Well, maybe besides anime movies, but those don't really count. When people want a good video game movie, they mean hollywood. Japan's doing just fine on that count but they're niche. Very niche. Wreck it Ralph doesn't count either, as it's not an adaptation, it's a movie about video games instead.
It's great that it all came full circle. The first video game movie was Nintendo's, and it was awful. The first GOOD video game movie is also Nintendo's. and it's good. It seems this time Nintendo and the pokemon company were directly involved in the process.
Then there's the Sonic movie... That one is a long lost 90's video game movie, right down to 90's Jim Carrey and Gangster's Paradise. What's the plot? A portal opens up and Sonic comes to New York! Of COURSE!

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
