Your favourite videogame cartoons?

Wing Commander Academy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bzEMITUq_w) was really good and as far as video game cartoons go it was one of the most faithful to the source material.

That actually looks really good. Did it run its course or was it cancelled too few episodes in?

I saw a mention of WCA (with a cartoon "roster" of pilots) on a WC fansite but I thought it was just something about the WC Academy game which I had played and known about, although I didn't remember it having any cartoon graphics.

I'm not afraid to say I enjoyed Saturday Supercade and AoSTH in the day. Captain N was ok too until I realized how absurd the character designs were. Come at me bro!

That would be mine. I used to pick up Mario and Zelda comics too. I have found memories of Lou Albano hosting that show with the Mario and Zelda cartoons.

I can't think of many other video game cartoon I've enjoyed, but I did like this live action Mortal Kombat series

Sonic the Hedgehog is definitely my favorite.
I love the "good" Sonic cartoon enough to casually refer to it as SatAM. The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog (the goofy one) is kind of fun too, but in a very different way. The Sonic anime OVA (aka "Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie") is fun too.

Earthworm Jim was great too. I would buy it on DVD in a heartbeat.

As much as I like the Sam & Max cartoon, I don't think of it as a video game-based cartoon. Sam & Max started out as comics back in the 80s. It's definitely a great series though!

That's all I can really think of as shows I would definitely list as favorites. I loved Mega Man when I was a kid, but I'm not sure if it would hold up to my embittered grown-up self. I should track that down on DVD.

Oh yeah! I used to get up early to watch that Mega Man cartoon. I enjoyed watching it on weekends. Unfortunately, in retrospect I'm pretty sure that it sucked.

It's not very long but it runs a full season and the final episode ends things in a satisfactory way.

I really enjoy Kirby's animated series.

I started watching the whole series of Sonic the Hedgehog SatAM and am enjoying it so far. I saw a few episodes of the show on VHS when I was small. Those tapes got a lot of play so I'm looking forward to seeing the other episodes.

From what I remember of Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie it was pretty good. It had good animation, good voice acting, and had Metal Sonic. I saw a few episodes of The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog on TV, but I don't remember shit about it. I've heard that it's pretty insane so I think I might like it. Sonic X, pleh!

When Fox Kids became the FoxBox, I watched the whole lineup and that's when I saw Kirby: Right Back At Ya! I have some pretty good memories of this show. I might pick it up on DVD. As an added note: it's weird to see Meta Knight helping Kirby.

I saw Sam & Max on Fox Kids and loved it. For years I had no idea there were games and comics to go along with this show.

They're all pretty awful.
