I guess I'm just in a polling mood today.

Mario isn't only the greatest Nintendo icon, but the greatest video game icon.

I remember years ago they did a survey on characters, and Mario was the third most recognized character behind Mickey Mouse and Superman. I wonder where he'd rank now.

when people think Nintendo they usually associate Mario with it.

I voted Mario, but Link sure is close. They are both so very cool.

Just for the sake of clarity, MegaMan is not a Nintendo Icon. He belongs to Capcom.

Link is my favorite.

Would you have any objections if I moved this to the Game Club Forum?

If that is where it belongs, by all means move it there. I really wasn't sure where I should put it.

How many non-gamers know who Link is? How many know who Mario is?

I rest my case. Mario by far.

My vote has to go to Mario. Lui-who..oh you mean the green guy. Actually I'm a bigger fan of Luigi, but Mario is just the bigger icon in my opinion.

Mario is probably the biggest icon, but Samus has never had a mediocre game or been whored out like Mario lately.

It's gotta be Mario. Without Mario there would be no Nintendo period.

How many gamers actually had ROB when they were a kid. It was expensive and in short supply. I can only remember this rich cousin of mine having it and I wanted to kick his ass so bad. That little robot was so damn cool. And he interacted with the game itself. Err... what were we talking about again? Oh yeah I wish I had that when I was a kid.
