I've always thought Ruby and Sapphire were the worst of the series but again I'm likely one of the oldest people snooping around the thread as I was 11 when Red and Blue were new . After Gold and Silver , Ruby and Sapphire seemed like a step backward. So to be honest I don't really have a huge need for it. I was excited when Gold and Silver were made again though.
I generally think the same, however, I see the possibility of a remake (or even better a new adventure in Hoenn) as redemption of sorts for RSE (or just Hoenn).
