Top 10 TV Shows Based On Video Games
Pokémon, abbreviated from the Japanese title of Pocket Monsters and currently advertised in English as Pokémon: The Series, is a Japanese anime television series, which has been adapted for the international television markets. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 1, 1997, in the United States ...read more. I liked it up until the 4kids voice actors left. I didn't like the change in voice actors. It started getting better eventually, but Team Rocket still has terrible voice actors (especially Meowth, his voice is so irritating.). Black and White was awful, but X & Y managed to bring me back to the show. Then the Alolan stuff happened and I hated everything about it. I don't like any of the characters from that region. I miss Ash's old companions (except for Iris and Cilan).
Best show based on a viseo game. take my top10:
10:Super Mario World
9:Pac Man and the Ghostly Adventures
8: Angry Birds Toons
7: Yokai watch season 1
6: Rabbids Invasion
5: Kirby Right Back at Ya!
4: Eartworm Jim
3:Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog
2: Super Mario bros Super Show
1: Pokemon
Trust me. it is amazing!
After awhile a stopped watching it, it was boring and not enough action, then I started watching Mario and what not
How is Ash still 10 after 23 years.
Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, known in Japan as Hoshi no Kirby, is a Japanese anime series created by Warpstar, Inc. So many memories of watching this show. It also had some really good life lessons for kids and was still action-packed and funny. Hopefully all of the episodes get released on DVD someday.
I liked it, but it's not near as good as the games. Plus, a lot of the characters are portrayed inaccurately. Especially King Dedede, since he's an absolute sadist in this show.
No this cartoon was horrible! you get bored about 5 minutes into the first episode!
My favorite video game anime.
Possibly the most underrated cartoon of all time.
Nostalgic and good.
The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! is an American television series, conceived by Andy Heyward, produced by DIC Animation City, and distributed by Viacom Enterprises in association with Nintendo, airing during 1989 from 4 September to 1 December. That's Mama Luigi to you, Mario!
Theme song stuck in my head.
Super Mario World is an American animated musical comedy television series loosely based on the Super NES video game of the same name. I watched this show, it was actually entertainingly mediocre. I could watch this all day!
Very lighthearted, and also funny. The best episode is Mama Luigi.
One of the first Video Game Based shows. Still one of the best.
Sonic X is a Japanese anime television series created by TMS Entertainment and based on the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series published by Sega. Aside from Chris and Cream, great show. I'd like to see a reboot with Silver, Blaze, and Mighty in it.
Such an underrated show. Pure nostalgia for me.
Great show, needs a game for it, and a reboot.
Airing in Japan in 2003, F-Zero: GP Legend is an anime series based on Nintendo's racing video game franchise of the same name. The show centers around futuristic racing competitions on various planets. Though it was adapted for international audiences, the series was not as successful as its video game counterpart and was eventually cancelled. I only watch anime dubs, so I'm hoping there's another dub coming, because there is no way I'm watching the 4Kids dub.
Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures, also known as Pac-World, is an American/Japanese/Canadian computer-animated comedy-adventure television series featuring Namco's classic video game character Pac-Man. Are you crazy? This show is terrible!
Donkey Kong Country is a Canadian/French computer-animated television series. It is based on the Nintendo franchise Donkey Kong as portrayed in the Donkey Kong Country video game series by Nintendo and Rare.
This one is better than SMBSS and Super Mario World. Great storylines, great songs, and everything. Oh and Ludwig has the most iconic laugh in the Mario franchise.
Pretty decent show. Sure, it's a bit cheesy but still can be humorous. One of people's biggest criticisms with this show is Link being able to talk (and being sarcastic), but I think the people who made this show did it fairly well; and I do give props to Jonathan Potts. He was a good voice actor for Link.
Hey! Excuse me, princess!
Sonic Boom is a computer-animated television series, produced by Sega of America, Inc. and Technicolor Animation Productions in collaboration with Lagardère Thématiques and Jeunesse TV, respectively for Cartoon Network, Canal J, and Gulli. This has got to be my favourite video game-based TV show. It's charming, funny, and has some genuinely smart satirical moments at times.
Sure, not every episode is a hit, but there's more than enough to recommend here.
It's awful. The voice acting is probably the worst thing about it (aside from Mike Pollock, he's amazing). Sticks was an unnecessary character, and she is so damn annoying.
Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, usually abbreviated AoStH, is an animated series that was based on the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series.
Divided into cartoon segments (Donkey Kong, Q*Bert, Frogger, Pitfall and Donkey Kong Junior). By the time season 2 aired, Donkey Kong and Q*Bert were joined by Space Ace (created by famed animator Don Bluth) and Kangaroo. Sadly, Saturday SuperCade was canceled due to the video game crash in 1983. Several years later, Mario came back to television alongside his brother Luigi in Super Mario Bros. Super Show but Donkey Kong had his own cartoon: Donkey Kong Country (based on a Super Nintendo game of the same name).
Pac-Man is an American/Japanese animated television series based on the popular arcade game and produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and DIC Entertainment. It aired from 1982 to 1984 on ABC. I love this show. It should be #1
