I'd say Samus/Ridley, both are well known, but Metroid is a very niche franchise with not many people actually knowing the games

Pac Man, he hasn't had a proper game in a long time yet he's still pretty iconic.
Bomber Man too, he's nowhere near as recognizable as Megaman, but he's fairly well known.

Kinda wish they went back to making Pac-Man World which was actually good instead of rebranding him into that new abomination that didn't even last a season.

>Metroid
>niche franchise
Literally the fourth most popular Nintendo franchise.

smash is a pretty popular franchise though

Kys

DK is the fourth most popular

Duke Nukem 100%. its gotta be something about big stylish chad men.

That's factually false.
Reported by Nintendo themselves the highest grossing games they have in order are
>Pokemon
>Mario (3D/2D games. Not even counting supplementary stuff like Party and Kart)
>Wii Sports/Minigames
>Legend of Zelda
>Donkey Kong

>Wii Sports/Minigames
irrelevant to the convo

>Is now canon in SF lore
So when is Capcom going to make their own version of the MCU but with all the Capcom games/franchises?

>Captain Falcon has been in more Smash Bros games than F-Zero games
>Almost nobody outside of Yea Forums even knows what F-Zero is
Being an F-Zero fan is torture

I’d say captain falcon is Smash’s OC

>Irrelevant to the convo
>Made more money then Metroid has ever made in 33 years
>Is still fucking being sold to this fucking day
I like Metroid but delusions will not make it any less true. Even if I removed it from the list because of your own bias Metroid still wouldn't hit Top 5 nor even Top 10.

Lol, outside of Yea Forums, who LARP that they've played it, literally no one knows it exists.

It'd be cool to se more vidya crossovers that aren't fighting games.

How many Capcom IPs are directly connected to Street Fighter, anyway? The other ones I can think of are Final Fight, Captain Commando, and Asura's Wrath.

Especially considering how good F-Zero games tend to be. It shouldn’t have been this way.

he has been in the same amount of smash games and there are still more f-zero games in total
