It has been a few days since Netflix unleashed Castlevania, the four episode animated series that lovingly retells the story of Dracula's Curse. I had a good time with it and based on the reaction I've seen online, it seems like most people agree. It's an imperfect adaptation that has just the right level of gore and intrigue, and I'll definitely be watching more. The success of Castlevania has got a lot of people wondering if Netflix will continue replaying old school games for new show ideas. Could we possibly see Metroid, Ninja Gaiden or even Splatterhouse get the series treatment? Who knows. What I can tell you is that I have a list of games that definitely should NOT be adapted to television. I think you'll see what I mean. Featuring: Cool Spot, Virtua Fighter Kids, Balls 3D, Columns and more!
