i think Doom would be a good animated series for HBO or Showtime. it has the potential for an animated series

I can't see it as anything but a limited 5-10 minute filler.
It would make a great filler though. No dialogue, just a lone space marine going apeshit on some demons, and collecting oversized keycards that are ironically shaped like human skulls until he can reach the last working shuttle and escape from mars (or its moons, or wherever the game took place).

Katamari Damacy. I'm thinking fifteen-minute or less segments where the various cousins do funny things.

Maybe Lost in Blue. Two teens stuck in an island and fight for survival. Though I don't know how long it would last.

A Metal Gear Solid animated series would be amazing (If done by the right studio). Perhaps they could focus on Big Boss' various exploits during the Cold War era. I'd dig that.

Castlevania, maybe?
No, I've got it!

What potential? You could fit the story on a bubblegum wrapper. The main character doesn't even have anyone to really interact with
Anyway, Guilty Gear

StarCraft or Warhammer 40k
But either one would have to violent and action-packed. No crap about the exploits of some special ops group that only kills a few guys at once. I want to see full scale battles, air units, space sieges, etc.
Hell, just hire the studio that made the awesome intro movie to Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War.

Super Mario Bros. needs a faithful animated adaption, as does Legend of Zelda.
Octomania is begging to be made into an anime.

Super Mario bros had too many, how about some new ones to think of.

Damn, you beat me to it. Castlevania would be awesome, I can already see the style being similiar to Vampire Hunter D. Good stuff.
Phoenix Wright would be comical.
How about...Resident Evil!

Well it does have a CGI movie coming soon, that is supposed to tie into game canon, so it would be neat.

Ain't that the one Warren Ellis is writing?
I guess we can forget the Simon Belmont from Captain N. Or Captain N in general, though it had its moments.
Psychonauts, please.

Ah yeah, that did have its moments.
Im hoping for the series that starred Soma Cruz in it, I think that would make a good one. Or having it revolve around the Symphony of the Night game.

Eggplant Wizard always cracked me up. Doubt it would have the same effect today.
Nevermind, I misread. Resident Evil has the CGI project coming out; I think Castlevania is anime or animated, but fer sure Warren Ellis is writing it.

It's called Resident Evil: Degeneration

Given Leon's look, this probably takes place sometime around RE4 or after it. From the look of the trailer Claire Redfield is involved too.
There's also RE4 Executor on You Tube. From what I hear, it was shown in Japan as a theme park ride.

Not sure if this one's canon or not, but it has one hell of a badass ending.

Yet none of them were faithful to the actual video games.

To be fair, I think they were about as faithful as one can get. I mean, a cartoon series based ONLY on the game would be as interesting as having you pubes plucked out with moldy tweezers. It would just be mario running through environments, stomping on things with an occasional "Lets-a-Go!" or "Ok!".

I'd much rather have classic Simon Belmont.

I think that Psi-Ops would make a good teenager/adult cartoon.
It was supposed to become a movie a year after it was made but nothing was done with it.
The game was pretty cool, it was for PS2.

Red Faction might make a good series. Part two, no. Wonder how part three would turn out.

The mario story has chanced over the years and can be a great series if they work on it.
I wpuld love to see a new mario series.
Others--
crash bandicoot--why didn't this come out in the 90s?
starfox
chronos trigger--japan got a movie but we got nothing.
