This a thread to try to convince Ea to re-release the Sims 1, and Sims 2. Here post why would you like them to re-release the games. Make videos and written posts. Maybe if we can get enough people it could become a reality.
I'd like to see them re-lease them simply because I miss them. I used to own all of TS1 and all the expansions for TS2 (no stuff packs) but I lost them all over the years during various home moves. I would gladly pay to have them on Origin or some other site if they needed just to have them convenient to download and work with Win10 so I don't have to mess around with it. I missed out on the TS2 UC when it was up because I was focused on a job change and another move.
I never had the chance to play TS1. I gotta try out the game where it all started! I couldn't imagine it being very difficult to get it going through origin.
Y'all, an HD remake of TS2 would quite possibly be (hyperbole incoming, brace yourselves) THE BEST THING THAT COULD EVER HAPPEN IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND, Signed!
I already own Sims 2 UC. But it would be nice to see them re-release both for everyone. My dream would be if they also updated them to address some compatibility issues, but I don't see them putting resources towards that.

Well technically it is. Wanting to play games that old on modern architectures can require a bit of computer trickery to get it running properly. But I'm sure EA can figure out a way 🤔
I agree. I especially miss the Sims 1 and its quirky humour. I would gladly pay for a complete collection on Origin (even though I already owned most of the packs years ago).
Keep in mind that they have released other games on Origin that are older than the Sims.
It would be useful if one of the Gurus/admins could let us know if a re-release is a possibility. If they made it clear it could happen, I think a lot more people would be signing petitions.
I would love for them to be released, even at least TS2, because I was unfortunately too young to experience those versions and missed later opportunities to snag them.

If memory serves, Grant was asked about doing a remaster of TS2 and he replied that there were no plans for it since content for TS4 is still being released. This was... maybe 2 years ago? He said something along the lines of: "We can either keep releasing content for TS4 or remaster TS2." Honestly, I'd rather see them remaster it since I never got to play it and people seem to agree, for the most part, that TS2 is the best in the series. Especially since it's clear no pack will fix TS4.
You're free to take this with a grain of salt since I found that post a long while back, back when I used to scan their twitters and I've no interest or time to search for it now.

I would actually like that too...

Maybe we should tagged them?
