Galaxy Fraulein Yuna was a game before it enjoyed any anime releases, I believe.

As far as the other way around goes (PCE games based on anime), there were lots of them.  Most of them, like the Macross and Ranma games, are pretty obvious, but there were some obscure ones (Efera & Jiliora was based on a short anime film called Gude Crest).

Lol..I suppose I should have put more obscure anime, as Macross, and Ranma are easy ones.

Oh how could I forget :

it's not that I doubted it's existence, its that I don't care. I've had more than enough dragon ball for a lifetime as is.

Tengai Makyou ZIRIA
Ys IV

You can download videos of both on this page-

Ys I & II
Cosmic Fantasy

Bomberman eventually got a series that looks inspired by Bomberman '94's characters.


Wataru the game was released after the anime.

Just to clarify, there never was an anime based on Ys IV. They only made a promotional trailer for what it would have been.

I'll list some that I know of:

Were a game first:

Street Fighter II'
Y's (multiple games, and multiple anime)
Dragon Knight (series)
Tengai Makyou
Advanced V.G.
Bomberman (series)
Cosmic Fantasy (series)
Art of Fighting
Tokimeki Memorial
Wizardry

Were an anime/manga first:

Urusei Yatsura
Yuu Yuu Hakushou
Tenchi Muyo
Space Battleship Yamato
Cyber City Oedo 808
Ghost Sweeper Mikami
Dragon Ball Z (truly, it is the era's best DB game)
Patlabor
Macross (two games)
Blue Blink
Nadia
Yawara (two games)
Gunbuster (two games)
Wataru
Sailor Moon (two games)
Bubblegum Crash

Ranma 1/2 (three games)

Don't know what came first:

Princess Minerva

And there are a bunch of games based on live action stuff that still falls under the general "stinks like ota" blanket such as Godzilla, Gunhed, Kato and Ken, etc.

Pretty much every game.

Though it might not be anime, Finding Nemo was even based off Deep Blue.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

That is bull. Finding Nemo would kick Deep Blue's ass and sue you for such a slander.
