Because my First Game Based on an Anime that I played is this one:
Porque mi Primer Juego Basado de un Anime que yo Jugué es este:

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 (GameCube, 2004)

Naruto: Clash of Ninja for the Gamecube! >:D As soon as I found out about the save file thing I immediately cleared the game and got a copy of Clash of Ninja 2!
Naruto games are not bad for the GameCube but my favorite is the 4 for its content and mechanics but the story mode is very short but it is a great game too.

while 4 was on Gamecube in Japan, it wasn't in the US. ^_^' the anime didn't catch up over here yet. What happened was around when I graduated high school in 2007, Naruto started releasing multiple volumes of manga at a time to catch up to Shippuden in Japan. The anime got a 100 episode Naruto Hundo marathon on Toonami too. It caught up to save Sasuke after a short filler arc.

I understand the reason friend but the community made a kind of Isohack that looked like a translation of the game called Naruto: Super Clash of Ninja 4 but the menus are translated into English and some other part of the game but in the story mode it has hardly any text and there are only a few kanjis which makes it unreadable but it doesn't matter because the story mode of the game is very short anyway.

Little Nemo: The Dream Master / Nemo: Pajama Hero (NES/FC) based on Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland film, which was a joint project of Japanese and American animators.

For a more traditional video game based on Japanese manga, anime it was probably the time I spent a good chunk of cash to import Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 around 1995 or 1996 with a action replay cartridge and spring. Before it was localized in US. A few others afterwards were Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout and Ghost in the Shell (1997).

It's Pretty Good as an adaptation of a game based on a movie that is not so well known but playably it's not bad and has a mechanic of turning you into such an enemy although you have to throw candy at him to put him to sleep and find the 6 keys in each level to advance but the graphics are good and the music too although it's very Rockman/Mega Man for its composition but it's from Capcom Obviously.
 
I believe it was One Piece: Grand Battle for the Gamecube. It wasn't bad for a licensed game. Objectively not good but entertaining enough.
I understand you friend but Grand Adventure improved a lot compared to Grand Battle as the story mode although you can only play with Luffy but the rest is unlocked if you pass the story mode with Luffy, a slightly better gameplay, Graphically it is on par with its predecessor and the soundtrack too but I admit that it is the One Piece: Grand Adventure is my favorite One Piece game on a home console (PS2/GC).
 
Mystic Defender (or Kujaku Ō 2: Gen'eijō), SpellCaster's sequel (an ARPG or Action/Adventure game on Master System), is based on an anime/manga. Of course, I didn't know that at the time I discovered this game (Mega Drive/Genesis and it was in 1991/1992) ::winkfelix

I played it once and the game is not bad but it has a quite unique power system, especially the possibility of charging with any power but at the cost that you could be standing to do it but it is not bad.
 
Mystic Defender is a tough game. I never managed to finish it (my big brother, who was a very good gamer, struggled bu get through it.).. Having said that, I think it was a strange and gory game (as I was still a little kid, it scared me a bit). On the other hand, its atmosphere is memorable and the OST was really interesting.

I guess technically it'd be something like Yugioh: Forbidden Memories? Although that's more an original story based on characters from a manga.

Besides that I'd guess .hack// Infection?

The one in Yu-Gi-Oh! I played it 1 or 2 times and I was beaten by the first opponent in the game that I don't remember who it was.
 
Back then had no idea about Japanese and English but I was playing anyway lol. ::thumbsupwario
Same here! This was such a great game for the system. Played it in japanese with a friend. None of us spoke japanese, so we adlibbed the whole game. Great times.
Except the match against the Meiwa FC. That was SO much bs. Kojiro/Steve was relentless.

At first I learned what choice does and then eventually I figured what they mean. Since I played lots of Japanese games and found a dictionary for it eventually I found myself learning Japanese slowly. In the end managed to learn Japanese way before I could learn English lol.

So played the game after I learned Japanese enough to actually play the game coherently. Naturally couldn't beat the game before I learned Japanese back then but after I did learn enough I realized how stupid the decisions I made were back then trying to play it lol. Still the game was hard!!!
 
Dragon Ball Z Hyper Dimension on SNES
Good game by the way although the story mode is difficult to pass and also that I could not defeat the Majin Buu in the scenario where both are fighting in the air and also that I used the 3 hermit seeds and even then I could not defeat him and that's as far as I got and it is in the Japanese version obviously.

Oh hey, I owned that one too! It came out at a budget price so I had to pick it up. It's pretty much just Grand Battle but with more content. Definitely my favorite One Piece game until the Pirate Warriors spin-offs starting coming out. I'm a musou addict though so of course those would take the crown lol.

I understand you friend and also that the One Piece saga evolved a lot over the years both in manga, anime, video games, etc.
