It depends on price and other factors…

Too soon to me is inextricably linked to cost and backward compatibility. If it’s a free/cheap upgrade for existing owners, go nuts. If you’re bringing it to a new platform with graphical enhancements, sure. If it’s for a new console that’s not backward compatible with the last generation, fine.

But we’re already at a point where risk-averse studios are often betting on sequels and remakes for guaranteed low-risk sales. That’s a magic trick that only works so many times before you start to piss off your audience. – Stackduckets

Assume I have current-gen consoles in my entertainment center (which I currently do). Can I play the game in question on those consoles? If yes, then I probably don’t need a remaster. Right now, that means if it was released on PS4 or Xbox One I don’t really need a remaster. But if I have to dig an older console out of storage, then by all means remaster it, or at give me an emulated collection- PS3, 360, Wii U, or older. – Optimus_Mike

Remaster/port to any platform that can’t play the original release, remake roughly three console generations later (Or rather when the tech is sufficiently more advanced that you can do something much more impressive/different than a remaster could do.) – Layn
