Todd Howard says Bethesda won't be remaking the first Fallouts because 'some of the charm of games from that era is a little bit of that age' (www.pcgamer.com)

Rewriting the entire code for 2 25 year old games without changing the end result is a lot of work.

They'd also need to redo the voice acting for legal reasons like mods do and change some of the dialogue that wouldn't fly these days.

The voice acting yes, but the dialog shouldn't be changed.

Keeping the low INT female chosen one dialogue with Myron or half of San Francisco would probably start a shitstorm nowadays.

Who cares? Its a old game and it shouldn't be changed. Shure its not good that it was like that back then, but changing it would be ignorant of the past.
