A Yakuza movie would be hilarious.

They already made one in 2006. It's a bit... weird. Certainly a movie of all time. And it shares it's name with the western release of yakuza 7 (Yakuza: Like a Dragon).

On the plus side, the full movie has definitely not been uploaded to youtube in it's entirety, so you definitely couldn't watch it right this moment for free.

What the fuck. I just scrolled through a few scenes and seen a guy shooting cunts with a shotgun, someone beating a masochist to orgasm and someone getting uppercutted to death

To be fair, that does sound like the game

Battle toads the movie confirmed

Golden Axe could make for a really great, or a really terrible movie. If they went with the campy D&D movie style with some heartfelt homages to Conan the Barbarian and Red Sonja thrown in I think they could pull it off.

I'd put the Kung Fury -crew on that, but considering the size of Sega, they probably want something family friendly and sanitized, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

Alright, what if we had a movie based solely on the Dreamcast version of the game Seaman? And also made it a psychological horror like that game is?

HOW ABOUT YOU FUCKS JUST GIVE ME BACK THE CHAOS

Inb4 we get a really shitty Jet Set Radio movie that bombs hard and ruins any chance we had of getting a third game.

At least Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a good spiritual successor.

I can only hope that I get revived when I'm that age.

Phantasy Star in the style of Guardians of the Galaxy

I am so ready for a Space Harrier movie.

I just really hope they select games that have a good story or even better have a great story that and attach it to some IP that has very little storyline. People come for the IP but stay for the story. Unfortunately they'll probably just pick the game with the largest fan base, attach some well known actors to it and then cram a bunch of nostalgic references into it and call it a day. Especially since the success of sonic means a lot of money will be sunk into it and a lot of suits will try to push dumb shit through.
