I noticed that many NES games are inspired by movies or something different. For example "Super Mario Bros." has elements of "Alice in Wonderland" (the mushroom that lets you grow), "Metroid" is somehow based on "Alien", "Castlevania" is of course a hommage to all the classic vampire and monster movies and "Contra" uses much inspiration from "Predator", not only on the cover:   Who knows more examples? (Of course, no games that are officially based on movies, like "Star Wars" or "A Nightmare on Elm Street".)

i've heard the Legend of Zelda is somewhat based off the movie Legend. i've never seen the movie so i can't say for sure.

That was freakyI'm not aware of any examples, but i'm sure most games are influenced by outside factors, most notably films.

Don't forget, RAmbo, and Contra. yeah , look on the contra cover art, the yellow head thingy in the center looks almost excactly like the aliens head in "alien"
