MMM Fate/stay night was garbage the original anime and Unlimited Blade Works wasn't great either (Though UBWs animation/fights were amazing). But i will give it credit for spawning one of the best anime's Fate/Zero. A couple of these i definitely wouldn't go as far as to call them great.

I don't think you can say Disgaea got an anime because it was great, it's sales aren't even impressive, 1.7 in 8 years with several entries. There are plenty of games that have gotten anime adaptations like DRAMAtical Murder and Amnesia even though neither of those sold well.

Sssssht! We don't talk about the 2006 FSN anime. It never happened, capishe?

The main problem with the FSN animes as a whole is that each adaptation is just 1/3 of the complete story. The 3 routes need to be adapted so that they can be judged as a whole.

Come on, how can you miss the Fatal Fury and Street Fighter animated movies? The 80's and 90's were chockful of great anime adaptations of video games which in my opinion, had much better quality than their modern counterparts.

Persona 4 sucked overall as a persona game. The only reason it became popular because it catered to weeaboos. It seems there are no more good writers around. Its funny because Persona 2 has an amazing story, but it didn't catch on as it was very serious and didn't cater to the aforementioned demographic.

Ignorant you have become,and hatred flow thru you and this is why you failed. The irony is that Persona 1 and 2 writer is doing his own persona style game called Caligula and I see that he borrow a lot from Persona 4, and is like persona 4 but it n steroid.

@Featuring_Dante

What a Ignorant comment.

donwel2944d ago

Actually Persona 4 got 2 animes. 1 for P4 and 1 for P4G.

Kaneki-Ken2943d ago

P4G is bad, while the original was awesome.

Nobody asked but nice of you to write an article trying to convince yourself of that.

At the end of the day Atlus/Sega can put Persona on whatever platform they want. Their business and their choice.

Neonridr949d ago (Edited 949d ago )

I mean techincally there are Persona games on Switch. Just not the core series. That being said, sales would definitely benefit from the Japanese market Switch owners if they ever decided to put them on there.

Muigi949d ago

They’re right it needs another Earthbound.
