Which really sucks, because in the hands of a capable game dev team and a deadline that isn't rushed to try and line up with a premiere date or whatever, the Avatarverse work work wonderfully in video game form. Whether as some sort of fighting game, or action-adventure or action-RPG, or hell, a pro-bending sports game. Hell, video games could be an awesome storytelling tool to explore other time periods in the setting and the adventures of previous Avatars. I mean, we've got a full 10,000 years between Wan and Korra, I doubt the events in the TV series are the only interesting things that have happened in that span!
Pokemon video games are good. and frankly, I would love to see an Avatar game that explored the history of other Avatars. Or, better yet, an online Avatar MMORPG! you could start by choosing your element and stuff. and it could be similar to Elder Scrolls Online in that it explores history and lore of the Avatar Universe. It would be a great way to continue the franchise, even after the end of its TV era.
Except pokemon games were made first. They're not tie-ins, they're the sourse material.
