Jet set radio, Possibly the BEST game ever on dreamcast, same goes with JSRF and JGRA except different systems. Now I know a bunch of people want more, maybe for wii, I dunno. At least just make a new one for any system! If you own any of these games and you think they're the best EVER (or you just love them) support this!
2. Save the Early Childhood Centre Services 
The Sydney Southwest Area Health Service is planning to cut crucial services from their Early Childhood Centre Program.
One of the main changes includes the ceasing of the Tuesday morning drop-in service in the Balmain Early Childhood Centre (and no doubt other centres as well). This change will come into effect in mid-December and this decision was implemented without any consultation with the community at large.
The drop-in service has provided regular and accessible help to many parents in an informal setting and has also provided an important supportive forum for many parents to meet other parents.
It is essential for many parents to help care for their young children because babies needs are often immediate and cannot wait until planned appointments which are only available weeks in advance.
Many parents in Balmain are from interstate, overseas or country areas and are separated from their support networks. They rely heavily on formal services for support.
More changes - such as ceasing information forums like 'Introducing Solids' - are planned and something needs to be done to show the SSWAHS that these services are vital for the health and well being of our babies and parents and to ensure that no more services are taken away.
Please help us protect the mental and physical health of our babies and parents in Balmain and other suburbs within the Sydney South West Area and sign this petition to have our Early Childhood Services re-instated and to ensure that future changes to the Early Childhood Program be thoroughly debated by the community.
3. Remake Pokémon Gold and Silver for the DS
This petition was started because a large audience of Pokémon fans want the classic Gameboy Colour games remade for a newer console and to introduce a new audience of gamers to the games we used to play.
4. Kid Icarus & Punch Out for the Classic NES Series for Gameboy Advance
Nintendo released Kid Icarus and Punch Out for the NES in the 1980's. Both of these are classic games. Recently Nintendo has begun to re-release some of their older games on the Gameboy Advance as part of their Classic NES series. This petition is to ask Nintendo to include these two great games as part of the series.
5. Stop Centrelink Creating Debt For Australian Families
Thousands of Australian families are being put into debt because they are unable to predict their taxable income a year in advance. Family Tax Benefits and Child Care Benefits are calculated on predictions of taxable income. Pay rises, working overtime or going back to work early after leave are not taken into account and often lead to debts in the THOUSANDS of dollars for already struggling families.
Income should be assessed on weekly earnings and updated quarterly so payments can be adjusted and debts not accrued.
Families should not have to pay back Benefits received when their salary was lower or they were not earning any money at all.
Do you know that the government can take your tax refund check to recover these "debts" without your prior knowledge or consent? This should NOT be allowed to happen.
Take this case study ( my own experience ). A mother takes the whole tax year off on maternity leave and makes a low estimate of income as she does not expect to go back to work until the following tax year. Ten months later money is very tight and work asks her to come back part-time. She agrees and notifies Centrelink immediately. Centr elink stops payments (Fair enough). Two months later she does her taxes. Her tax check is taken because she "owes" over $2500 in Family Tax Benefits overpayments because she earned more than her original estimate.
After ten months of struggling financially how is this affordable?
Why should we have to pay back Benefits received when we really needed them because our circumstances have changed?
How can we expected to plan our lives a year in advance and why should we be penalised for saving them money by going back to work?
Thousands of honest Australians are in debt because THE SYSTEM DOESN'T WORK.
If you or someone you know has been affected by this system I urge you to sign this petition or email Senator Kay Patterson and maybe we can make a change that will benefit all Australian families.
I am making this petition in hopes that it will generate enough signatures so that RARE will please make a Star Fox Advance game for the GBA. Many people would love to see this come out for the GBA and it would be definitly worth buying.
7. Rerelease Star Ocean on GameBoy Advance
Star Ocean is the kind of game that only comes along once. If it's sequel is any hint to the series' greatness, then we all missed out horribly when Star Ocean was not released in the USA.
Hundreds of people work sleepless weeks, devoting their time to cracking the ever-troublesome chip that keeps the Star Ocean ROM from being emulated properly.. but there is an easier, more profitable solution.
With the advent of the GBA, any company can easily rerelease or port a classic title from the SNES to the GBA with relative ease, and they stand to gain alot from it.
Enix of America, we beg of you -- release Star Ocean for the GBA!
