Zelda

 

[Plasma]

Not based on the actual game but a TV show about Rapture in Bioshock before it goes to shit could be cool.

Star Fox
Shovel Knight
ARMS
Gravity Rush

 

[SOLDIER]

please make an anime as cool as this box art

I would like to emphasize that any series based on an old videogame property should also follow the timeframe of said property.

I wouldn't want Ninja Gaiden to be modernized: we already have the last few games for that. I would want this series to feel like an 80's ninja movie, from the music to the clothing to the filters. Same thing as my Rondo of Blood example above.

Yeah, man, Dark Souls would be gr-

wait, is that Dark Souls? That better not be some WoW thing....

 

[pixelation]

Zelda.

This.

 

[Xbro]

Fire Emblem Genealogy of the Holy War.

Already happened, I think.

Come on people, be creative. Don't just shout out franchises. Which Metroid would you want adapted? Does Starfox stick with his original crew or is Krystal part of the team? What animation studios or styles are involved?



I'm kind of amazed you took the time to reply to tell us how much you don't care.

Thats old. Was not on netflix. I posted what I want to see as a series on the Netflix platform which allows for greater freedom and expression than normal traditional television. That there has been other anime from the series mentioned is completely irrelevant.

 

[SOLDIER]

Actually, I think it'd be AWESOME if they go back and redub the show in the same way as a modern Dragon Quest game (British voice actors and modern localization). It'll never happen, but still ;_;

Speaking of stuff that'll never happen. I still love the idea of a live-action Zelda series with the creatures and makeup done by the Jim Henson Creature Shop. It's clear they love Nintendo, and I think if anything else they would do great work.

Zelda would simultaneously be the easiest and most difficult game to adapt.

The setting is there, the characters and creatures are there. You can easily make something grand out of it.

But the problem is Link. People will debate endlessly over whether Link should speak or not, and if they choose the latter option you know that everyone is going to argue about the voice.

Rise of Ganon is what I'm aiming for: his rise from a Gerudo child to the eventual demon king. Like God of War, only several steps below on the sex and violence.

Interstate '76!!!!

Please, Netflix!

 

[Yoshimitsu126]

Legend of Zelda. Have to start with Ocarina of Time. Not sure how Link would work of if Navi will have to speak for him like Afro Samurai.

 

[woopWOOP]

STARFOX

The team taking on various mercenary jobs sounds pretty perfect for an episodic format.

Bonus points if it's the Starfox 2 crew. Krystal can join later.

Honestly, what I've been hoping for is Nintendo officially endorsing A Fox in Space, and giving the guy in charge a bigger production studio to make the episodes happen.

I keep waiting endlessly for the second episode and wonder if he'll manage to get it done.

 

[ShinNoNoir]

I've always wondered how well the story of

could be adapted into an animated series.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

reviving captain n and putting high quality production and better care for the properties they add in would be cool as well

 

[SOLDIER]

God yes.

Does it become a modern reboot, or does Kevin lose his shit when he discovers the Nintendo 64 dimension?

 

[BennyBlanco]

Deus Ex
Soul Calibur
Elder Scrolls

 

[wwm0nkey]

You know what? That would work too

 

[feel]

Overwatch immediately comes to mind after that recent anime short. I love that world/lore.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

God yes.

i mean go nuts have him cross over with everything as long as i can get him into maniac mansion land and shadowgate land then everything else is icing on the top

 

[DrunkShogun]

Wouldn't mind a zelda or kid Icarus.
A more ambitious one would be a series based on the team ico trilogy.

 

[LordofPwn]

Overwatch
Final Fantasy VII
Zelda
Metroid
Nier: Automata

Those are my top 5

 

[megalowho]

I'd watch a Psychonauts animated series in the Williams Street style. Tim as executive producer and Erik Wolpaw as lead writer. Could retell the first game in anticipation of the sequel or just tell standalone stories.

 

[Masterspeed]

If they started with Castlevania, I'd like another Konami adaption

I think it would transfer perfectly over into an Anime series.

 

[MrS]

Zelda.

Spoiler:

Spoiler

Link saves the princess in the end

 

[keltickennedy]

Tenchu.

 

[wrestleman]

Goofy Crash Bandicoot saturday morning cartoon kind of deal. They teased it in the Skylanders show and Activision Blizzard's in bed with Netflix so make it happen.

 

[Castef]

Mmmh...

A Bioshock series would be great. Both animated or live action.

Also, a Zak McKracken tv series by the people who made Dirk Gently, please.

Last but not least, something based on Titanfall would be great.

 

[Sevket-Erhat]

God of War
Metal Gear Solid

 

[SKINNER!]

I think it would transfer perfectly over into an Anime series.

or you could just watch the Lethal Weapon movies.


Metroid would be pretty good.

 

[Vyrance]

Dead Space
Mass Effect

 

[Stiler]

Would love to see any of them.

I think Sanitarium/Gabriel Knight would be great with a live action adaptation.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Kings field or ninja gaiden

 

[TheExecutive]

I know this isn't what the OP is talking about but I misread the title as what Netflix show would you like to see in a video game and realized that I would love to see a studio take a stab at a Stranger Things video game.

 

[GrayDock]

Metal Gear hands down.

And I think Chrono Trigger would be nice too, with a all the ends as options, like episode 1, 2 ,3, 3F, 4, 5, 5F, etc. I'm dreaming, I know :/

 

[Booker Dewitt]

Bioshock with Gore Vebrinski directing.

 

[Adobe]

would kill a cow for Alan Wake and/or Last of Us adaptations

 

[GavinUK86]

Not based on the actual game but a TV show about Rapture in Bioshock before it goes to shit could be cool.

The novel was really good so all they'd have to do is adapt that.

I would love a Deus Ex series. Set it in the Denton era or the Jensen one. Both are good.

An easy one would be Alan Wake. That's begging for a TV series.

 

[LKSmash]

Mass Effect trilogy (just pick an ending)
KOTOR
GTAV
RDR

 

[geflo]

 

[2+2=5]

Castlevania looks good because it's a good looking dark anime, so i'm not a fan of wasting that talent for some coloful games like zelda for example, something dark and twisted would be better, like this:

or silent hill

 

[decoyplatypus]

I'd play the heck out of a Kimmy Schmidt RPG.

This was my first thought too. I don't really need any adaptations going the other direction.

 

[Speely]

Shadowrun (pretty much based off any of them)

 

[marmoka]

Zelda
Shin Megami Tensei
Mother
Sonic (series like Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, we need Momma Robotnik back)

Am I the only one here seeing Goku and Chichi there?

 

[Gitaroo]

Ys

 

[PushingButtons]

I watched the first episode of Castlevania this morning and during I realized how badly I'd want a series based on Bloodborne.

 

[Kalor]

Since the Castlevania announcement I've been thinking a lot about that Zelda rumour. It'd be a great match for an anthology series with different Links over the years. Other than that maybe Ys. Can't think of a lot of shows that would work well.

 

[Stairouais]

Parasite Eve would be cool.

 

[SprachBrooks]

CATHERINE!!!

 

[Dark Ninja]

Zelda
It works really well for Anime or TV can easily change protagonists/companions every season covering one of the game's story and themes.
