Is it the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon? Or is that considered good?

The straight-to-video Super Mario movie will for ever haunt my dreams... along with the Zelda TV show.

He mentioned that one in an Escape to the Movies once, and the approach was nowhere near as negative as some of the shows he just mentioned.

It's funny that, if you turned pretty much any one of those into an anime, it probably would have been better, because the WTF line is way lower than in the US.

For the record, the Zelda TV show RULED. My money would have been the OTHER sonic TV show, but maybe not...

No...not D&D.

I know what it is...so for those who don't, I can tell you in a spoiler tag, but I'll wait until someone actually WANTS me to tell. I actually saw that cartoon, and wondered why several things were done WRONG with the games used.

That's the 80's for you. People say anime is weird but they never pull creepy stuff like that... they pull other kinds of creepy stuff

I'd guess Arthur and the Knight's of Justice but that isn't based off of a video game to my knowledge and the picture is of a basketball not an American football

This may be due to the fact that I was like between 6 or so during the time, but I remember liking the sonic cartoon. Even though I never liked the games that much. Not gonna try and watch this now... I know it will suck in retrospect, nostalgia be damned.

I remember Darkstaklers, and then I remeber why I didn't get into the show. That kid was an idiot.

WHICH Sonic cartoon? I think there were two of them... one bad one, one good one. Least that's what I heard.

I liked the Pole Position cartoon. Of course, I was 7 at the time. Let's just say it doesn't hold up.

And sorry, Captain N was terrible. I actually preferred some of Nintendo's third-party franchises to most of its first-party ones, and I hated that whiny, self-important brat taking a crap on Megaman and Simon Belmont every Saturday morning. Even Megaman's shittiest weapons had more intrinsic value than Kevin.

It's mixed. It was a lot better than most cartoons of its era. But it had some problems. Read to near the end of this The Complainer is Always Wrong [http://www.povonline.com/cols/COL145.htm].

I think it's going to be the infamous Zelda cartoon.

Oh yeah, I remember the Basketball Playing Tire Sword Jacket Tomatoes! That was my favorite as a kid.
