Video Games That Should be An Anime

There was an "Anime that should be Video Games" in the Gamer Section, so I figured this would work here.

Xenogears would work the best, IMO. If it was an anime it would be my favorite Mech. I personally like this way more than Xenosaga.

Chrono Trigger would work out great as well as the first Grandia. Grandia II would do okay at best.

I was going to bring up Star Ocean, but that already happened.

Well, I reckon I'll say it before anyone else does: Zelda. There was an American cartoon based on the games back in the 80s, but that... never really took off.

You're excused.

Oh, and while I'm at it... I would absolutely LOVE to see Phoenix Wright animated.

I'd like to see Sailor Moon: Another Story made into an anime movie, preferably longer than an hour. :lol:

Well, I find it a little hard to say this should be done for any series; let's face it, things adapted from video games tend to be abysmal (with the exception of Gungrave).

Two words:

Legend. Of. Zelda.

Okay, so maybe that's not two words. But, I meant two words within a margin of error of +/-2 words.

Joking aside, I really do think this game would make one incredible anime. Even I, a self-proclaimed gaming illiterate, have seen enough to know that I would follow this show devotedly if it were ever release.

i say zelda, KH or FF..they already made a movie for FF but still seeing as how the game series continues to grow i think they could make a nice little series out of it. as for KH..they already have a manga so why not make it an anime also?

Front Mission 3. Best game ever...It would also make a great anime OVA.

Holy goodness, Metal Gear Solid. Get, like, Kojima to write it, and Anno or Kon to direct it, and have Production IG do the animation in a similar fashion to Stand Alone Complex, and you'd have a flippin' masterpiece.

Well, I'm probably going to regret saying this, but no. :sweat:

In the Zelda American Television show, this is the most treaured line.

Zelda: You should`ve saved me faster (or some complaint similar).
Link: WELLL, EXCUUUUUUUUUSSSEE MEEEEEE, Zelda.

My, my -- lots of Zelda anime wannabe fans! (That didn't come out right. :lol: ) Seriously, though, you may be interested to know that many years ago Nintendo Power published within its pages a multi-issue manga based on A Link to the Past. ^_^ *gets run over by screaming fan people and such*

A Zelda anime might be cool, but it just wouldn't work. Link speaking? Never!

Aside from Metal Gear Solid, God of War would make a spectacular anime, in the same kind of way Berserk is.

If a Zelda cartoon almost worked, then a Legend of Zelda Anime would definitely work!

This was/is one of my favorite games of all time! In fact, it's the ONLY video game I would even consider playing now (I'm not much of a gamer--no PS2 for me thanks!)

The Legend of the Dragoon for the original Playstation. It's a four disk game that I absolutely love! Anyone remember it?

Guilty Gear needs to be turned into a full length anime, done in the same art style as the Opening for GGXX.

I swear that would have so much potential as an anime.

Legend of Dragoon would make a decent anime, but they would have to switch to a different artstyle.

smash up

Chrono Cross...eh..

If they rewrite the characters. With 40 characters, I see no room for character developement. Chrono trigger would work a lot better.

Theres's an anime of FF called "Last Order", but I heard we not getting it here in teh U.S. (sobs). I think Dynasty Warriors should be an anime to (wink).
