I doubt it. There may be some fans but I don't think there was exactly enough mass appeal to generate dvds of the tv series. It wasn't exactly the pokemon killer that bandai hoped it would be. Still, there's always a glimmer of hope.

the movie that came out in the US was a combination of the first 3 movies. They could easily fit the rest on one dvd since they're all under 30 minutes but it's extremely doubtful.

I knew there were at least two movies, but I had no idea they had that many. I guess it makes sense considering how many different series they have.

I don't understand why they would make VHS's of Digimon and not DVDs, I remember seeing my friend with a few VHS's that they never made into DVDs just VSHs.

VHS was the dominant video format when Digimon was at it's peak in popularity. It makes perfect sense.

There are eight movies in total. The first 7 are by Toei and the 8th is a recent CGI effort by Bandai.
There are two movies for each of the four TV series, except Frontier which only got one.
The movies (OVAs) are all rather short and Saban wanted something feature-length, so they created the US Digimon Movie by splicing together the first three movies, cutting it down to size then re-writing the script to try and turn it into one single story (the 3rd movie not only has no connection to the first two, but iirc is not even incontinuity with the series)
Ironically, the fourth movie was a sequel to the second movie so would have fitted into the US movie a lot better.
