Company of Heroes. Sounds wierd, I know, but it could be done. Difference is that it isn't an RPG, but a MMORTS. I don't know how to tell it in words, but I allready have an idea.
What happens when you log off? Do your troops etc just stand there?

Metroid.
Make your own space bounty hunter, explore planets, kill stuff, get money, buy weapons, pimp your suit, pimp your spaceship, maybe meet Samus along the way.
That would be
awesome
.
EDIT: I've had this idea for a while, so I'll go ahead and flesh it out some:
You start by making your character, choosing your race and gender(if applicable). Your race would determine the style of your suit/powers. Then you customize your suit and jump into the game.
I can imagine 2-3 main game aspects: PvE(questing and dungeons), PvP(arena-like stuff), and maybe Space Combat.
Quests would take the form of Missions. You start out doing simple-ish stuff, then you buy your own spaceship to cruise around the galaxy. Your ship would have a computer that you accept missions through.
Many missions would have you exploring the underground caves of planets, space pirate bases, haunted space stations, etc. These could function like WoW's instanced dungeons that you could solo or bring friends with. Fulfilling missions nets you money, experience, and weapon/ship upgrades.
Fighting style differs with style of weapons you use. Use blades/fist weapons for melee, arm cannons/whatever for ranged combat. You could gain proficiency with weapons to use stronger weapons that you purchase.
Levels could be applicable...your Level would determine the amount of health you have, and what abilities you learn, like Space Jumping, Speed Boosting, etc. Some of these abilities would be required for certain dungeons/areas.
As far as visual style, you would be in third person while in space, then switch to FPS mode in dungeons a la Metroid Prime. But 3D graphics in a 2D scrolling format could work too.
That's pretty much what I got so far, I'll stop now.

Mario Brothers?
What about, more specifically, Mario Party? An online party game, basically.
Sonic might be a stretch for an MMO.
If it were a Racing MMO, it could work. Make your own animal character and race on tracks against other people or Time Attack kind of stuff.

But seriously, Call of Cthulhu would make a great mmorpgWin.
