    Let's see...some adds:

    3DO

    -The Daedalus Encounter (I *think* it came out on PC first then dribbled to the 3DO)


    Dreamcast

    -Starlancer

    PS2

    -Star Trek: Elite Force

    Xbox

    -Crimson Skies
    -Battlefield 2: Modern Combat (also on 360)
    -Tron 2.0


    Corrections:

    NES: Sid Meier's Pirates!-It's actually just called "Pirates!". Same game just a change in the name. I honestly didn't know the pedigree until I saw the box screen shots.

    Here's an obscure one: Litil Divil for CD32.

    The big thing with PC to Console ports was that you lost the ability to mod everything.

    wizardy 1-5 added to tgcd.

    rayman removed, wizardy 6 added to ps1.

    There were also NES ports of AD&D: Pool of Radiance (whcih despite what the article I link below states, DID come out in the US) and AD&D: Hillsfar.
    that's what i get for trusting wikipedia. m&m2 removed from nes.
    ad&d: pool of radiance, ad&d: hillsfar, and bard's tale ii added to nes.

    Also, the only Ultima ever released on a Sega system was Ultima IV.
    according to data design interactive, they made it for the sms, gen, snes, and game gear.

    ultima: the black gate removed from sms.

    You forgot Ultima VII: The Black Gate. Also, since you said you were looking for console spinoffs of PC franchises as well as ports, Ultima: Runes of Virtue II.
    m&m:book one removed from snes.
    ultima: runes of virtue ii added to snes.

    Also Heroes of Might and Magic DEFINITELY didn't. You may be thinking of King's Bounty, which inspired HoM&M and DID appear on the Genesis.

    Another game to add to that list: Buck Rogers: Countdown to Doomsday.
    m&m1 and hom&m removed from genesis.
    buck rogers: countdown to doomsday added to genesis

    sorry, just looking for ibm-pc software.

    The Emperor's New Groove (PC / PS1 - I'm not sure which one came out first, though!)

    XBox 360: Command & Conquer 3

    Several consoles:
    Lode Runner
    alone in the dark 2 added to 3do, saturn, ps1.
    alone in the dark: the new nightmare added to ps1, dc, ps2.
    looks like the two versions of emperor's new groove were released a week apart, so that'd fall into my simultaneous release rule.
    c&c3 added to 360.
    lode runner was first made for the apple ][, c64 and other classic computers.

    Also there is the Dynamix game Stellar Fire on the Sega CD that is part of the Stellar/Nova 9 series. Although Stellar Fire might be exclusive to the Sega CD and not be a PC port, but i'm not sure.
    adventures of willy beamish, loadstar, heart of the alien added to sega cd.
    another world added to 3do, genesis, sega cd, snes.

    If you're going to count the FM Towns Marty, you'll want to add the Marty ports of Loom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and of course the famous Zak McKraken port. (I didn't know it had one of the Kyrandia games too!)

    I'm not sure if SNES Metal Marines counts. I'm told the SNES game is very different from the PC game anyway.

    Was Brutal Paws of Fury on a console first? I know the PC version had a sequel.

    Crusader: No Remorse was on the PSX and Saturn.

    And SNES Spectre was on the Mac.
    loom added to fm towns, tg16.

    indy: the last crusade: the graphic adventure, zak mckracken and the alien mindbenders added to fm towns.

    the snes version of metal marines was released before the pc version.

    brutal paws was also on the genesis before it made its way to pc.
    crusader: no remorse added to ps1, saturn.

    May I ask what lead you to start a collection of this type of game? No offense, but it seems like a really random cross section of games.
    Condoleezza Rice is nice, but I prefer A Roni!
