History NinjaPirateZombieRobot / VideoGames

* ''VideoGame/{{Turok}}'' has you playing as a ''Dimension hopping Native American who kills [[EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs Dinosaurs]], Cyborgs, Zombies and Aliens with [[MoreDakka increasingly]] over compensatory, bizarre and incredibly [[NoKillLikeOverKill over-powered]] [[{{BFG}} guns]].''

** Garchomp gets honorable mention. Why? Because it's a [[ThreateningShark shark]] crossed with a [[EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs dinosaur]], [[OurDragonsAreDifferent dragon]], and a ''[[CoolPlane jet]]'' (With torpedoes on its head!).

* Gruntilda Winkybunion of the ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie'' series seems to fall deeper into this trope with each subsequent game. In ''Banjo-Tooie'' she turns into a Zombie Witch, in ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooieGruntysRevenge'' she appears as a Robot Ghost Witch, and in ''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'', not only is Gruntilda now a zombie head in a robot body, but during the final battle attacks the heroes on a pirate ship, thus making her a Pirate Zombie Robot Witch.
** Grunty has a number of more mundane titles she can add to her name as well, including Captain (Rusty Bucket Bay), CEO (Grunty Industries), Aviator (Banjo Pilot), and Mechanic (''Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts'').

** It's worth discussing in some detail how you go about starting Zombjas: Your village can have, for the purposes of maintaining headcount and collecting resources, Biological Robot versions of Ninjas, call Nonjas. The Village Leader can choose to inject a Nonja, with unleashes a Zombja horde, which the village then fights off. In other words, the minigame is started when '''a Robot Ninja becomes a Zombie Ninja'''. You heard that right: '''a Robot Ninja becomes a Zombie Ninja''' in order for this minigame to happen. All that's missing is a Pirate element, and you'd have the quadfecta[?].

* Hakumen from ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'' is a robot ghost samurai who may qualify for [[spoiler: zombie because of his near-death as Jin]].

** Not to mention Iron Tager, the demonic zombie cyborg giant [[GeniusBruiser scientist's assistant]]. Also a rather NiceGuy, just his job might involve beating the crap out of you. Nothing personal.

** BigBad Bowser, the horned dragon turtle demon. There's also his recurring undead form of Dry Bowser.
*** ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' ''2'' gives him loads of personas, including pirate, cowboy and wizard.

* ''VideoGame/FTLFasterThanLight'' brings us {{Space Pirate}}s. Who will sometimes be Mantises or Rockmen.

** A later boss: Kraidgief. Half [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Kraid]], half [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Zangief]]. Who fires Blankas and Hadokens at you. And can do a SpinningPiledriver that will kill you like [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Kenshiro]] if you let him get his hands on you.

** Due to the way the Throne of Heroes works, Heroic Spirits can be summoned as BikerBabe gorgons, {{Magic Knight}}s with beam swords, or even [[spoiler:time travelling magic mercenaries from the future]]. And those are just from the [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight first installment]] alone.

*** Shadow Lugia takes this UpToEleven what with it being an [[BrainwashedAndCrazy evil version of Lugia with a darker more feral appearance.]]

*** [[UpToEleven The above is not counting DLC characters.]] Which include the above [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} psychic cat-kangaroo-rat clone]] and [[VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBindingBlade teenage noble (aged a few years)]], also returning from Melee, [[VideoGame/Mother3 the other psychic child]] from ''Brawl'', a [[Franchise/StreetFighter wandering Japanese martial artist, considered to be THE fighting game protagonist, who can shoot balls of energy from his hands]], [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII a spiky-haired, biologically enhanced Super Soldier swordsman]] with the most famous {{BFS}} in all of gaming, dwarfing every other sword in the game, [[VideoGame/FireEmblemFates another white-haired avatar character/prince/princess]] with the ability to [[VoluntaryShapeshifter transform fully and partially]] into a flying [[MakingASplash water dragon]] and wields what is essentially a [[ChainsawGood chainsaw]] crossed with a FlamingSword (with an appearance resembling that of a sci-fi anime protagonist despite their quasi-medieval background), and finally, [[VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}} a gun-toting, snarky, demonic, angel-slaying, Hot Librarian witch]] with [[GunFu high-heel guns]], clothes [[GodivaHair somehow made out of her own hair]] [[PrehensileHair which she uses to attack]], the ability to temporarily stop time, a UsefulNotes/{{British Accent|s}} and absurdly long legs.

--> Mutant zombie bear cannibals. Yeah, we're a looooong way from Kansas...

** Lechku and Nechku are a pair of [[CreepyTwins twin]] demonic clockwork time-controlling [[HighClassGlass gentlemen]] {{O|minousOwl}}wls. With {{Nice Hat}}s.

