I can name a few game gals off the bat:

Valkyrie: One of Namco's classics who only ever saw a localization in Museum Vol. 5 for PS1. Oh, and she's an assist character (*sigh*) in Project X Zone.

Asha: From Monster World IV. I guess you can say she was Shantae before Shantae was around...But she shakes her butt while opening a chest. Beat that, dramatic Zelda chest sequences!
![[Image: madoola.jpg]](/image.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hardcoregaming101.net%2Fmadoola%2Fmadoola.jpg&hash=5d4372eeec5d28033f87f359499ca60d)
Lucia: From Sunsoft's Wing of Madoola for the Famicom. Nothin' too special other than (I assume) she was too scantily clad for the game to be localized 
. Aaaaaaand meanwhile, Samus wears a bikini if you beat Metroid 100%.

Mail: From Popful Mail. I think if SEGA went along with their original Sister Sonic project, whatever character Mail would have become would be more popular since...Ya know. Hedgehogs that run fast have become quite a thing these days.

Athena: SNK's game about a cute goddess girl did release in the US...But I don't think it deserves as much credit as the game didn't really meet the game design standards of the time (Yeah, even for 1986). At least she turned out to be a formidable street fighter in a later life.
