Something I've been hoping for...
RE-release NFS High Stakes... but not like before... ON SMARTPHONES/TABLETS!!!
FF3 and GTA3 already available as a smartphone version, and VC coming out soon as well... EA and their mobile division can TOTALLY port the original High Stakes game onto Smartphones and Tablets...
also maybe to keep it current, update the car roster for the current models... I believe it's entirely possible to even make a direct port, as the mobile hardware is WAY MORE than capable of handling it... they can even HD-ise the graphics, and 3D models to make it even better...
if Asphalt can make a nice mobile racing game, why can't NFS?! besides, there already are Shift and Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted, mobile version... and they look great too! re-release High Stakes as a 'classic' and I'd buy it in a heartbeat!
