10	----
11	* ''Franchise/AceAttorney'':
12	** Apollo Justice. His fear of everything and style of lawyering makes him so stupidly cute one begins to wonder how he became a lawyer in the first place. Also, he fanboys over Phoenix [[spoiler: until finding out he forged evidence]], and his excitement over talking to Vera could be comparable to a high school student on a first date.
13	** Adrian Andrews takes CuteClumsyGirl to a whole new level by breaking the Kurain Sacred Urn by dropping it in ''paint''. There's also her dependency, which makes her follow the advice of someone else and imitate their personality (as seen with her mentor, Celeste Inpax). Plus, the way she tries to act all tough-as-nails like her mentor makes her more of an example of SugarAndIcePersonality rather than your typical {{Stoic}}.
14	** Miles Edgeworth often behaves as adorable dork, especially when it comes to trying to loosen up and when he interacts with his [[ClosetGeek not-so-secret love of the Steel Samurai]].
15	** Ron [=DeLite=]. This guy loses his cool whenever his wife flirts with him, and has a hard time talking without trailing off. He may act like a GentlemanThief, but he's really this deep down, especially his reaction on getting a letter from his wife, Desirée.
16	** Phoenix Wright himself qualifies as well, to some extent. Especially when he's younger and with a cold. One such example is when he tries talking to Iris. He can barely keep his cool (because she's the twin sister of his former ex-girlfriend) [[spoiler: Actually, she impersonated Dahlia and was really the true "Dollie" Phoenix adored.]] He also denies being a fan of the Steel Samurai, despite having numerous merchandise, much like Edgeworth. Let's face it, this man is just as adorkable, if not more so than Edgeworth due to his regular display of awkwardness.
17	** Franziska von Karma isn't immune, either, once she starts to [[DefrostingIceQueen defrost]]. Though, her moments are much more subtle than the others. At one point in Case 3-5, she asks Phoenix (in a ''completely sincere'' tone, based on his inner commentary when he answers her) if there used to be a lively port town along a river... which is at the bottom of a deep canyon in the mountains. Phoenix notes in the same case that "she's so openly hostile, it's almost cute", which implies that at this point, she's actively trying to be as [[{{Tsundere}} tsun tsun]] as possible. She's strongly implied to have a severe InferioritySuperiorityComplex thanks to her father and brother, and once you see [[BeneathTheMask behind the mask]] to that insecure side, she's a slightly awkward young girl with a poor understanding of emotions, something even her [[TheStoic stoic]] brother, Miles, understands.
18	%%* Edgar in ''VideoGame/TheAct''. Totally shy but sweet.
19	* A few characters from the ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing'' series may count as this: The biggest is Isabelle, your assistant in ''New Leaf''. Always eager to help you out in Mayoral duties, but can be a bit scatterbrained. Blathers the owl is often seen sleeping, but will talk your ear off if you donate something to the museum. He's also terrified of insects. Quite a few of the villagers may also count as some of them, like the Cranky, Snooty or Smug villagers, who try to put on an air of aloofness or crabbiness, but can be real softies once befriended.
20	* The ''VideoGame/AtelierSeries'' is known for its emphasis on {{Moe}} characters, so it has a few adorable dorks:
21	** [[VideoGame/AtelierRoronaTheAlchemistOfArland Rorolina Frixell]] combines CuteClumsyGirl, GenkiGirl, and GeniusDitz into something extremely cute. It's hard not to find her endearing when she [[TheNicknamer tries to give a nickname to everyone she encounters]].
22	** [[VideoGame/AtelierAyeshaTheAlchemistOfDusk Ayesha Altugle]], a friendly and cheerful, but also shy and awkward girl who often stutters her way through conversations. She's considered one of the cutest characters in the series, which is saying a lot.
23	* ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie'': Bottles the Short-Sighted Mole, with his big glasses and vast amounts of knowledge.
24	* Within the fandom for ''VideoGame/BeyondGoodAndEvil,'' TheBigGuy Double H has a not-insignificant FanGirl following due to his bumbling-but-sweet goofball-spy nature. His adorkability is especially pronounced due to [[TopHeavyGuy what]] [[SpaceMarine he]] ''[[OlderSidekick is.]]''
25	* Creator/BioWare really seems to like this trope; ''VideoGame/StarWarsTheOldRepublic'' features several companions for player characters of varying degrees of this trope, especially if the romance option is taken.
26	* ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'':
27	** Noel Vermillion. She writes poetry, but gets embarrassed reading it to others. She loves pandas. She is constantly apologising to people (in a sweet way, not an annoying way). She's one of the cutest girls in video games, and the most awkward.
28	** Makoto Nanaya, on top of [[MsFanservice being smoking hot]], is very much a big kid at heart, having a love for dinosaurs, HumongousMecha, and sweets.
29	** Humorously (and tragically enough only briefly), [[NinetiesAntiHero Ragna]] in this exchange in Rachel's ''Chronophantasma'' gag reel, when Celica admits to having a crush on him:
30	--->'''Celica''': "I like Ragna? Of course I like Ragna! You didn't know that?"
31	--->''Ragna''': "Well... I-I didn't think you ''hated'' me, but... when you put it so frankly, I... I'm getting embarrassed, here."
32	%%** Tsubaki Yayoi, mostly due to CannotSpitItOut with Jin.
33	* In ''VideoGame/BlazeUnion'', it turns out that most of the Imperial Army fits under this description, but none more than emotionally vulnerable, heartbreakingly kind and eager-to-please Gulcasa at age 17. [[UnwantedHarem His allies (and even some of his enemies!) seem to think so too]].
34	* ''VideoGame/Borderlands2'': Gaige has "Excessive Adorability" on her WantedPoster. She's a tiny, slightly built nerd with GirlishPigtails who speaks in LeetLingo, references ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'', and built her very own robot to deal with bullies (and may have overengineered it a ''little''). One of her ECHO casts has her berate her father for bringing in cocoa while she's trying to come across as badass, then drink it anyway. This being ''Borderlands 2'', she's still a maniac who gets a PowerHigh from building Anarchy stacks, but she's still pretty cute.
35	* ''VideoGame/BoxxyQuestTheGatheringStorm'' has Tyalie, whose sincere enthusiasm and nonstop gamer-isms make her a poster child of this trope. Cornelia also has her moments. When [[spoiler:Arianna joins the team]] in the True Ending, Cornelia literally ''squees'' at the prospect of having [[spoiler:a new A.I. to be friends with.]]
36	* ''VideoGame/{{Bugsnax}}'':
37	** Filbo is a sweet-natured but somewhat clumsy and socially unskilled Grumpus who wants everyone to get along but his ExtremeDoormat tendencies make it very hard for him to keep everyone under control. But that doesn't stop him from being optimistic and determined. He also owns a bunch of woolen frogs.
