Considering the amount of 20's you would have perhaps you should pay someone to do it for you.

Finance video games with huge budgets that have no chance of being financially viable.

Crossover fighting games with a ton of different licenses with no regard to character popularity, big budget Suikoden and Shining Force games, whatever I feel like.

Obviously there are a lot of non-video game things I'd want to do with the money first, but that's the only really petty thing I'd want to do.

Honestly if I had a billion dollars I'd make a seven hour long movie or something

It's petty because I'd be gobbling up so much of the movie-making infrastructure in order to do this thing that other peoples ideas would surely get trampled in my greediness. And the movie would be seven hours long and probably something that only I could ever appreciate. So evil

A Disney Princess fighter might actually sell. I wouldn't care much about it, though!

Mine would include popular characters such as Francis York Morgan, The Nameless One, Yuri Hyuga, Minsc, and Richard Hawk.

That reminds me, finance translating Metal Wolf Chaos, and make a sequel.

I'd setup a series of online quizzes that test if you watch Gintama. For every quiz you complete with a good score you get $10. I would then advertise this on TV to make sure as many people as possible watch it. I would also get it a very good air-time on a major TV network in the US.
