what it is, but there's just something so fantastical about beautiful sprite work. I mean, seriously, look at these:
While I love 3D games, it makes me sad how as soon as 3D came around 2D was almost completely abandoned by most of the AAA publishers. Do you think we'll ever see another sprite-based game by one of the big players or do you think we'll need to count on indies to continue to take up that mantle? What are some examples of the most beautiful sprite-based games?