38	** Gramble is a gentle if a somewhat overprotective (though not without a good reason) Bugsnax rancher who knits his own sweaters and has a soft and slightly awkward voice with a southern accent.
39	** Snorpy. He is a socially-awkward, always paranoid and nerdy kind of guy who often gets flustered when someone mentions his crush Chandlo.
40	** Triffany has her moments, thanks to her obsession with archaelogy, sweet personality and [[MinnesotaNice cute accent and dialect]].
41	* ''VideoGame/{{Control}}'':
42	** Jesse Faden. When she isn't snarking at the events around her or kicking ass, she tends to be very excitable and nearly toes the line of having NoSocialSkills due to the bizarre things around her. Despite the horrors she has to face and fight and her lack of trust towards the staff, she's so thrilled about the intrigues of the Oldest House that she doesn't even want to leave. Taken to a whole new level when a side mission has her [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext talk to plants]].
43	-->'''Jesse:''' I wish my leaves were as pretty as yours.\
44	'''Jesse:''' Do you have any family? I have a brother, I miss him a lot.
45	** Dr. Casper Darling is a cheerful bow-tie wearing nerd.
46	** Emily Pope ''loves'' science, and she's energetic about expressing this love in an almost excessively wordy way, even as she's surrounded by danger. Even Jesse warms up to her as an earnest ally within the span of minutes.
47	* ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot'':
48	** The title character is a goofy HeroicMime who makes cute Happy Dances.
49	** His sister Coco is a cute, perky, and kind-hearted teenage girl who likes science, but is often shown to be perfectly happy to participate in her brother's goofiness.
50	** Krunk has some hilariously endearing moments, such as his amazement at the yoyo Crash gives him (and his subsequently getting tangled up in it), or his failed attempts to handstand in his Nitro Fueled podium animation; both of which result in a goofy smile.
51	%%* ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'': Lucca.
52	%%* ''VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay'': Rodent.
53	* ''VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair'': Chiaki Nanami is a GeniusDitz GamerChick who is so invested in her gaming, she forgets to do things like eat, sleep, or even ''breathe'', which results in her often falling asleep in the middle of conversations. She also pauses between sentences and will sometimes end a statement with [[VerbalTic “…I think.”]] Her [[NoSocialSkills lack of social skills]] is so bad that she’s even hesitant to pet animals, as she has no idea how they’ll react and is freaked out by how warm they are.
54	* ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'':
55	** Lancer is just a genuinely friendly child who happens to be on the side of evil.
56	** Ralsei is a big fuzzy pushover whose reaction to Kris hugging him is to basically be reduced to a silent, blushing wreck.
57	** Alphys is the same dork she was in ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'', but as a school teacher.
58	** Noelle is a GamerChick and a ShrinkingViolet who [[CrushBlush blushes deeply]] when Susie is around.
59	* In ''VideoGame/DetectivesUnited'', James Blackthorne is this (as he also is in his origin series, ''Haunted Hotel''). He's a little shy, very nerdy, and has a sweet, cute appearance and the fashion sense of a man who probably got dressed in the dark. Even when dressed up formally, he looks dorky in an uncomfortable-looking suit with a bow tie. He's also got a very eager, earnest personality and is TheComicallySerious.
60	* ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'': Kormac, your Templar companion, is usually a gung-ho warrior who is all about justice and protecting the innocent. But whenever he's around Eirena, the Enchantress of the group, he instantly becomes a shy, tongue-tied, adorable mess who CannotSpitItOut.
61	* ''Franchise/DragonAge'' has at least one adorkable character in every major installment:
62	** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'':
63	*** Alistair, from the way he quips at Morrigan to his stories about teasing the cloistered monks who raised him. He's also a Templar trained to murder mages who turn into abominations.
64	*** Leliana is incredibly adorkable, especially in her romance sub-plot. She's extraordinarily girly and goofy for someone who's trained in the arts of [[spoiler: theft, seduction and murder]]. She also can acquire a nug and name it "Schmooples".
65	*** Zevran displays dorky attractiveness if you venture into his romance sub plot. Normally a dashing Lothario, cold to emotions as his assassin life requires him to be, actual love is something he's not used to dealing with and it shows.
66	*** Cullen Rutherford, during the mage origin. He has a ''very'' obvious crush on a female Amell/Surana, and a conversation with him will involve him nervously fumbling and outright ''running away'' in embarrassment if she flirts with him. Then the Circle gets invaded by demons... and let's just say this changes.
67	** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'' continues the tradition with Merrill, who's a sweet, shy MotorMouth who's ObliviousToLove, tends to put her foot in her mouth, and is an [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny easily distracted]] CloudCuckoolander prone to non sequitur observations ("I see sparrows in the rafters!"). She's also a FishOutOfWater, obsessed with her research into elven history ([[BreadEggsMilkSquick and dark magics]]), and a [[TheExile social outcast]] and {{Woobie}} who just gets woobier as the game progresses.
68	** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' has, [[NotSoAboveItAll believe it or not]], [[LadyOfWar Cassandra]]. Once the player grows closer to her, either as friends or a LoveInterest, she lets her tough exterior down and reveals an idealistic romantic underneath. This becomes especially apparent when it's revealed that she's a huge fan of Varric's books, and particularly his smutty romance serials, which he considers to be [[OldShame his worst work]]. She'll even ask you to get Varric to write another because the last one ended on a cliffhanger, and he'll do it just because he finds the whole thing hilarious.
69	*** Cullen (again), the commander of the Inquisition's military, is as adorkable in personal matters as he is confident on the battlefield. This is only pronounced if he is romanced but if he is, the guy has this in spades. Amusingly, [[PlayerCharacter the Inquisitor]] who romances him has almost the same level of adorkability - a rare thing for a Creator/BioWare protagonist.
70	*** The ''Jaws of Hakkon'' DLC adds Professor Bram Kenric, a visiting staff member from the University of Orlais. He makes terrible jokes, gets so absorbed in his reading that he has to be stopped from walking off ledges while his nose is stuck in a book, and gushes excitedly about history. He's also very cute with a lovely Scottish accent, and according to Scout Harding (with whom he has some slight ShipTease), he makes a delightful noise when startled.
71	* ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}'':
72	** ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'':
73	*** 10 of Spades, an NCR FriendlySniper. He's the shortest adult character in the game, one of the friendliest, has comic books under his bed, stutters even when talking about how much ass he kicks, and wears thick NerdGlasses. This is true even in-universe, as he has a maxed out Charisma of 10.