** That's not counting the drops from previous rosters, including a baby version of the [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} lightning shooting mouse]], the [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} psychic cat-kangaroo-rat]] GlassCannon who happens to be a clone of a small cat-like thing who is the one all creatures from its world evolved from, a [[PlayingWithFire fire-sword wielding]] [[VideoGame/FireEmblemElibe literally red-haired Japanese-speaking teenage military commander/noble]] who can possibly be [[HalfHumanHybrid part ice dragon]], a [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime younger but not so cartoonish alter-ego of the aforementioned warrior elf]], and so on. The second game even introduced an AxCrazy-laughing twin of the above giant sentient [[WhiteGloves glove]].
** The fourth installment gave us a [[VideoGame/AnimalCrossing silent, smiling villager]] with extremely [[HyperspaceArsenal deep and durable pockets]], a [[VideoGame/WiiFit fitness instructor]] who uses [[FightingClown yoga poses to deal the hurt]], a [[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy cosmic goddess]] that's assisted by little, chubby stars, a [[VideoGame/PunchOut small boxer]] that packs a much bigger punch, a [[VideoGame/PokemonXAndY ninja frog]] that uses [[MakingASplash water-based ninjutsu]] and wears its tongue like a scarf, a [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]], [[{{Troll}} trolling]] [[VideoGame/KidIcarus goddess of light]] who uses the powers she gives to the above warrior angel, a [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening (formerly) customizable male or female avatar tactician]] with magic disposable tomes and an [[ShockAndAwe electric sword]] [[spoiler:who also happens to be/used to be [[ApocalypseMaiden the vessel]] of an evil EldritchAbomination god]], a [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening time-traveling blue-haired swords]][[ActionGirl woman]] princess and descendant of the above [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAkaneia blue-haired Japanese speaking swordsman prince]], a HumanAlien LaserBlade {{BFS}} [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1 wielding swordman and engineer]] with a UsefulNotes/{{British Accent|s}} and CombatClairvoyance, the [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros son of the above turtle-dragon]] with said turtle-dragon's [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3 top-ranked minions]] as his {{Palette Swap}}s, a [[VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising darker, ruder twin of the above warrior angel]], a [[VideoGame/DuckHunt mischievous snickering dog that teams up with a duck and his unseen owner that shoots near both of them]], [[UsefulNotes/{{Mii}} highly customizable cartoonish avatars that can represent whoever you want]] and can fight either with a sword, an ArmCannon or their bare fists, a [[Franchise/MegaMan blue]] [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic robot kid]] that [[PowerCopying fights with weapons he gains from fallen foes]] and [[VideoGame/MegaManX alongside]] [[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork his]] [[VideoGame/MegaManStarForce alternate]] [[VideoGame/MegaManLegends counterparts]], and a [[VideoGame/PacMan walking, yellow ball of endless hunger]] that can summon deadly fruit, keys, fire hydrants, and arcade game props, with [[VideoGame/DrMario a doctor version of the aforementioned plumber]] [[TheBusCameBack joining back in from Melee]]. All of this topped off by the series' most powerful enemy yet: An EldritchAbomination [[VoluntaryShapeshifter shape-shifting]] OneWingedAngel transformation of the first giant sentient [[WhiteGloves glove]]. [[LongList Phew...]]
*** [[UpToEleven The above is not counting DLC characters.]] Which include the above [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} psychic cat-kangaroo-rat clone]] and [[VideoGame/FireEmblemElibe teenage noble (aged a few years)]], also returning from Melee, [[VideoGame/Mother3 the other psychic child]] from Brawl, a [[Franchise/StreetFighter wandering Japanese martial artist, considered to be THE fighting game protagonist, who can shoot balls of energy from his hands]], [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII a spiky-haired, biologically enhanced Super Soldier swordsman]] with the most famous {{BFS}} in all of gaming, dwarfing every other sword in the game, [[VideoGame/FireEmblemFates another white-haired avatar character/prince/princess]] with the ability to [[VoluntaryShapeshifter transform fully and partially]] into a flying [[MakingASplash water dragon]] and wields what is essentially a [[ChainsawGood chainsaw]] crossed with a FlamingSword (with an appearance resembling that of a sci-fi anime protagonist despite their quasi-medieval background), and finally, [[VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}} a gun-toting, snarky, demonic, angel-slaying, Hot Librarian witch]] with [[GunFu high-heel guns]], clothes [[GodivaHair somehow made out of her own hair]] [[PrehensileHair which she uses to attack]], the ability to temporarily stop time, a UsefulNotes/{{British Accent|s}} and absurdly long legs.

* ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}'' has Lechku and Nechku, a pair of [[CreepyTwins twin]] demonic {{Clockwork|Creature}} [[TimeMaster time-controlling]] [[HighClassGlass gentlemen]] {{O|minousOwl}}wls. With {{Nice Hat}}s.
** After you beat the final boss, you [[spoiler: fly to the Celestial Plain in a 200-year old bishounen's spaceship. The bishounen is from the moon.]]
*** Oh, you think that's crazy? Waka is a: French-speaking, Japanese, bishounen from the moon who dual wields a laser sword and a katana (or other similar type of sword), he's a prophet, and he owns a spaceship.

* The ''VideoGame/{{Onechanbara}}'' stars Aya, a Japanese girl who is decked out in a cowboy hat and bikini who uses a katana to fight zombies commanded by her evil half-sister who killed her father. Add to this the fact that part of the gameplay involves her getting soaked in blood (which triggers an UnstoppableRage) and there's an unlockable costume that is exactly the same of the original - but made of black leather. And a red scarf.

** ''VideoGame/FateExtraCCC'' introduced "High Servants", which are Heroic Spirits that are made up of more than one mythological figure. The Sakura Five are all made up of a part of B.B. and at least three godesses each. Sitonai of ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'' goes even further, as she's both this ''and'' a Demi-Servant (meaning she's 3 different divine characters SharingABody). Oh, and the host body is a homunculus.
** In addition to the abilities Heroic Spirits already have, there can be alternate selves with several further modifiers: Alter,[[note]]A darker version of the character, typically created through some sort of corruption[[/note]] Lily,[[note]]a version of the person from a more idealized or innocent time, regardless of if that time really existed[[/note]] Santa,[[note]]a gag modifier where the person takes on Santa's role[[/note]] and Demi-Servant[[note]]a Heroic Spirit residing in a host body, whatever that body may be[[/note]] to name a few.

* The ''VideoGame/MegaMan'' franchise, full stop. Its [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters myriads of mechanoids]] are often a combination of a robot and something else. The classic series alone has a robot ninja ''and'' a robot pirate, as separate boss characters. Also a robot vampire and his robot zombie {{mooks}}. Additional examples include an Egyptian Pharaoh Robot, a Skeleton Robot, a King Robot, a UFO Robot, a Japanese Demon Robot, and two instances of Vehicle Transformer Robots, just to name a few.

* The playable cast of ''VideoGame/{{Skylanders}}'' includes a Giant Ninja Genie and an Undead Cowboy Rattlesnake, [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters among others]].

* ''VideoGame/UmaMusume'' does this a lot. All the playable characters start out as a combination of [[LittleBitBeastly horse girl]] and [[PassionateSportsGirl school athlete]], and then have extra traits added on - and on top of that, some of them get special event costumes which result in combinations such as [[{{Eagleland}} American]] [[MaskedLuchador Luchador]] [[BareFistedMonk Monk]] Horsegirl (El Condor Pasa) and [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire Vampire]] [[UnconventionalWeddingDress Bridal]] {{Assassin}} {{Little Sister|Heroine}} Horsegirl (Rice Shower). Oh, and one more thing: they're based on, and named after, real-life racehorses.

** The [[Videogame/AloneInTheDark1992 first game]] has zombie chickens as a common enemy, and a pirate zombie as a boss.
** The [[Videogame/AloneInTheDark2 second game]] has mobster pirate zombies as your enemies, and a ninja mobster pirate zombie who was also a cowboy back in the day as a boss.
** The [[Videogame/AloneInTheDark3 third game]] has cowboy zombies as your enemies, one cowboy zombie werewolf, and a ninja cowboy zombie as a boss.
* Quite a few bosses in ''VideoGame/{{Alundra 2}}''. It has such things as: a giant fire-breathing cyborg cat, cyborg minotaur, giant robot spider, huge crocodile with a giant mushroom growing on its back, orange shark with vacuum-powers, statues based on Egyptian gods with laser eyes, heart of a robot whale which has a huge drill on its snout, an anthropomorphic tiger which can turn itself invincible, a cyborg mantis with a monocle, a purple cyborg pirate gorilla and lastly, a robot warlock with a detachable head.

* The [[{{UsefulNotes/Atari2600}} Atari 2600]] game ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Mutants_from_Space Communist Mutants from Space]]''.

** Robert is a [[NiceMice Mouse]] [[MoneyFetish Merchant]] [[ArcherArchetype Archer]].

** However, ''VideoGame/{{Mother 3}}'' takes this trope and deconstructs it. In the second half of the game, most of the enemies are MixAndMatchCritters or mechanized animals created by the Pigmasks. It really makes you want to kill their leader that much more.

* Frank Horrigan from ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 2}}'' is a Super Mutant Cyborg Secret Service Agent.

* ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 3}}'''s expansion pack ''Operation: Anchorage'' has [[RedChina Chinese]] [[DirtyCommunists Communist]] [[McNinja Ninjas]].
* In ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 4}}'', the crew of the USS Constitution are Continental Robot Sailors, complete with old-fashioned Anglo-American accents and ranks befitting the theme. The captain, a giant Sentry Bot named Ironsides, even has a little sailor hat on his head. [[spoiler:They've also fitted rockets to the ship and are trying to make it fly]]. There's also the crew of the wrecked Norwegian ship FMS Northern Star, who have been ghoulified and become raiders, making them Viking Pirate Zombies. And then there's Nick Valentine, the [[spoiler:Synth]] Detective.

** Juji Kabane, from ''Overdose'', is a blind undead swordsman who [[DualWielding dual-wields]] [[CoolGuns gun]]-[[KatanasAreJustBetter katanas]] in ReverseGrip and tends to [[KillItWithFire kill things with]] [[IncendiaryExponent FIRE]]. And he also owns the above possessed guitar. YEAH!
* VideoGame/GuiltyGear [[VideoGame/GuiltyGearStrive Strive]]: [[Characters/GuiltyGearStrive Nagoriyuki]] is a futuristic vampire samurai.

* In ''VideoGame/HollowKnight'', the protagonist is a [[LivingShadow Shadow]] Imp MagicKnight, the deuteragonist Hornet is a [[SpiderPeople Spider]] Ninja Princess, and Troupe Master Grimm is a [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Vampire]] [[MacabreMothMotif Moth]] [[RepulsiveRingmaster Ringmaster]].

* ''VideoGame/{{Killer 7}}''. An old senile hitman, who spends the duration of the story getting raped by his maid, with seven split personalities which can manifest into the real world fighting suicide bomber zombie things who are really happy all the time. The split personalities are comprised of a black guy with resurrection powers, a badass anime stereotype with a revolver that can shoot energy balls, Mexican Tommy Vercetti with super jumping powers and the ability to fire a weapon upside down without breaking his elbow, a blind Chinese gangsta kid who can run really freaking fast and dual-wields pistols [[GangstaStyle sideways]], a sniper chick who really ''really'' likes blood, a mute albino knife freak who can turn invisible, and a macho libre wrestler.

** By the time of ''Videogame/TalesOfMonkeyIsland'', [[NoodleIncident he evidently added "Walrus"]] to the list of things he's been.

* ''VideoGame/MystikBelle'' has a [[MadScientist Science]] [[McNinja Ninja]], a [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent Werewolf]][[TheProfessor Professor]], and a [[MultipleHeadCase three-headed]] RatKing.

* ''Videogame/NinjaGolf'' is an interesting case: It's either this or straight up GratuitousNinja, depending on how you look at it. The gameplay consists of a rather mediocre golf video game, broken up by a mediocre ninja-based sidescroller as you travel between golf strokes.

* ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}'' has Lechku and Nechku, a pair of [[CreepyTwins twin]] demonic [[ClockworkCreature clockwork]] [[TimeMaster time-controlling]] [[HighClassGlass gentlemen]] [[OminousOwl owls]]. With [[NiceHat Nice Hats]].

* The ''Videogame/{{Onechanbara}}'' stars Aya, a Japanese girl who is decked out in a cowboy hat and bikini who uses a katana to fight zombies commanded by her evil half-sister who killed her father. Add to this the fact that part of the gameplay involves her getting soaked in blood (which triggers an UnstoppableRage) and there's an unlockable costume that is exactly the same of the original - but made of black leather. And a red scarf.

* In ''VideoGame/OriAndTheWillOfTheWisps'', Shriek, the main antagonist, is a {{Dire| Beast}} [[NonHumanUndead Undead]] [[HornsOfVillainy Horned]] [[OminousOwl Owl]].

* ''VideoGame/ParaWorld'' probably takes the prize for this trope. Where to begin? Among others, the units available include ninjas, voodoo doctors who can restore you to life after you die, pirates who come from the same clan as the aforementioned ninjas, a guy who destroys buildings by ''headbutting'' them -- buildings, now! -- a catapult that shoots raptor eggs that hatch on impact and attack the nearest living creature, a guy with a Gatling gun -- made of {{Bamboo Technology}} wood -- Vikings, Amazon warriors, a guy who kills himself with snakes as his main form of attack, and, oh, yes, jetpack Vikings. The dinosaurs have upgrades ranging from adding blades onto their tusks to drugging them up so that they don't take damage until the high wears off. Attempts to describe any battles that occur in this game -- which is, surprisingly, subpar even ''with'' all this -- are entertaining, to say the least. "Then his submarine dinosaur sank my flamethrower ship!"
* The bosses of ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'' probably count. To put it simply the most mundane one is a cyborg/detective/mad scientist with toy lasers and a jet pack (oh and a pimpin' police hat).

