Ziria and Toad of Tengai Makyou: Ziria, PC Engine
Ziria is a hero who’d rather goof off than save the world. I like his style.

no marios allowed!
nomarios is a Tumblog where artist Ashley Davis draws all the coolest videogame characters who don't get to be under the spotlight too often.
This means no one from Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Sonic, Portal, Kirby, Pokemon, Tetris, Mega Man, Final Fantasy, Street Fighter, most other major Nintendo series and most games made in the past five years.1 Basically, any character that doesn't show up on Tumblr's gaming radar very often is fair game. 2 No licensed characters either!
1 Exceptions may be made for the stars of less popular spinoffs

Milon of Milon’s Secret Castle and DoReMi Fantasy, NES/SNES
Poor Milon! Everyone else gets bullets and fireballs, while he gets stuck with a bubble-blowing horn. His game* is hard enough as it is!
*Milon’s Secret Castle. His second game, DoReMi Fantasy, is much less frustrating. It’s fun, even!
Master Higgins of the Adventure Island series, various platforms
All he wanted was an omelette, but all he got were skateboards! Adventure Island’s eggs are weird.
Bomberman, various platforms
I imagine that Bomberman’s line of work would be pretty nerve wracking! The continuous, loud explosions, the maze-like arenas, unexpected bombs falling from the sky from opponents who got to the Power Glove powerup before you could…
