Who is the most iconic video game character of all time?
>inb4 mario

Mario, Pikachu, Pac-Man

>Pong

Left Line segment. He's our man

Sans.

well it is Mario...

but after that probably Sonic, Link, Pacman or Master Chief

I imagine the top 10 is

>Mario/Peach/bowser
>Pikachu (Charizard and mewtwo by extension)
>Pac Man
>Pong paddles
>Space invader aliens
>Link
>Sonic
>Master Chief
>Steve (Minecraft, kids fucking love minecraft)
>Red bird from angry birds

either Halo or Mario, maybe Metroid

>chief
>iconic
lol no. step aside

Mario
Pikachu
Link

Blocks from Tetris. Honestly, they're recognisable anywhere. People who don't know what a graphics card is would recognise the Tetris blocks.

Its mario, stop being in denial. Even the most retarded person cant argue against it.

Pretty much this

Am I wrong for being happy the chief is an iconic guy? It's a shame he's mostly attributed to Dudebros, but he's got a great voice and stuff

Mario of course
Sonic, Donkey Kong, and Pikachu are the only others that everyone and their Grandma probably know about.

Not the most popular, but Donkey Kong should be discussed here I believe

He's also the only one with a more serious/realistic design, gotta give him credit for that.

>filthy humans
>iconic

>Sonic

As a lorefag, chief has more character to him then people think but it's still not much, he's one of the least interesting characters in the EU even if the S2 program itself is interesting

Aren't you forgetting someone?

Lore fag here myself
He's just a conservative and quiet guy, having had the shithead kid beaten out of him

I feel if things were different, he'd be a cool dad

>no mention of doom guy

in terms of bad guys
