I don’t think they ever will simply because it lacks brand recognition and marketing is the only reason anything ever gets remade. But I thought about a remake as I was replaying it, and even if the original had sold well and lent itself to pre-existing awareness, it is so misconceived on the broadest conceptual level that there’s no real template for a remake to follow, it seems like it would require a complete overhaul. The story also has derogatory elements that Capcom would probably prefer no one is ever reminded of, although I guess the other remakes had so much sanded off of them that they would just completely remove that stuff.
