Japanimation

Detective Conan brings one of Japan’s most popular anime series to Wii this month - peep the reviewhere. And we’ve already had the obvious fighting games based on Naruto and Bleach, as well as a swashbuckling adventures with the pirates of the popular One Piece and, uh, a Fist of the North Star pachinko game.

These games got us thinking about other classic pieces of Japanese animation that we’d love to seein videogame form,and how they might work. Whether or not any of them ever turn up, it’s worth checking out the original source material - hopefully you won’t be disappointed by this lot.
