We have all played many video games, some of us too many to count. We also met some pretty cool characters, played as them, and beat the game to 100% with em. We were introduced to the gaming world by those characters. We've ripped em from their games and posted them on this site too. We all have that one character that we just know and love all too well. Who is your video game hero? Explain how you got to know the character and what made you like them the most, it could be abilities, personality, the style of the character, whatever. Take your pick! Be descriptive.
Lack of other disappoints me.
Question, how are we defining retro? To give you some perspective for why I'm asking this, World of Warcraft is now 10 years old so what we perceive as retro ain't necessarily right.
You limit a poll to 8-Bit characters because they're supposed to be the "retro" all-stars, but you leave out Frogger and Q*Bert? (and Samus, and Simon Belmont, and Space Invaders, and...)
Ignore the poll guys. Thanks.

Where's my buddy Sukapon?
Still though, what point are we cutting this off at? I'd like to say Zeratul since Starcraft 1 came out 17 years ago.
Gonna go with Crash and Spyro before their original companies sold em off. Also Mario, Samus, DK, Diddy, Dixie, and Ness.