** The ''franchise'' is wrought with these. There's Blastoise, the water jet cannon tortoise, Scyther, the human-sized mantis ninja raptor with ''[[SinisterScythe scythes]] for [[BladeBelowTheShoulder arms]]'', Ho-oh, the rainbow-forming phoenix, Exploud, the organ boombox hippo, Gliscor, the scorpion bat crab, Golurk, the clay-sculpted ghost-possessed GiantMecha that flies with rockets, Chandelure, the fire-spewing soul-sucking chandelier, Vanilluxe, the sentient Siamese ice cream cone, Genesect, the resurrected prehistoric bipedal insect transformer with a cannon on its back, Vespiquen, a combination of a [[BeeAfraid bee]] and a battleship with a touch of European royalty, Sigilyph, a Psychic Totem Pole Demon with Western Art worked in...

* ''VideoGame/ReturnToCastleWolfenstein'' has zombie knights, Nazi {{dominatrix}} [[McNinja ninjas]], [[FrankensteinsMonster Frankensteinian]] {{super soldier}}s, and as the FinalBoss, a zombie {{black magic}}ian warlord.

* ''VideoGame/SakuraWars'' features [[Creator/TakarazukaRevue Takarazuka actresses]] with [[MagicalGirl magical powers]] piloting [[{{Steampunk}} steam-powered]] [[HumongousMecha mechas]] to fight [[DemonicInvaders demons]]. And it's also a DatingSim.

* ''S.C.A.R.S'' is not just a racing game. It's not just a racing game set in the future. It's not just a racing game set in the future with animal themed [[FunWithAcronyms cars]]. It is [[ArtificialIntelligence Super Computer]] [[AnimalThemedSuperbeing Animal]] Racing [[GameWithinAGame Simulator]]. With weapons.

* The various {{Expansion Pack}}s of ''VideoGame/TheSims 2'' introduce a new paranormal creature each, which can frequently be combined. In order of release: [[HalfHumanHybrid half-alien hybrids]], zombies, vampires, robots, werewolves, [[PlantAliens Plantsims]], Bigfoot, Genies ({{NPC}}s, unfortunately) and witches. There is even a user-made challenge for ''The Sims 2'' that revolves around making a half-alien sim into a zombie-vampire-werewolf-plantsim-witch/warlock.
** ''VideoGame/TheSims 3'' unfortunately doesn't allow the rampant supernatural hybridization of its predecessor, but you can now have playable ghost versions of many of the available supernaturals. Also, the available careers allow to have combinations like "Werewolf Martial Artist", "Ghost Chess Champion", "Vampire Crimelord", "Witch Secret Agent"...

** Yoshimitsu is a RobinHood type suicidal Ninja [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace FROM SPACE!]], whose [[ArtificialLimbs wooden arm]] is powered by [[SteamPunk "gears"]]. In the ''VideoGame/{{Tekken}}'' series, his successor started out with a [[ArtificialLimb bionic arm]], then took a liking for cyborg parts, and through his buddy Dr. B became a full-on Cyborg Ninja by ''Tekken 3''.

* Oh, ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. As of ''Brawl'', the roster includes two [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros fire-throwing plumbers]], [[VideoGame/EarthBound1994 two]] [[VideoGame/{{Mother 3}} psychic]] children from an already strange WidgetSeries, a [[VideoGame/YoshisIsland dinosaur that can turn into a dragon]], a [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros turtle-dragon]], [[Franchise/DonkeyKong two monkeys]] (well, all right, a monkey with a jetpack who shoots his enemies with peanuts and a bongo-playing ''ape'' wearing a tie), a [[VideoGame/{{Kirby}} penguin with a sledgehammer]], a robot with laser eyes, a [[VideoGame/KidIcarus warrior angel]] with ImprobableAimingSkills and a DualWielding SwissArmyWeapon, some [[VideoGame/StarFox furry space mercenaries (specifically, a fox, falcon and wolf) who drive tanks]], a [[SamusIsAGirl female]] [[Franchise/{{Metroid}} space mercenary in a battlesuit]], [[VideoGame/FZero a race car driver/bounty hunter with a fiery punch and loads of hot blood]], a [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros princess who fights with an umbrella]], a [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda magic princess/ninja]] (who, in her own series, has a magic princess pirate counterpart), a [[VideoGame/{{Pikmin}} pint-sized astronaut leading flower aliens]], a [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda badass elf-looking chap with loads of weapons, an evil wizard/kickboxer, a smaller cartoon version of said badass elf]], a [[LethalJokeCharacter 2-D stick figure guy]], an ExtremeOmnivore [[VideoGame/{{Kirby}} pink puffball]], a [[Franchise/{{Kirby}} blue ninja/Batman/Vader puffball]], a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} singing, self-deflating puffball with hypnosis powers]], an [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} electric mouse]], a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} canine]] BruceLeeClone with aura powers, a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} dinosaur plant]], a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} turtle with ninja moves]] (teenage status unconfirmed), a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} flying, fire-breathing, dragon-like lizard]], a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} trainer of the above three]], [[VideoGame/IceClimber a pair of mallet-wielding eskimo children]], a [[Franchise/FireEmblem blue-haired uber-Bishounen Japanese speaking swordsman prince, a blue-haired mercenary with a BFS]], an [[VideoGame/WarioWare obese, flatulent Italian man]] with an infinite supply of edible motorcycles and a superhero alter-ego, a [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog bright blue, speedy, anthropomorphic hedgehog]] who can run past the speed of sound, and a [[PaintingTheMedium fourth-wall-painting]] [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid spy assassin clone]]. And the BigBad is a [[PowerGlows glowing]] Space Angel, controlling a giant sentient [[WhiteGloves glove]] that happens to be ''[[OurGodsareDifferent God]]''. And that's not even getting into the assistant characters, or other aspects of the game inherent to its nature as a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover featuring things from all across the Nintendo library and beyond, many of which already fall in this category, even being mentioned on this very page.

