History PragmaticAdaptation / VideoGames

** Animalism in the tabletop game is primarily used for wilderness survival and espionage. The Bloodlines version is also combat focused, with all but one spells being more akin to the Beckoning power of the source material. The last one (Spectral Wolf) would be at home as part of the Necromancy discipline, which isn't available to the player in Bloodlines.

* ''VideoGame/{{Cuphead}}'': While the game otherwise sticks to emulating classic cartoons to the T, the racist depictions of racial minorities is purposely avoided, [[ValuesDissonance and for good reason]]. The most that happens is giving Djimmi the Great clear Egyptian influences (when genies are Arabic), and that is terribly minor in comparison while still being a possible throwback.

* ''VideoGame/SplinterCellDoubleAgent'', originally on Platform/Xbox360 and PC, received a sixth-generation version on Playstation 2, Xbox, and Nintendo Gamecube which is this due to console limitations. The gameplay and missions are entirely different, while the story is ''mostly'' the same except for two major character changes. Enrica's characterization completely lacks her [[AntiVillain sympathetic portrayal]] and the [[OfficeRomance romantic subplot]] between her and Fisher, creating somewhat of a plot hole when Fisher abruptly starts [[spoiler:desperately trying to keep Third Echelon from killing her in the final chapter]]. Jamie, on the other hand is given a far more [[UndyingLoyalty loyal]] and [[PunchClockVillain sympathetic portrayal]] rather than the FalseFriend[=/=]SoftSpokenSadist he was in the original, [[spoiler:which made a lot of people feel seriously bad when you have no choice but to kill him in this version.]]

* ''VideoGame/{{Arcaea}}'', a mobile RhythmGame that features in-app purchases for unlocking content and a recharging stamina system similar to other "free-to-play" games (in that the player can either let the stamina recharge over time or use microtransactions to instantly refill it), underwent a lot of tweaks for the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch port:

* The games in the ''Baker Street Kids'' series for UsefulNotes/AppleII have a lot of changes that differ from Literature/TheBible. For example, in the "God's Creation" segment of ''Early Heroes of the Bible'' (the first half of the Literature/BookOfGenesis), what we read here, with the omission of most of Genesis 2,[[note]]God created the heavens and the earth, then the animals, then He created a man and a woman; and He named the man Adam, who then named his wife Eve (for no apparent reason), before settling them in the Garden of Eden He had created[[/note]] differs from what is read in the actual Book of Genesis[[note]]God created the heavens and the earth, then He created a man, whom He named Adam, before settling him in the Garden of Eden He had created and telling him not to eat anything from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; He then created the animals for Adam to name before finally creating a woman from one of Adam's ribs; Adam then called her "woman", "for out of 'her man' this one has been taken" (Genesis 2:23c, NAB). Adam naming his wife "Eve" only occurred ''after'' the serpent had tricked her into eating the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil along with Adam, and they were all punished for it, with the woman being compelled to give birth to children in pain, which is why Adam giving her the name "Eve" means that she would become the mother of all the living (Genesis 3:20)[[/note]].
* ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaDraculaX'' for the SNES. Cutting the levels and playable characters back to fit the SNES hardware is acceptable, though [[ExecutiveMeddling legal issues]] meant Shaft was cut. And ''Vampire Killer'' for the {{UsefulNotes/MSX}}.

* Ports of PlayerVersusPlayer-based puzzle games to the UsefulNotes/GameBoy (and handheld systems of similar power) generally don't offer a direct take on the Player vs CPU modes of their arcade and console equivalents, either due to lack of processing power or simply the lack of real estate on the screen for two fields. Many of them instead attempt to offer a similar experience by tasking the player with filling a fluctuating gauge, meant to represent the opponent's field, while fending off occasional attacks. ''Pokémon Puzzle Challenge'', as well as the handheld ports of ''VideoGame/MagicalDrop'', ''VideoGame/StarSweep'', and ''Money Puzzle Exchanger'', are some of the games that resort to this. It is interestng to note that ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo'', which codified the competitive puzzle subgenre, never had to resort to a "false" AI opponent; even the first arcade game's [[PortingDisaster disastrous]] Game Boy port contains real AI.