74	*** Arcade Gannon has shades of this, especially when [[StraightGay you use the Confirmed Bachelor perk]], or when [[BadLiar he tries to play dumb]] and cover up his involvement with [[spoiler:the Enclave.]]
75	---> '''Arcade (when asked about his familiarty with vertibirds):''' ''(shifty eyes)'' Uh, what does ''anyone'' know about them? Big... flying machines, right? ''(nervous laugh)'' Crazy helicopters. So ''weird.''
76	** Piper Wright, IntrepidReporter to the Commonwealth Wastelands in ''VideoGame/Fallout4'', puts on the air of a cocky, devil-may-care journalist who'll leave no stone unturned in her quest for the truth. However, she quickly turns into a flustered, stuttering, babbling wreck whenever the PlayerCharacter successfully flirts with her. Certain dialogue options also reveal her to be a bit of a comic book geek.
77	* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'':
78	** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'':
79	*** Zack Fair in the Compilation, especially the prequels ''VideoGame/CrisisCore'' and ''VideoGame/BeforeCrisis''. Zack is one of the strongest characters in the series, but he STILL manages to have oh so many adorably silly moments. Even pre-Nibelheim (i.e., sane) Sephiroth apparently isn't immune to Zack's adorkable qualities, as seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=feQQ_OUqbXE here]].
80	*** Cloud and Tifa can both be rather adorkable at times, when they aren't moping about. Especially when moments of sexual tension hit and their shyness and discomfort comes out full blast.
81	*** Aerith with her [[PluckyGirl incurable optimism]], [[DeadpanSnarker snarkiness]], and punctuated by [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments her bizarre rescue plan in Wall Market]]. She tends to flitter between this and ManicPixieDreamGirl.
82	** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX'':
83	*** Vivi. He's sweet, kind, TheWoobie, clumsy, and adorable. He fits this like a glove.
84	*** Zidane may act like a total flirt, but deep down, he's this. Particularly the way he acts around Garnet/Dagger and his boyish attitude.
85	** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyX'': Tidus is cheerful, a total Keet, and CannotSpitItOut in front of Yuna. Square Enix loves this trope.
86	** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'': Snow freakin' Villiers. Big, tough, friendly, cheerful, boyish hopeless romantic... aww. (Someone at Creator/SquareEnix definitely loves this trope.)
87	** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'': G'raha Tia, especially [[spoiler:after his present-day self and his Crystal Exarch self are merged]]. While already selfless and good-natured, [[spoiler:being freed from his duties and being able to go on the adventure he's always dreamed of really highlights his awkwardness and [[AscendedFanboy enthusiasm]].]]
88	%%* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII'': Laguna [[VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy Loire]], his relationships with both of his love interests are almost based on this.
89	* ''VideoGame/FireEmblem'':
90	** Azelle from ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar'' is cute and shy.
91	** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemTheBlazingBlade'':
92	*** Canas has everything the trope needs. [[NerdGlasses Nerdy monocle?]] Check. [[NoSocialSkills Talks too much with awkward pauses and casual stuttering]]? Check. Cute VerbalTic? Check (Says "Ah/Oh" before any sentence). [[{{Moe}} Overly polite and smiles all the time?]] Check. [[http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080707162200/fireemblem/images/4/44/Canas.jpg Official artwork]] as TheKlutz? [[OverlyLongGag Check check check...]]
93	*** Erk's SugarAndIcePersonality results in a lot of cuteness whenever his solemn and taciturn demeanor cracks.
94	** Soren in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance'' if the player bothers to dig up his back story to go along with his personality.
95	** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'':
96	*** There's [[TheStoic Lon'qu]], who is a total badass on the battlefield and turns into a stuttering mess whenever he's near a woman.
97	*** "[[CoolMask Marth]]!" [[spoiler:[=/=] Lucina]], who is a ''complete'' badass [[OneManArmy capable of solo'ing entire chapters]] but turns into a socially-awkward wreck of pure huggability when put into any kind of social situation.
98	*** SociallyAwkwardHero Chrom tends to become a shy, nervous, adorkable mess during his romantic supports. He ''cannot'' keep his foot out of his mouth around women (especially [[PlayerCharacter Robin]]).
99	*** Stahl is adorkable due to his [[RidiculouslyAverageGuy ridiculously average]] NiceGuy nature (albiet one with [[BigEater a monstrous appetite]]).
100	*** There's also [[spoiler:Priam, the descendant of the [[VideoGame/FireEmblemPathOfRadiance Hero of the Blue Flames]]]]. Of course, he's a massive badass with a great skill set, but when he starts developing feelings for a Female Robin, he starts [[LuminescentBlush blushing like mad]] and even yells "HUZZAH!" when she returns his feelings.
101	** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemFates'':
102	*** Takumi and Leo are both strong contenders. While they each try to project an aura of maturity, they are actually quite dorky. Takumi turns into a stuttering mess during his supports with [[spoiler:[[MsFanservice Camilla]]]], clearly shows his fear of the Faceless over his vehement denials, and is generally easy to fluster with compliments. Despite his perfectionist tendencies, Leo has the odd habit of accidentally wearing his clothes inside out and completely freaks out when it is brought up. In his attempts to have his older siblings praise him, he also often comes off as a starving puppy.
103	*** Our protagonist Corrin. While he/she has a great amount of skill and charisma as a warrior, s/he's ''so'' socially inept but ''so'' well-meaning it comes across as endearing. And then you have him/her S-support someone and watch him/her either a) fluster his/her way through a confession or b) get extraordinary flustered by their confession.
104	** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'':
105	*** Ferdinand Von Aegir, who hammily announces who he is every time you select him in battle and much of his supports involve him being comically oblivious to the sarcasm his fellow House members throw his way and he is overall a very enthusiastic and earnest individual. His SitcomArchNemesis even admits that Ferdinand's greatest strength is the ability to remain positive and confident and thus keep up the spirits of everyone else.
106	*** Alois, who acts as a CoolUncle figure for Byleth and has a penchant for telling terrible puns. He even manages to make ''Dimitri'' laugh with his Dad-jokes.
107	*** Annette Fantine Dominic: chronic overachiever who needs to be told what the problem with "trying hard to not try so hard" is. Singer of goofy songs about food when she thinks she's alone. [[LethalChef Exploder of kitchens.]] Also she's afraid of the dark.
108	*** [[TheComicallySerious Ingrid Brandl Galatea]]: despite her usually mature, serious and level-headed nature, she occasionally has some rather awkward moments including having scolded Sylvain for coming on to a scarecrow and her "sweet, sweet granny" loudly enough for other students to hear as well as having been a victim of Dorothea's teasing. Ingrid also forgets herself in the presence of delicious food.
