0 Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) My first guess would be Princess Toadstool. For two reasons: The other characters' names are current and well known (she is now known mostly as Princess Peach now) and the others "fight bad guys". Samus Aran, Zelda (Sheik), Mario, and Link all fight evil, but I don't recall Princess Toadstool/Peach ever doing that. As I remember, she usually just ends up getting kidnapped. But I could be wrong. Edited March 28, 2008 by Noct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could be wrong. The universality of these names is too debatable for it to be a distinction in this case. As for her never being the protagonist, surely you're not forgetting the game Super Princess Peach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Samus, as the only one that uses a gun? Samus, as the only one modeled after movie character? Samus, as the only one fighting in world not her own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samus, as the only one fighting in world not her own? hehe, now that you say all those (which are correct) I can think of a ton as well, I guess maybe I could narrow what my original idea was by saying: history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Has to do with history you say... hmmm.... Well it could be Samus, as she's the only one of those not created by Miyamoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 still might be barking up the wrong tree... Samus, as she's never been in a castle? Or had things to do with castles? (To be honest, I'm not too familiar with samus pre game cube, So this is true to the best of my knowledge) Also, she's not part of a pair like the others are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But going with the historical idea, I think there's only one solid answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itachi-san Posted March 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Well, I'll post my original answer to this one, since there are, as been pointed out, infinite answers. My original thoughts had to do with video gaming history. Mario. He is the only character to be introduced to video gamers before the Nintendo generation.
