Like Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, and Secret of Evermore. Surely there are people who would like to see these games return. I know I'd like to see a new Chrono game for the 3DS.
They tried that with Chrono. They ported Trigger with all the features, a little bit more, and some nice DS interface to test the waters. Game did terribly.
Its a nice pipe dream, but these series leave such a legacy and expectation that its much safer to simply let them rest, to be their own legend, and to push their legacy into other titles.
Think of Bravely Default. Not all games do well with sequels. An rpg is there is tell its story. Once that has happened, its served its purpose. Its time to move on. That is why there were so many different titles back in the ps1 era. Xenogears, Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross (which though related is considered a different series), etc. etc. etc.