109	* ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys2'': The Phone Guy ends up lapsing into this trope when he's talking about how much he loves the animatronics.
110	* Rief in ''VideoGame/GoldenSunDarkDawn''. [[TheQuietOne Soft-spoken]], [[GentlemanAndAScholar scholarly]], wears NerdGlasses and a bowl cut, and if his intro scene is anything to go by, he has a touch of the {{Keet}} and a bad sense of self-preservation, as his reaction to a Psynergy Vortex is to get excited and [[DontTouchItYouIdiot take a closer look]].
111	* Naomi in ''VideoGame/GoodbyeVolcanoHigh''. An adorable, timid bookworm girl with glasses and poor public speaking skills, her awkward interactions with the other characters made her endearing to audiences. Boosting her popularity as the game progresses is the revelation that [[spoiler:she's in love with Fang and is the secret admirer that's been helping Fang out throughout the game]].
112	* Regardless of the game he is in (''VideoGame/RageOfBahamut'', ''VideoGame/GranblueFantasy'', and ''VideoGame/{{Shadowverse}}'' - all of which are set in a shared universe and features [[ReusedCharacterDesign re-used characters]] by ''Creator/{{Cygames}}''), Grimnir still maintains this characteristic, and it is what makes him popular! It certainly helps being a handsome man who occasionally delivers [[LargeHam hammy]] long monologues and unexpected squealing when meeting other characters. His infamous line, one which is present in all three games has [[BadassCreed him monologue about being the God of War and the Dancing Storm]].
113	--> "Engrave this into your heart! I am the god of war, the dancing storm, Griiiiiiimnir!"
114	* ''VideoGame/HarvestMoon'':
115	** Being one part DatingSim, no game is complete without at least one single character who falls into this category. Among both males and females and across the series, they include HotLibrarian Mary, shy [[TheWoobie Woobie]] Cliff, handsome glasses-wearing Rick, Louis, and Elliot, Mary {{Expy}} Sabrina, Shea, Luke (both of which aren't ''nerdy'' but are definitely both hilariously and cutely awkward), and ShrinkingViolet Candace.
116	** ''VideoGame/StoryOfSeasons2014'' introduces Nadi - the {{Tsundere}} archetype who's ridiculously sweet and goofy at times, and Lillie, the cheerful and outgoing weather girl who stammers and blushes ''extremely'' easily when matters involving love come up.
117	** [[spoiler:Kuruna]] in the spinoff ''VideoGame/RuneFactory3'' has moments of this. [[TrademarkFavoriteFood Usually around cake and chocolate.]]
118	* In ''VideoGame/IWasATeenageExocolonist'', Nomi-Nomi is the most exuberant among Sol's peers. They're almost always happy to see Sol and even flap their arms to greet them, they gush about their fandoms without stopping for breath, and they certainly enjoy Vertumnalia's pop culture trivia contests. Nomi also squees as they ship their avatar with Sol's in ''[[FictionalVideoGame Legends of Avamar]]'' and gets adorably flustered if Sol dates them in real life.
119	%%* This trait is undoubtedly a good part of [[VideoGame/JakAndDaxter Daxter's]] charm.
120	* ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising'': Pit, despite being a competent fighter, has an upbeat and somewhat childish personality. He likes to look tough, but he's such a cute kid that you usually can't help but chuckle at his attempts. When [[spoiler:Phosphora]] flirts with him, Pit just loses all composure and forms a LuminescentBlush, to the point where [[MissionControl Palutena]] has to remind him that [[spoiler:Phosphora]] is his enemy. It's no wonder the other characters [[ButtMonkey make fun of him so much.]] [[spoiler: But when the [[KnightOfCerebus Chaos Kin]] shows up, it's a surprise Pit isn't in a HeroicBSOD and still fights. When you see everything Pit's standing for [[BreakTheCutie falling apart]], [[TheWoobie you just want to give him a hug.]]]]
121	* If you are a main character in a ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' game, you are probably some shade of Adorkable.
122	** Sora, especially in the first game. In the later games, he [[EmoTeen Takes A Level In Emo]], but he still has a distinct boyish enthusiasm and optimism.
123	** Ventus is possibly even more adorkable than Sora [[spoiler: given his nature]], which is only highlighted when he interacts with Zack and Hercules.
124	** Riku gets a shade of this in ''Dream Drop Distance'' when Shiki starts flirting with him and he's utterly flabbergasted. Lampshaded when she asks if he "gets out much".
125	** Roxas and Xion, when they're not having their bouts of melancholy, take after Sora and Ven (obviously.)
126	%%** Demyx fits in the fandom's eyes, though he's more of a lazy jackass in canon.
127	%%** Lea in ''Dream Drop Distance''.
128	* Graham, the protagonist of ''VideoGame/KingsQuest2015'', was quite conventionally attractive as a young lad, [[NonActionGuy if a little on the scrawny side]], and he had this rather amusing habit of excitedly bouncing around and waving his arms while speculating the awesome properties of some cool things he faces on his adventures, such as that [[ImpossiblyCoolWeapon huge impressive-looking scythe]] in [[ActionGirl Amaya]] [[TheBlacksmith Blackstone]]'s forge [[spoiler:that turns out to be just an overly ornate hedgetrimmer which gets discarded after one use]] and that strange potion being brewed in the [[CoolOldGuy Hobblepot]]'s potion shop [[spoiler:which turns out to be tooth-whitening agent... that just turns everything purple unless Graham can get them the right ingredients]].
129	** Quite humourously, Neese, [[DecompositeCharacter one of the two Princesses Valanice]] and possible love interest for Graham who makes an appearance in Episode 3, is this trope in ''[[StrangeMindsThinkAlike exactly]]'' [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike the same manner as Graham is]], even down to throwing the same excited fits.
130	--->'''Neese''': Are we... ''Are we''... Are we having ''an adventure''!? [[MotorMouth Are we going to solve riddles of a Sphinx!? Is there going to be a labyrinth with a minotaur!? Will there be hijinks and will they involve bridles and snakes!?]] [[MundaneMadeAwesome CAN WE GET MATCHING FEATHERS!!??]]... Hehe, um, please?
131	* ''VideoGame/Left4Dead'':
132	** Ellis. He's a fairly outgoing {{Keet}}, but he gets so adorably tongue-tied talking to Zoey.
133	** Louis, with his eternal optimism in the face of zombie hordes, hopeless odds, soul crushing despair and Francis, would seem to qualify.
134	* ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'':
135	** Shad from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess'' -- a few fans have speculated that he may be some sort of Hyrulean {{Expy}} of Otacon. He's also supposedly very similar to Nintendo of America translator Bill Trinen; goodness only knows what that says about Bill.