** The fourth installment gave us a [[VideoGame/AnimalCrossing silent, smiling villager]] with extremely [[HyperspaceArsenal deep and durable pockets]], a [[VideoGame/WiiFit fitness instructor]] who uses [[FightingClown yoga poses to deal the hurt]], a [[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy cosmic goddess]] that's assisted by little, chubby stars, a [[VideoGame/PunchOut small boxer]] that packs a much bigger punch, a [[VideoGame/PokemonXAndY ninja frog]] that uses [[MakingASplash water-based ninjutsu]] and wears its tongue like a scarf, a [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]], [[{{Troll}} trolling]] [[VideoGame/KidIcarus goddess of light]] who uses the powers she gives to the above warrior angel, a [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening (formerly) customizable male or female avatar tactician]] with magic disposable tomes and an [[ShockAndAwe electric sword]] [[spoiler:who also happens to be/used to be [[ApocalypseMaiden the vessel]] of an evil EldritchAbomination god]], a [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening time-traveling blue-haired swords]][[ActionGirl woman]] princess and descendant of the above [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAkaneia blue-haired Japanese speaking swordsman prince]], a HumanAlien LaserBlade {{BFS}} [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1 wielding swordman and engineer]] with a UsefulNotes/{{British Accent|s}} and CombatClairvoyance, the [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros son of the above turtle-dragon]] with said turtle-dragon's [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3 top-ranked minions]] as his [[PaletteSwap Palette Swaps]], a [[VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising darker, ruder twin of the above warrior angel]], a [[VideoGame/DuckHunt mischievous snickering dog that teams up with a duck and his unseen owner that shoots near both of them]], [[UsefulNotes/{{Mii}} highly customizable cartoonish avatars that can represent whoever you want]] and can fight either with a sword, an ArmCannon or their bare fists, a [[Franchise/MegaMan blue]] [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic robot kid]] that [[PowerCopying fights with weapons he gains from fallen foes]] and [[VideoGame/MegaManX alongside]] [[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork his]] [[VideoGame/MegaManStarForce alternate]] [[VideoGame/MegaManLegends counterparts]], and a [[VideoGame/PacMan walking, yellow ball of endless hunger]] that can summon deadly fruit, keys, fire hydrants, and arcade game props, with [[VideoGame/DrMario a doctor version of the aforementioned plumber]] [[TheBusCameBack joining back in from Melee]]. All of this topped off by the series' most powerful enemy yet: An EldritchAbomination [[VoluntaryShapeshifter shape-shifting]] OneWingedAngel transformation of the first giant sentient [[WhiteGloves glove]]. [[LongList Phew...]]
*** [[UpToEleven The above is not counting DLC characters.]] Which include the above [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} psychic cat-kangaroo-rat clone]] and [[VideoGame/FireEmblemElibe teenage noble (aged a few years)]], also returning from Melee, [[VideoGame/{{Mother3}} the other psychic child]] from Brawl, a [[StreetFighter wandering Japanese martial artist, considered to be THE fighting game protagonist, who can shoot balls of energy from his hands]], [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII a spiky-haired, biologically enhanced Super Soldier swordsman]] with the most famous {{BFS}} in all of gaming, dwarfing every other sword in the game, [[VideoGame/FireEmblemFates another white-haired avatar character/prince/princess]] with the ability to [[VoluntaryShapeshifter transform fully and partially]] into a flying [[MakingASplash water dragon]] and wields what is essentially a [[ChainsawGood chainsaw]] crossed with a FlamingSword (with an appearance resembling that of a sci-fi anime protagonist despite their quasi-medieval background), and finally, [[VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}} a gun-toting, snarky, demonic, angel-slaying, Hot Librarian witch]] with [[GunFu high-heel guns]], clothes [[GodivaHair somehow made out of her own hair]] [[PrehensileHair which she uses to attack]], the ability to temporarily stop time, a UsefulNotes/{{British Accent|s}} and absurdly long legs.
** And then comes ''Ultimate'', which not only manages to bring back ''every single of the sixty-something previous characters'', but also to add [[VideoGame/{{Splatoon}} fashionable squids than can turn into human-like teens]] and who attack with colourful ink, a [[VideoGame/SuperMarioLand tomboyish princess with a strong affinity with flowers]], a [[Franchise/{{Metroid}} giant purple and omnicidal dragon/pterodactyl]] who is also a Space Pirate, a [[Franchise/{{Castlevania}} whip-wielding and powerful]] VampireHunter hailing from a long lineage that was entrusted to hunt down the same vampire all over again as well as [[VideoGame/CastlevaniaRondoOfBlood one of his descendants as his echo fighter]], a [[VideoGame/MetroidPrime2Echoes corrupting entity formed by one of the aforementioned female space [=Bounty Hunter=]'s armors, her DNA and some sort of vaguely arachnoid monster]], [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening yet another blue-haired Warrior Prince]] [[spoiler:who also happens to be the father of the time-travelling swordswoman mentioned somewhere above]], an [[AdiposeRex obese]] and insane [[VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry crocodilian king]] with a bloodshot MadEye and multiple aliases, a [[VideoGame/AnimalCrossing clumsy but hard-working and adorable]] [[BarefootCartoonAnimal Shih Tzu]] secretary who is the assistant to the human mayor from [[WorldOfFunnyAnimals town populated with animals]] and fights with various common items like [[RodAndReelRepurposed a fishing rod]], party crackers or a broom, an [[Franchise/StreetFighter athletic American that happens to be the clone of the aforementioned Japanese martial artist]] but with [[PlayingWithFire fire power]] and a [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon fiery]] [[CombatPragmatism Combat Pragmatist]] [[CatsAreMean bipedat tiger]] wrestler with a flashy attitude, with a [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros potted carnivorous plant with feet, an extendable neck]] and [[PoisonousPerson a poisonous breath]] as an early-purchase bonus fighter. And there are DLC around the corner...

* ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' boasts [[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampires]], ghosts, aliens, were-creatures, witches, {{miko}}s, {{Catgirl}}s, [[PsychicPowers psychics]], [[NinjaMaid ninja maids]], {{shinigami}}, and much, much more. And every single one of these characters is a LittleMissBadass.
** Sometimes more than one of these combined into a single character. ''Imperishable Night'', for example, features a psychic moon rabbit as a boss, and ''Perfect Cherry Blossom'' has a dual katana wielding half-ghost gardener samurai.
** Even the {{mook}}s get their fair share. ''Subterranean Animism'' features [[ImplacableMan implacable]] [[NightOfTheLivingMooks zombie fairies]].
*** Subverted by ''Double Spoiler'', which notes that they're just normal fairies cosplaying as zombies.
** Notable major character example is Byakuren Hijiri, who is [[KungfuWizard Kungfu]] [[AllMonksKnowKungfu Buddhist]] [[NunTooHoly Nun]] [[OurMagesAreDifferent Wizard]] [[{{Transhuman}} Human]]-{{Youkai}} [[IncorruptiblePurePureness Pure]] [[AllLovingHero Messiah]] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking with Gradient Hair]]. [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools If this were a fanfic]], [[ParodySue people would have parodied her to no end]].

** Wily Beast and Weakest Creature introduces us to Saki Kurokoma, a [[WingedHumanoid winged]] [[{{Cowboy}} cowgirl]], leader of the spirit world equivalent to the yakuza, and implied to be the reincarnation of the horse of Japanese historical figure Prince Shoutoku (who is also in the franchise, resurrected and with a GenderFlip).

* ''VideoGame/UmaMusume'' does this a lot. All the playable characters start out as a combination of [[LittleBitBeastly horse girl]] and [[PassionateSportsGirl school athlete]], and then have extra traits added on - and on top of that, some of them get special event costumes which result in combinations such as [[{{Eagleland}} American]] [[MaskedLuchador Luchador]] [[BareFistedMonk Monk]] Horsegirl (El Condor Pasa) and [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire Vampire]] [[UnconventionalWeddingDress Bridal]] {{Assassin}} [[LittleSisterHeroine Little Sister]] Horsegirl (Rice Shower). Oh, and one more thing: they're based on, and named after, real-life racehorses.

* ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'', aside from having featured every other SuperRobot that may or may not have been mentioned on this page, adds many more in its own OriginalGeneration. Take [=RyuKoOh=] and [=KoRyuOh=], the Ancient Chinese [[TransformingMecha Transforming]] [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Dragon-Tiger]] [[SuperRobot Super Robots]]. And then there's Wodan Ymir, the [[EvilTwin Evil]] AlternateUniverse [[BackFromTheDead Undead]] [[HollywoodCyborg Robot]] [[CloningBlues Clone]] of a [[McNinja German Samurai]] in a [[HumongousMecha Giant Robot]].

* ''VideoGame/MonkeyIsland'' gives us [=LeChuck=], who's been a Ghost, Zombie, Demon, and giant statue, did I mention he's also a pirate? And in the latest game, he's been turned into a ''human''.

** Yoshimitsu is a RobinHood type suicidal Ninja [[RecycledInSpace FROM SPACE!]], whose [[ArtificialLimbs wooden arm]] is powered by [[SteamPunk "gears"]]. In the ''VideoGame/{{Tekken}}'' series, his successor started out with a [[ArtificialLimb bionic arm]], then took a liking for cyborg parts, and through his buddy Dr. B became a full-on Cyborg Ninja by ''Tekken 3''.

** One notable example is the [[VideoGame/SonicRiders Babylon Rogues]], consisting of Jet the Hawk, Wave the Swallow, and Storm the Albatross. Apparently they're legendary bird genie thieves [[spoiler: [[RecycledInSpace FROM SPACE!]]]] And they race on Extreme Gear, which in its most common form is, essentially, hoverboards.

* The Protoss Dark Templar from ''VideoGame/StarCraft'' are psionic alien ninja. [[RecycledInSpace With spaceships]]. And cyborgs. Who fight giant bugs.

* ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro'': Gaul is a DualWielding spellcaster baboon with a [[EyeBeams laser eye]]. And he steals all your mana before you fight him. No wonder he's the ape king. Love or hate the series, you have to admit that's just ''awesome''.

** ''Deadlocked'' gives us both zombie ''and'' ghost robots, and sometimes both.

* ''S.C.A.R.S'' is not just a racing game. It's not just a racing game set in the future. It's not just a racing game set in the future with animal themed cars. It is Super Computer Animal Racing [[GameWithinAGame Simulator]]. With weapons.

*** The dungeon mini boss for the Sandship [[spoiler:and Sky Keep]] is a robot skeleton pirate. The Sandship itself is an aversion, however; it's a sea ship that happened to get stuck in sand after the region it's in dried up into a desert, with Link having to visit the past with time-warping Timeshift Stones to access the lush past and to be able to sail the sea that is dried up in the present.
*** The same dungeon's boss is a bizarre Kraken/Cyclops/Medusa hybrid. [[http://68.media.tumblr.com/b274509c0d9569f07e50e4910ece1976/tumblr_n8flt4mFaI1qj8pu4o1_1280.jpg Its design]] looks [[NightmareRetardant less than awesome]], to say the least.

** Notable major character example is Byakuren Hijiri, who is [[KungfuWizard Kungfu]] [[AllMonksKnowKungfu Buddhist]] [[NunTooHoly Nun]] [[WitchSpecies Wizard]] [[{{Transhuman}} Human]]-{{Youkai}} [[IncorruptiblePurePureness Pure]] [[AllLovingHero Messiah]] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking with Gradient Hair]]. [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools If this were a fanfic]], [[ParodySue people would have parodied her to no end]].

* Quite a few bosses in ''VideoGame/{{Alundra 2}}''. It has such things as: a giant fire-breathing cyborg cat, cyborg minotaur, giant robot spider, huge crocodile with a giant mushroom growing on it's back, orange shark with vacuum-powers, statues based on Egyptian gods with laser eyes, heart of a robot whale which has a huge drill on its snout, an anthropomorphic tiger which can turn itself invincible, a cyborg mantis with a monocle, a purple cyborg pirate gorilla and lastly, a robot warlock with a detachable head.

** Garchomp gets honorable mention. Why? Because it's a [[ThreateningShark shark]] crossed with a [[EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs dinosaur]], [[OurDragonsAreDifferent dragon]], and a ''[[CoolPlane jet]]'' (With torpedoes on its head!). Unsurprisingly, it's considered a GameBreaker.

** That's not counting the drops from previous rosters, including a baby version of the [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} lightning shooting mouse]], the [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} psychic cat-kangaroo-rat]] GlassCannon who happens to be a clone of a small cat-like thing who is the one all creatures from it's world evolved from, a [[PlayingWithFire fire-sword wielding]] [[VideoGame/FireEmblemElibe literally red-haired Japanese-speaking teenage military commander/noble]] who can possibly be [[HalfHumanHybrid part ice dragon]], a [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime younger but not so cartoonish alter-ego of the aforementioned warrior elf]], and so on. The second game even introduced an AxCrazy-laughing twin of the above giant sentient [[WhiteGloves glove]].
