Wich Games that don't already have a Anime/Movie or Manga/Comic Adaptation would deserve one in your Opinion,wich franchise would highly benefit from that wich game that may have been long forgotten would rise from the ashes trough that.Wich stories could be further explored and fleshed out trough such thing ?
 
I would be happy for these titles: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel, Kingdom Hearts, Legend of Zelda or Nier Automata, Monster Hunter would certainly look good as an anime.
TLOZ, Monster Hunter and Kingdom Hearts already have manga, the TLOZ ones are actually really really good too.
 
Honestly after watching certain YouTuber videos about Last Bible series and playing it myself.

If that thing get a re-adaptation of any kind, it would good, because man the Story kinda good.
And if re-adaptation existed and it proves to be a good thing, who knows maybe Atlus would remake that thing.

Win for me.
 
This might look like my obsession, but both Xenogears and Chrono Cross would be great as anime series. If done well, obviously ::star-war
 
I know that chances are more towards to be a huge mess, but I kinda wish for a Metroid live action series. Throw some atmospheric setting, some political background/subplot based on the Prime games and it could be a scifi masterpiece.
 
A Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey anime adaptation.
I mean, Redux has a freaking anime intro, and the game also has a manga, so It could work as an anime as well.
 
Eternal darkness, D, cold fear..
 
Kurohyou needs another shot.
 
I wish we could get Famicom Detective Club anime adaption since it`s my favorite game and I love it very much.
I would not mind Dragon quest XI S anime adaption with main characther have voice.
 
Eternal Champions. Yeah, yeah, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, etc, have gotten thiers. This one since Sega had already written out the lore for the characters.

I'd have said Golden Axe, but I'm already CRINGING at the thought of whatever abomination Comedy Central is getting ready to release later this year or next year. Golden Axe should be done like the Conan movies, with fantasy stuff played up to 11.

Mortal Kombat is such preemo shonen anime material, the fact there is not one is insane.
 
I honestly don't see why not all of them could have an adaptation but in my opinion they should do it focusing on pleasing the fans of the game and not people outside the medium.

And in many cases live action would not be ideal, but rather CGI.