136	** Link from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker''. His toon design, closeness with his little sister, as well as his overall expressions help generate this.
137	** Link at the beginning of ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword Skyward Sword]]'', notably when he is with Zelda, who seems to have this opinion of him when he holds up her sailcloth. By the end, he has taken several hundred thousand [[TookALevelInBadass levels in badass.]]
138	** ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild Breath of the Wild]]'' has not only Link, but Princess Zelda herself. Link hums while cooking and cheers when his meal is finished, sometimes has the option to make pretty corny puns, and, if he isn't wearing a shirt, will take time to admire his own physique in a very humorous fashion. Princess Zelda is a BadassBookworm who, upon seeing a frog, catches up to it on her knees and presents it to Link with a "Ta-Dah!" before excitedly trying to convince Link to eat it to study its effects.
139	* ''VideoGame/LegoCityUndercover'' has Frank Honey, the hilariously inept police officer who has boundless optimism and an almost puppy-like excitement for his job despite screwing up pretty much every assignment he's given.
140	* ''VideoGame/LegoDCSuperVillains'' has a surprising example in Scarecrow of all people, sure he's presented as an example [[UsedToBeASweetKid in his backstory]],but aside from the occasional interpretation in fandom (often of the DracoInLeatherPants variety, but not always), you'd be hard press to find anyone who'd call him this unironically. But due to the game's LighterAndSofter nature, he's really more of a spooky dork who's a huge fanboy of Sinestro.
141	* Riki, the protagonist of ''VisualNovel/LittleBusters''. Shy, [[DudeLooksLikeALady girly-looking]] {{Woobie}} who is perfectly polite and earnest when it comes to the girls around him but has problems with getting out of the shadow and safety of his [[ChildhoodFriend childhood friends]] and gets [[LuminescentBlush easily flustered]] whenever anyone teases him? It's no wonder so many girls end up hanging around him.
142	* Kazuma Kiryu from the ''VideoGame/LikeADragon'' series has some shades of this. While he's a tough-as-nails, intimidating ex-yakuza, he also gets [[SeriousBusiness extremely passionate to a silly degree]] about whatever hobbies he picks up in each game.
143	** To an even greater degree, his successor Ichiban Kasuga starting from ''VideoGame/YakuzaLikeADragon''. He is an excitable goofball who loves ''VideoGame/DragonQuest'' so much he sees the world in terms of random encounters and legendary heroes, Ichiban is 110% into everything that catches his interest.
144	* ''VideoGame/{{Lunar}}'' series:
145	** Alex is a Dragonmaster fanboy who gets to live his dreams and become an awesome hero. Despite this he is humble to the point of bashfulness and lets his girlfriend boss him around. Though that's probably wise [[spoiler:since she is a [[PhysicalGod goddess incarnate]].]]
146	** Hiro, the protagonist of ''VideoGame/LunarEternalBlue'', likewise is a fan of Dragonmaster Alex. At one point, he talks a friend into playing lookout for him so he can get on the helm of a certain CoolBoat and pretend he's Dragonmaster Alex without anyone making fun of him. Of course, this is actually just pretext -- Hiro's ''actually'' after a one-on-one chat with his love interest. But it wouldn't have worked if he didn't like to pretend he's Dragonmaster Alex sometimes.
147	** White Knight Leo starts out as a stern and capable commander (though frequently PlayedForLaughs). As the story progresses, he softens up and shows a really considerate and cute side -- he has a weird fixation on justice and being a super-hero. When he is forced to choose between the letter of the law or the spirit of the law during a major turning-point of the story, [[spoiler:he puts on a funny mask and pretends to be a vigilante named "Mystere" instead. His reactions as everyone, one by one, see through his terrible disguise are ridiculous and cute.]]
148	* ''VideoGame/{{Magium}}'': Flower is a justified example. After fusing with Illuna twenty years ago, she has physically and mentally stopped aging, thus never maturing past ten despite being technically almost in her [[OlderThanTheyLook thirties]].
149	* ''VideoGame/MapleStory'': Evan is a bright and cheerful AdorablyPrecociousChild who finds himself shoved into the role of the leader of five of the most powerful LivingLegends in Maple World. Even as a powerhouse himself, he's easily embarrassed, gets flustered when praised, and stumbles over himself in conversation.
150	-->'''Evan:''' ''[After being declared the leader by the other Legends]'' M-me?! Uh... well, I... don't know if I'm qualified, but I'll try... Erm, I mean...
151	* ''Franchise/MassEffect'':
152	** Tali'Zorah in the [[VideoGame/MassEffect2 second game]]. Particularly if you play a male Shepard and go for the romance with her. Not to mention her hitting TheWoobie status during her loyalty mission.
153	** Garrus Vakarian. As above, playing a Shepard of the opposite gender and romancing him makes this particularly noticeable, but it's present all the same.
154	** If you didn't romance either of the above, they [[PairTheSpares hook up]] in [[VideoGame/MassEffect3 part three]]. The scene where you catch them together may set off your CutenessProximity.
155	** Liara T'Soni, who is able to be romanced by both sexes. A good portion of her romance in the first game has her being easily flustered by Shepard's romances and accidentally, and quite humorously, putting her foot in her mouth. Both attributes were found adorable. And, a lot like Tali, she's a massive [[TheWoobie woobie.]]
156	** Legion, if you talk to him and ask why he's wearing your old armor. He reacts with what seems to be the geth version of a blush and then says: [[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove "No data available."]]
157	** Samantha Traynor, the chess-loving comm specialist in the third Mass Effect game, fits this definition to a T. Sadly, for those playing the male Shepard, she's lesbian, but if you play the female version, she does a lot more than just play chess with Shepard.
158	** Maya Brooks in the ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' "Citadel" DLC, maybe more so than any other character in the franchise. At least [[spoiler: she appears to be.]]
159	** The [[spoiler:humanoid version]] of EDI in [=ME3=], especially in her awkward attempts at humor, her nerdy responses to questions like "What are you thinking?" and, definitely, her adorkable [[spoiler: attempts at AI/human romance with Joker]].
160	* ''VideoGame/MetalGear'':
161	** Big Boss (mostly in his younger appearances). He [[CompanionCube irrationally loves boxes]], is scared by horror movies, and believes in Santa because he brought him presents. There's also a scene in ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater Snake Eater]]'' where he geeks out over a [[GunPorn highly-modified]] M1911 pistol... [[IgnoreTheFanservice ignoring]] the half-naked woman that brought him the gun in the first place.