* An early 1980s game example: The UsefulNotes/ColecoVision version of ''VideoGame/LadyBug'' replaced the arcade original's free game credit from spelling S-P-E-C-I-A-L with a BonusStage, since the home version didn't require quarters to play it. This is better than what reward you got for finding the diamond in the home versions of the follow-up game ''VideoGame/MrDo'': just 8000 points and a free trip to the next screen.

* Ports of PC or Xbox games to the UsefulNotes/PlayStation2 usually invoked this trope due to the system's technical limitations. For example, ''VideoGame/ReturnToCastleWolfenstein'''s [=PS2=] port had many of its levels split into shorter sub-levels, and sometimes completely redesigned, with the player mainly being confined to narrow corridors in contrast to the more open level design of the PC and Xbox versions. Though much less rare, this also occasionally happened in ports of games to the UsefulNotes/PlayStation3 and UsefulNotes/Xbox360, even ones from the previous generation; ''VideoGame/FarCry1 Classic'' had to have level transitions added halfway through several of the larger levels from the original PC game, and even then the game is known for crashing when you reach those transitions because even the cut-in-half maps are pushing the systems' limits.

* ''VideoGame/SplinterCellDoubleAgent'', originally on UsefulNotes/Xbox360 and PC, received a sixth-generation version on Playstation 2, Xbox, and Nintendo Gamecube which is this due to console limitations. The gameplay and missions are entirely different, while the story is ''mostly'' the same except for two major character changes. Enrica's characterization completely lacks her [[AntiVillain sympathetic portrayal]] and the [[OfficeRomance romantic subplot]] between her and Fisher, creating somewhat of a plot hole when Fisher abruptly starts [[spoiler:desperately trying to keep Third Echelon from killing her in the final chapter]]. Jamie, on the other hand is given a far more [[UndyingLoyalty loyal]] and [[PunchClockVillain sympathetic portrayal]] rather than the FalseFriend[=/=]SoftSpokenSadist he was in the original, [[spoiler:which made a lot of people feel seriously bad when you have no choice but to kill him in this version.]]

* ''VideoGame/YsIVTheDawnOfYs'' for the [[UsefulNotes/TurboGrafx16 PC-Engine]], released a month after ''VideoGame/YsIVMaskOfTheSun'' for the [[UsefulNotes/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem Super Famicom]], was produced by a different developer (Creator/HudsonSoft), had a significantly different story and gameplay, and is not part of Creator/{{Falcom}}'s canon, but is [[AdaptationDistillation generally regarded as the superior game]].

* ''VideoGame/CreedRiseToGlory'' is based on the Franchise/{{Rocky}} films generally, and more specifically on the film ''Film/{{Creed}}''. The game strips out almost everything from the film except the fights, adds more fights, and re-contextualizes the fights to make Donnie's development feel more like a steady climb to the top than a lucky underdog's story. It also turns the TrainingMontage into a series of microgames.

* ''VideoGame/SpiderMan2'': As opposed to adapting the "Spider-Man No More" arc that ''Film/SpiderMan2'' did as a result of his troubled relationship with Mary Jane, the tie-in game instead has Peter consider giving up his civilian life to focus as Spider-Man full time because of said relationship trouble (in-universe; out-of-it, probably because a player doesn't want to spend a good chunk of the game not actually being Spider-Man).

* ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines''. The limits of a video game (and the action-heavy elements expected from them) meant that the game needed to drop a number of systems, simplify others, and gear things more towards combat as a baseline. One example is with the Tremere, and the Tremere PC's use of [[BloodMagic Thaumaturgy]]. The Path of Blood depicted in Bloodlines is much different than the one in the source material, being more directly [[BloodyMurder martial]] than the [[ThePowerOfBlood multi-purpose powers]] in the original.

** Since there are no in-app purchases, song packs are unlocked either by paying Fragments, progressing in Story Mode, or reaching them in World Mode.

** Features that previously required an internet connection (Partner stats and skills and World Mode, for example) were made available even in offline play. The only thing you need an online connection for is updates.

