Anime Video Games

I was wondering what kinds of anime video games are there out there. Sure I know in Japan they have tons, and many anime series are actually based on the games, but what about in the rest of the world?

Anything you'd recommend?

Right now, sinc eI have GameCube, there aren't too many games that are anime related for the system, since most anime games are PRGs. But the future doesn't look too bleak. I know of Tales of Symphonia, which has a very cool look to it.

Another I heard about was One Piece: Treasure Battle.

Ok, so not exactly any information on it there, but there's some if you look hard enough around the web. ^_^

Fire Emblem perhaps? Though that's old, like SNES if I'm not mistaken...I'm not sure if they made a newer GB/GBA yet for it.

Allow me to stir up everyone's memory:
Time Gal: Sega CD (MegaDrive)
And there was another one (either for the Sega CD or TurboGraphix 16/ Turbo Duo system) based off of Space Adventure Cobra

Both were released here in the states.

As for something more modern?
Skies of Arcadia has that Anime feel and is a damn great RPG to boot. Good luck finding it though. Been discontinued.

The Inuyashi fighting game is for PS1 (seen it at Bestbuy and other fine retail stores). Budokai is coming for GCN, with new cell-shaded graphics,
but then again, Budokai 2 is going to be released at the same time on PS2 (great marketing there to screw Nintendo).

Of course .hack on PS2 (DUH!!!)

Yu-gi-ho is coming to the cube. (My cool idea for this is to link up with the GBA and have the GBA act as your "hand" while the Cube acts as a playing field similar to the show.)

That enough or do you want more?

I just saw a Yu Yu Hakusho game for GBA. Looks pretty good.

And who could forget Street Fighter!

Not to mention all the Pokémon games! 0_0

It seems they make a lot of anime games for GBA... Hmmm...
