I suppose so, though you could pretend that the Hunger Games finished a couple hundred years ago and a new president has introduced these games to take back power of Panem, and Danganronpa was an urban ledge created from the Hunger Games and the President just decided to use it. That's what i'll be going off for the backstory of the entire story.
