Which video games have been trapped on a hardware platform (console/handheld/headset/etc.) that you wish would be ported well?

I was reading about Oculus accounts that haven't been assimilated into Meta accounts being erased, & it got me thinking about games trapped on hardware platforms again. What are some of the games you wish would have good ports across different hardware?

There was one really underrated feature in the Kinect and that was its microphones. It allowed for voice commands and interactions in games.

And with how popular LLMs have gotten, wouldn't it be amazing to have an actual conversation with an NPC? Imagine LA Noire where you can ask any question you want. Or Bethesda games where you're not limited to 4 or 5 canned responses. Natural language conversation with NPCs would be such an amazing feature and I thought that's where Kinect was going to take us.
