It's definitely much more memorable as a TV show, no arguing that. But the fact remains, it was still a book series first. And it wasn't even a smalltime book series, it had a LOT of books to its name. I do think that you could potentially still use it as a history rep, but it's (willy) wonky because of that. You could potentially count it as a reverse situation to how I've used characters that didn't originate from video games as video game characters if their video game adaptation is more well known, if they were video game characters in their mediums, or just strongly associated with video games in general.