* More of a technical limitation, but if anyone asks why ''VideoGame/ArmoredCore Formula Front'' has a very wildly different gameplay (simply designing and tuning a HumongousMecha's autopilot instead of ''directly piloting it''), it's because ACFF was released in PSP. See, the games before that were released in [=PS/PS2=], whose controllers had far more buttons than the PSP. Not knowing how to efficiently use the PSP's button layout, FROM decided to make it a game which require as little input as possible from the players. To seemingly prove their point, the [=PS2=] version of Formula Front does enable direct piloting of your mechs. It isn't until Armored Core 3 Portable that they finally figured out how to map the controls.

* All of the ''Videogame/MechWarrior'' first-person HumongousMecha [[MechaGame simulator series]], based on the turn-based ''Tabletopgame/BattleTech'' tabletop wargame are this to some extent.

* ''VideoGame/CreedRiseToGlory'' is based on the Franchise/{{Rocky}} films generally, and more specifically on the film ''Film/{{Creed}}''. The game strips out almost everything from the film except the fights, adds more fights, and re-contextualizes the fights to make Donnie's development feel more like a steady climb to the top than a lucky underdog's story. It also turns the TrainingMontage into a series of microgames.
* ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'' removes a lot of the mechanics from ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' (cover is near-nonexistent, though it was reintegrated for ''Dawn of War II'', and there's no RandomNumberGod) but keeps fundamentals like squads, weapon upgrades, and different armour types in order to better work as a video game instead of a tabletop one. By necessity the factions are vastly simplified, only having access to a relatively small amount of their units, as well as lacking the individual customisation of the sub-factions. In turn it creates a new Space Marine chapter, the Blood Ravens, as well as a bunch of new characters from existing groups, to tell its own story instead of trying to adapt anything from the existing, expansive ''[=WH40K=]'' lore. The result is a game that is generally well-received by the fans and gamers in general, but isn't so much an adaptation as it is just a small piece of the ExpandedUniverse.

* ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'' on the Ipod Touch. While it's highly simplified from the console/PC version (only 10 characters, reduced movelists, simplified controls, and lots and lots of contents removed), it manages to be a fun experience on its own right, despite the system not being fit for such a type of game.
* ''VideoGame/{{Astyanax}}'' for the NES has a completely different story than the arcade game it's loosely adapted from.

* ''VideoGame/VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines''. The limits of a video game (and the action-heavy elements expected from them) meant that the game needed to drop a number of systems, simplify others, and gear things more towards combat as a baseline. One example is with the Tremere, and the Tremere PC's use of [[BloodMagic Thaumaturgy]]. The Path of Blood depicted in Bloodlines is much different than the one in the source material, being more directly [[BloodyMurder martial]] than the [[ThePowerOfBlood multi-purpose powers]] in the original.

* The N64 version of ''VideoGame/QuakeII'' had its story changed from the original, and most of the levels replaced with all-new ones, which were generally shorter than the PC version's. The crouch function, hand grenades, and several enemy types were removed, the [[GatlingGood chaingun]] was {{nerf}}ed, and the submachine gun's recoil was reduced.
* The [=iPhone=] version of ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsOfThePatriots'' was stated to be this by WordOfGod. The original game had stealth elements, but when Konami playtested it they found that it was really tedious and distracting for a casual game. So Kojima Productions took over development themselves, concentrating on shooting-range stuff.
* A number of changes were made to the [[VideoGame/GoldenEyeWii Wii remake]] of ''VideoGame/GoldenEye1997'' plot to fit with the change in timeline to 2010. Most notably, 006's motivations are changed from getting revenge for Britain's betrayal of his Lienz Cossack parents (which would make him 71 in 2010) to anger over UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror and the Great Financial Meltdown, and how big banks made a killing while everyone else suffered. [[spoiler:Zukovsky is killed a couple dozen seconds after you meet him. After all, he does die in the films eventually, and it's not like they're planning on making a ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' game later.]]
** Even in the original game, a number of changes were done for the sake of making a more enjoyable game. At least a half of the game's content isn't in the movie, much more was altered.
* ''VideoGame/YsIVTheDawnOfYs'' for the [[UsefulNotes/TurboGrafx16 PC-Engine]], released a month after ''VideoGame/YsIVMaskOfTheSun'' for the [[UsefulNotes/SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem Super Famicom]], was produced by a different developer (Creator/HudsonSoft), had a significantly different story and gameplay, and is not part of Creator/{{Falcom}}'s canon, but is [[AdaptationDistillation generally regarded as the superior game]].
* The console adaptations of ''VideoGame/RainbowSix3'' have a completely different story and considerably different gameplay, although some of the locales from the PC version make an appearance.
* More of a technical limitation, but if anyone asks why ''VideoGame/ArmoredCore Formula Front'' has a very wildly different gameplay (simply designing and tuning a HumongousMecha's autopilot instead of ''directly piloting it''), it's because ACFF was released in PSP.