162	** Otacon, ''especially'' in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsOfThePatriots''. His backstory and the events of the game make him a huge {{Woobie}}, and he becomes easily flustered and has a soft manner of speaking. He has crushes on both Sniper Wolf in the first game and Naomi in the fourth [[spoiler:who both end up dying in front of him as he cries pathetically]].
163	** Ocelot could almost be considered this in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater'', where he appears as a young GRU Major who tries incredibly hard to be cool, from adopting his signature [[RevolversAreJustBetter revolver]] at a young Big Boss' suggestion to doing incredibly complex and almost silly GunTwirling.
164	** For both Otacon and Ocelot, the {{Webcomic/Hiimdaisy}} comics dialed this trait up, making Otacon even more of a {{Woobie}} and Ocelot into a ButtMonkey who makes his [[WordOfGay crush]] on Big Boss even more obvious.
165	* ''VideoGame/MetroidOtherM'': Anthony Higgs is a charming jokester who always treats Samus with respect, and it's topped off by him always [[FunPersonified being in a good mood]] to help bring levity to missions. The Japanese fanbase often takes these dorky traits and make him {{Moe}} in fan art.
166	* ''VideoGame/{{Mother}}'':
167	** Jeff from ''VideoGame/EarthBound1994'', with that [[CuteBookworm suit, glasses, bow tie, bowl haircut]]...and he has TONS of fangirls.
168	** There's also Lloyd from the [[VideoGame/EarthboundBeginnings prequel,]] too.
169	** Duster from ''VideoGame/Mother3'' also counts. He may be a skilled HandicappedBadass thief who could probably kick your ass, but is also shown as being a bit bumbling and awkward. He is considered socially inept by the residents of Tazmily due to [[ReallyFondOfSleeping his unusual sleeping habits,]] considered a "moron" by his dad due to his occasional screw-ups just trying to do the best that he can, LOVES cheese and is an [[NiceGuy overall kind-hearted guy]] willing to do everything he can to help aid Lucas throughout his quest. These traits are what makes him a very endearing and lovable character among many fans.
170	* Guybrush Threepwood from the ''VideoGame/MonkeyIsland'' PC game series is quintessentially adorkable. His first line ever includes an overly exuberant "I wanna be a pirate!" - immediately exposing his adorkable lack of gruff and tough pirate attitude. In his first meeting with the beautiful pirate governor Elaine, he loses all power to speak coherently, uttering words like "blggw" and "dmnkly" (as the game was initially released in 1990, the jokes were in text).
171	%%* In ''{{Morenatsu}}'', almost all the male interests. Konousuke, in particular, but it's part of the overall appeal.
172	* Most of the characters of the ''VideoGame/MySims'' series qualify, but it '''especially''' holds true for any Sim who has [[{{Geek}} Geeky]] as a primary or secondary Interest.
173	** To put it into perspective: two of the most popular characters are [[CuteClumsyGirl Buddy]] and [[{{Goth}} Goth Boy]]. Buddy's primary Interest is Geeky (and has plenty of traits that drive it home), while Goth Boy has it as his secondary (and could probably be seen in his melodramatic nature and love of poetry).
174	* ''VideoGame/NamcoHigh'':
175	** Cousin, who has a good heart and isn't all that skilled at communicating clearly, comes off as this during most of the romances, especially the most awkward bits - stumbling, misunderstanding things, failing to get concepts out clearly, and especially failing to understand what's going on in many situations.
176	** Enthusiastic, chipper, skeptical and somewhat overzealous would-be gumshoe [[Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} Jane]], especially when blundering through inept conversations about weirdness she refuses to accept even exists;
177	** Meowkie, who has a near-perpetual awkward grimace and visible sweat, but is also adorable and extremely enthusiastic about her hall monitor duties (and [[TrademarkFavoriteFood tuna]]);
178	** Anti-Bravoman, whose overly dramatic and shadowy attitude hides someone who really, really loves to write terrible poetry;
179	** Military history nerd, bundle of nerves and bully target #1 Blue Max, whose pilot style does not prevent him from being forced to do Taira's homework. For bonus points, his grasp of military lingo includes phrases like "noon hundred hours (that's noon o'clock to you civilians)."
180	* ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'': Travis Touchdown. When he's outside of missions, he's like a big grown up nerd who has to keep on doing his best to live a normal life despite being a total badass assassin.
181	* ''VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}'' has Reinhardt, Mei, Mercy, and Tracer.
182	** Reinhardt is a 61-year-old man who loves listening to classics like the Hoff, reminiscing on his hair when he was younger, and will ask D.Va, a ''19-year-old professional gamer from South Korea'' of all people for an autograph. Mei is a scientist who is never seen without her adorable smile, optimistic outlook, and her cute sidekick robot, Snowball.
183	* ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'':
184	** Katsuya Suou from ''VideoGame/Persona2'': ''Eternal Punishment'' is a cop who wonders if the penal code applies to demons, and ''he will even interrogate them as a contact option!'' Her also has a HUGE crush on [[spoiler: Maya Amano]], and because he's got a crippling case of CannotSpitItOut, he calls her [[spoiler: Ms. Amano]], even towards the end of the game.
185	** ''VideoGame/Persona3'':
186	*** Unexpectedly, Akihiko Sanada - who initially comes across as a cool, self-assured upperclassman and is the most sought-after boy at Gekkoukan High School - turns out to be ''completely'' adorkable when it comes to actually interacting with girls outside of SEES. The PSP re-release makes him a possible love interest for the female protagonist.
187	*** Shinjiro Aragaki, of all people, also turns out to have a bit of this going on thanks to a hidden love of animals and cooking shows, though he's more a gruffly SugarAndIcePersonality than outright dorky. Again, it's played up in the PSP version thanks to his Social Link in the female main character's route.
188	*** Theodore, Igor's male assistant in the PSP version (if you play as the female protagonist) is smooth and calm in the Velvet Room, but if you take him out to explore the human world, he quickly shows himself to be this, with his FishOutOfWater tendencies and his childlike wonder and uncertainty about the ways of the human world (to say nothing of him being SarcasmBlind).
189	** ''VideoGame/Persona4'':
190	*** This is the common reaction to Naoto Shirogane despite (or because of) the fact that she is a girl. Normally speaks in a very mature and intellectual fashion, but can start gushing over anything that relates to her interests in detective novels, solving mysteries, action figures and tokusatsu shows; her own Dungeon in the TV World is noted as looking like something out of a sentai or tokusatsu series, her Shadow appears as a sentai-ish cyborg, and even her Personas have that sort of motif. She also gets very easily flustered in social situations, and really gets shy if the player takes her romance path.
