A lot of video games now adapt to cinema like cuphead getting a show,fnaf and mario getting movies.And I would like to Know what video games that deserve to be adapt into movies/series.Tell me

The Portal games have an official comic that make a good short series.

The videogames movies took more strength since from the 2010s:

(Tron is not an example from this picture, but you already understand).

Ocarina Of Time has already had a couple indy films and some animated web-sieries adaptations, but none of them did it justice. I'd be happy to see a proper high-end minisieries come from it.

Edit- After some more thought, Dungeon Defenders would make a fun movie. It's ripe with potential, as long as the creators of the game have nothing to do with it.

Allow me to make unpopular opinion here, movie based on games are usually bad. The reason is because the movie can't convey the experience player would get from playing related game.

  So if you insist on having a game adapted into movie/series, IMO the best games for that would be story heavy games.

No I Get it that's why i'm asking in the first place

I think that's generally where film adaptations from videogames go wrong, the reason they frequently go bad. Industry in a classist society is a naturally talent-prohibitive system. When a videogame with a story that demonstrates talent has a film made from it, there is a chance adjacent to zero that any talent will be involved in the creation of the film. As for talented film writers and designers, t won't matter if the game is story-heavy (like Ocarina of Time) or not (like Dungeon Defenders).