The most that happens is giving Djimmi the Great clear Egyptian influences (when genies are Arabic), and that is terribly minor in comparison while still being a possible throwback.
* ''VideoGame/MegaMan2AtariDeMake'': To emulate better the limitations of Atari, some level objects were changed. Instead of the Crash Lifts, there are moving platforms moving from left to right and with a pointer that spins from time to time and hurts. The Air Cheriots do not have a circular trajectory, but are moved through shots from the opposite direction Mega Man is standing on them and are separate from Kaminari Goros. Another important change is that there are no continuous screens.
* Ports of PlayerVersusPlayer-based puzzle games to the UsefulNotes/GameBoy (and handheld systems of similar power) generally don't offer a direct take on the Player vs CPU modes of their arcade and console equivalents, either due to lack of processing power or simply the lack of real estate on the screen for two fields.

* ''VideoGame/{{Arcaea}}'', a mobile RhythmGame that features in-app purchases for unlocking content and a recharging stamina system similar to other "free-to-play" games (in that the player can either let the stamina recharge over time or use microtransactions to instantly refill it), underwent a lot of tweaks for the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch port:
** World Mode no longer has the Stamina mechanic. Maps have been rebalanced accordingly.
** Since there are no in-app purchases, song packs are unlocked either by paying Fragments, progressing in Story Mode, or reaching them in World Mode.
** Many songs that were previously World Mode unlocks were made simple Fragment-based unlocks.
** The World Extend folder in the mobile version relies on a free/paid-hybrid model where players can either pay to unlock all songs in the pack or complete [[TemporaryOnlineContent temporary]] unlock maps. The Switch's port's solution is to just move the World Extend songs to the Arcaea folder and make them Fragment-based unlocks.
** Memory Archive in the mobile version consists of songs that can be unlocked with individual in-app purchases. These songs are instead made World Mode unlocks for this port.
** A new control scheme that uses traditional controllers was implemented, due to a mandate by Nintendo that all games for the system must be playable in TV Mode.
** Features that previously required an internet connection (Partner stats and skills and World Mode, for example) were made available even in offline play. The only thing you need an online connection for is updates.
* In the original PC release of ''VideoGame/DokiDokiLiteratureClub'', [[spoiler:you defeat BigBad Monika by going into the game's directory and deleting her character data]]. This obviously isn't possible on consoles, so when the game was ported to 8th and 9th generation consoles for the ''Plus'' UpdatedRerelease, [[spoiler:an in-game desktop is provided so you are still capable of doing her in]].
* A consistent part of the VideoGame/LegoAdaptationGame series is that all playable segments must have at least two characters present, both for the various puzzles and so that the DropInDropOutMultiplayer aspect is available at all times. Since most of the games are based on pre-existing story plots, and there are often times where only one main character is in a scene, when adapting those scenes things are slightly altered so that a second character ends up being there, even if the altered circumstances can get convoluted at times, such as Shagrat helping Sam fight Shelob in ''VideoGame/LegoTheLordOfTheRings'', only to apparently instantly forget Sam was there once the orc sees Frodo.

* Most ''Franchise/SamAndMax'' media, while most of the media is a bit LighterAndSofter than the original comics (well, until ''[[VideoGame/SamAndMaxTheDevilsPlayhouse The Devil's Playhouse]]'', of course), they've more or less had some pretty good games for quite a while now, demonstrating the dark comedy and wit that the series is known for.