191	*** Though she normally comes off as a straight-up martial arts loving BigEater {{tomboy}}, Chie Satonaka is pretty adorkable as well as you pursue her Social Link and [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak discover her more feminine traits]]. She breaks down and starts awkwardly crying in the middle of Junes after Yosuke and the protagonist's second expedition to the TV World, she freaks out when Nanako chirps that there's a grasshopper on Chie's back, and she gets very shy and prone to blabbering during her romance scenes.
192	*** Just as much as Marie's {{amnesia\|c hero}} is PlayedForDrama, the times it's PlayedForLaughs makes her come across as really endearing, especially when she suffers from [[FishOutOfWater culture shock]] and can't pronounce words like "salad dressing" and "electric outlets" right.
193	** ''VideoGame/Persona5'':
194	*** As a recovering shut-in, Futaba is very [[NoSocialSkills socially awkward]] and a bit of a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} to the point where it became endearing. She is also a huge fan of video games, and makes a bunch of references to them. She gets especially adorable should the player romance her, as once Joker confesses his love to her, she gets incredibly flustered around him, to the point that she completely shuts down for a good eight to nine text boxes.
195	*** Haru's introduction as a [[UnknownRival "rival thief"]] to the Phantom Thieves is full of it. She actually gets stage fright during her first encounter with them because she hadn't yet thought of a code name for herself and couldn't remember the script she'd prepared with Morgana beforehand.
196	*** Like Naoto, Makoto has a pretty serious personality, but she shows shades of this as well. During the Madarame arc (as well as the start of the Kaneshiro arc), she started following Joker around with a manga magazine that she obviously isn't reading. She is also shown to be scared of some "spooky" things as when the Phantom Thieves broke into the Sakura house, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVADRJknY58 this happens]]. Even in battle, one of her three possible quotes at the end of her All-Out-Attack is her shouting "FIST OF JUSTICE!" in a hilariously hammy manner.
197	*** Ryuji tends to get overexcited when talking about upcoming plans for the Phantom Thieves. Ann plays the StraightMan during these moments and shuts him up before he starts yelling about being wanted criminals in public.
198	%%* ''VideoGame/PhantasyStarIV'': Hahn Mahlay.
199	%%* Lucas from ''VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl'' has shades of this, as a {{NPC}}.
200	%%** ''VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite'' brings us Cilan, and if you're not put off by his bizarre personality, N.
201	%%** Bianca as well.
202	%%** And Shauntal of the Elite Four, mostly because of her ShrinkingViolet tendencies, NerdGlasses, and polite demeanor.
203	* ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'': Wheatley. He's a [[CloudCuckooLander scatterbrained]], [[MotorMouth talkative]], friendly little personality core with a British accent (voiced by Creator/StephenMerchant!) who fails at hacking and is a huge CowardlyLion. [[spoiler:Of course, it all goes to hell later, but he's still [[{{Adorkable}} Adorkably]] [[AffablyEvil Evil]].]]
204	* ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo'':
205	** Schezo has two sides to him: one where he attempts to keep a cool head in spite of his poor vocabulary, and the other that ''adores'' cute things and doesn't even try to hide it, and is easily flustered when (he thinks) someone's interested in him romantically. His love of cute things makes him look like a big weirdo to his acquaintances, but his fans find that side of him incredibly endearing.
206	** Dark Prince, the lord of the Puyo Underworld acts no better than a lovestruck schoolgirl. To everyone around him, it makes him come off as an immature {{Manchild}}. To the players? It comes of as entertaining.
207	* ''VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption2'': Arthur Morgan has a childlike sense of wonder that comes through from time to time, like when he remote controls a toy boat, cheers at a magic show, or gets straight up giddy whenever he does good at poker. It's impossible not to smile at him.
208	* A ''lot'' of Leon S. Kennedy's appeal in the ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil'' franchise is thanks to him being such a lovable dork and such a complete badass at the exact same time, though it [[DependingOnTheWriter varies from game to game]]. He's at his absolute adorkablest in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4'' with his [[LampShading deadpan lampshading]] and his cheesy [[OneLiner One-Liners]].
209	--> '''Salazar:''' I've sent my right hand to dispose of you.
210	--> '''Leon:''' Your right hand comes off?
211	* ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' gives us Sherry Birkin who, despite being a rather badass government agent in the same agency as Leon above, still manages to act like an adorkable high school nerd (Maybe it's hiring policy or something). It ''really'' shows when she's put with the sarcastic and snide {{Foil}} that is Jake Muller, such as when escaping an avalanche on snowmobiles:
212	--> '''Jake:''' God must ''really'' hate us today!
213	--> '''Sherry:''' Just keep going! We'll make it! Anyway, uh, I don't hate you!
214	--> '''Jake:''' [[SarcasmMode Aw great! That helps!]]
215	* ''Videogame/RWBYAmityArena'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-K4XppVtj94 gives a tutorial to Pyrrha]] where she's absolutely clueless and always asking the crew filming her for directions.
216	* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'':
217	** Tails is an adorable two-tailed fox who is often a bit shy and timid, but also incredibly passionate and geeky about his interests.
218	** Silver's naivety and insecurities make him surprisingly adorable despite his sometimes violent personality.
219	* ''Franchise/SpyroTheDragon'':
220	** The title character, in both original and Legend series incarnations. The original Spyro was [[MouthyKid headstrong and arrogant]]; despite being the [[KidAppealCharacter youngest and littlest]] dragon in the Dragon Realms, which made him a lovable KidHero. The [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro Legend series]] Spyro became even more adorkable from being voiced by Creator/ElijahWood. He was a sweet, intelligent dragon who was always willing to help anyone.[[spoiler: And this is despite learning about where he truly came from and who he truly is -- TheChosenOne. He is suddenly told that he is a rare purple dragon and it is his destiny to save the entire world! On such short notice as well, considering he just learned he was [[LastOfHisKind one of the only dragons left]] and was actually [[HappilyAdopted adopted by dragonflies!]] ]]
221	** Bianca the bunny, who starts out as the BigBad's #2 lackey. Watching her try to act threatening in spite of her obviously meek, clumsy nature is more cute and funny than anything else. Naturally, this gets her [[MinionWithAnFInEvil a failing grade in Evil]], but makes it that much easier for her to pull a HeelFaceTurn when she realizes just ''how'' bad her boss actually is.
222	* ''VideoGame/SunsetOverdrive'' gives us Wendy, a Latina looking {{LARP}} player into acting as TheBard, dressing as a pirate captain, into rock and roll, and voiced by Creator/LauraBailey.
223	* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'': Luigi becomes more Adorkable every game. He's clumsier than his better-renowned brother, sometimes speaks with a stutter, and often made a ButtMonkey, but he does get his time to shine both with the rest of the cast and among the fanbase.
