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.

Link >>> Mario

when people think Nintendo they usually associate Mario with it.

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

tom effin nook!

I'm really more of a Crazy Redd guy myself.

Mario, the greatest

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.

Mario

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

I rest my case. Mario by far.

everyone definetly associates mario with nintendo instantly---- mario all the way!

thanks,

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.

but do we all forget Nintendos unsung hero


R.O.B.

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.