224	** ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor''. Koops, the poor awkward little Koopa who lost his confidence after [[ItMakesSenseInContext his dad got eaten by a dragon]]. Despite his quirks--nay, ''because'' of them--he's got quite a large crowd of fan girls.
225	* Super Sonico from her eponymous franchise. Despite being a model, she's socially awkward and introverted. [[GamerChick She's also an avid gamer]], and one of the ''VisualNovel/SoniComi'' endings shows her playing a game while using various geeky game terms. In addition, ''[=SoniComi=]'' and her official videos on [=YouTube=] show that she greatly struggles with some physical exercises, even [[EpicFail getting exhausted after doing six or less consecutive pushups.]]
226	* ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'':
227	** ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'':
228	*** Lloyd has won many a fangirl for his innocent, boyish charm.
229	*** Colette. She's clumsy at times, but extremely sweet-natured and caring.
230	** ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'':
231	*** Luke, [[spoiler: once he cuts his hair]], gets rather adorkable with his sudden dependency on others and embarrassed social moments.
232	** ''VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia'':
233	*** Yuri Lowell, while not a shining example of this due to the serious nature of the story and his role in it most of the time, has his moments in several skits and scenes, especially when interacting with fellow party members Karol and Estelle.
234	*** Karol who gets excited about guilds and his heroes and has a PrecociousCrush on Nan.
235	*** Estelle, geeking out over guilds, books and ancient history.
236	** If you're patient, lucky and adventurous in ''VideoGame/TalesOfGraces,'' you can catch [[TheStoic Hubert]] becoming this, usually either because of [[UptightLovesWild Pascal]]... or the Sunscreen Rangers:
237	-->'''Hubert:''' Tonight we feast on dead seafood! Pow Pow!
238	%%*** Genis screams this trope in his interactions with [[SugarAndIcePersonality Presea]].
239	%%*** Guy Cecil, occasionally. ''Especially'' when he nerds out over fon machines.
240	%%** ''VideoGame/TalesOfInnocence'': Luca Milda.
241	* Hikami Itaru from ''VisualNovel/TokimekiMemorialGirlsSide 2'', an intelligent, hard-working, glasses-wearing stickler for the rules who is quite a bit awkward when it comes to girls. If there was ever any doubt, he earns this role in an early CG when the protagonist comes across him wearing a ''very'' dorky looking helmet. When she asks, he simply says that it's part of the school rules to wear them and seems confused by the very question.
242	* ''VideoGame/TombRaider2013'': Lara Croft. [[BreakTheCutie Despite all the hell she's put through]], she continues to display a giddy enthusiasm for the various artifacts and historical sites she discovers over the course of the game.
243	* ''VideoGame/UnderNightInBirth'': Vatista, the resident [[EmotionlessGirl emotionless]] [[RidiculouslyHumanRobot robot girl.]] Between her [[NoSocialSkills terrible social skills]], inability to understand the implications of standing in the same spot for an entire month, [[BadLiar ineptitude at lying]], and overall lack of common sense, she's quite handily one of the quirkiest members of the cast. To put the icing on the Adorkable cake, she starts her story completely naked, only putting on clothes per [[TheHero Hyde's]] request... and strips again later, [[InnocentFanserviceGirl believing only he has a problem with it.]]
244	* ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'':
245	** The best representation would be Alphys, Asgore's head scientist. She's incredibly awkward and shy, and is very uncomfortable speaking about anything. She's also extremely friendly once she comes out of her shell.
246	** Papyrus, [[NoIndoorVoice VERY LOUD]] SmallNameBigEgo Royal Guard hopeful. Because, despite those, he's genuinely nice, friendly, and naive. He's the only character who is incapable of killing you (not from lack of strength, but he's too nice). He also sleeps in a racecar bed, owns a bunch of action figures, believes in Santa, loves cooking spaghetti, and if you befriend him he will do everything he can to get you and Undyne to be friends.
247	** [[spoiler:King Asgore Dreemurr]], who may look scary and intimidating at first, but is, in Papyrus' words, a "big fuzzy pushover". He loves having tea, gardening flowers, and is a notorious GiverOfLameNames.
248	** Undyne is mostly badass, but she does have shades of adorkableness, as she genuinely believes anime is real human history.
249	* The protagonist of ''VideoGame/{{Unpacking}}'' is so fond of her stuffed animals that they not only go with her from house to house but she adds to her collection throughout the years. She's also an avid gamer, and while she does upgrade her consoles from a Gamecube to a Wii and a Gameboy to a DS, she keeps all of her old games. She's also a fan of ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''.
250	* ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'': Omid. He's worried about his cat during a zombie apocalypse and he's probably the most cheerful character in the game.
251	* ''VideoGame/WarioWare'' has Penny, the eccentric, excitable granddaughter of Dr Crygor.
252	* ''VideoGame/{{Wolfenstein}}'': Probst Wyatt III. He starts out as a GoshDangItToHeck individual and by New Colossus, he began to awkwardly talk JiveTurkey and behaves like a {{Cloudcuckoolander}}, especially after taking what seems to be acid, though that does not stop him from being an effective ally.
253	* Wonder-Yellow from ''VideoGame/TheWonderful101'', despite being a [[HuskyRusskie muscular Russian]] [[FourStarBadass war veteran]] with a [[CarryABigStick massive hammer,]] is incredibly shy, and will often gain [[LuminescentBlush blush stickers]] on his cheeks and begin stammering when he gets nervous. He's also implied to be a FriendToAllChildren.
254	* From ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'' comes three examples:
255	** Neku Sakuraba, a DefrostingIceQueen with a penchant for [[NoSocialSkills social awkwardness]] and massive fanboyism when it comes to his favorite artist, CAT. In [[BizarroUniverse Another Day]], this gets expanded on even more, with him being a massive fanboy of Tin Pin who collects his favorite Tin Pin Weekly issues in a acid-proof scrapbook who also purposely styles his ShonenHair after manga, of all things. This even gets lampshaded by the other characters, who call him a massive geek after learning this.
256	** Shiki Misaki, a upbeat, energetic, ditzy NiceGirl with a love for sewing and [[TheFashionista fashion.]] [[spoiler: This is compounded even more with her true appearance, with her being a ShrinkingViolet.]]
257	** Daisukenojo "Beat" Bito, a IdiotHero skater with a penchant for comical overreactions, {{Malaproper}} word play, and being a genuine softie underneath his tough guy act, especially when it comes to his friends and [[spoiler: [[BigBrotherInstinct sister, Rhyme.]]]]
258	%%* From ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'', [[TheHero Shulk]] fits the bill rather well.

Context Adorkable / VideoGames
