Notably, there is something of a duality regarding these enemies' natures in their games of origin. They're very frequently TheGoomba, very weak and very common, and gain their popularity through a dual effect of being a very commonly seen and interacted-with part of the game while also weak enough that players don't see them as serious villains. Most of the exceptions are instead powerful {{Elite Mook}}s, much rarer and more dangerous, and made distinctive through a combination of rarity value, elaborate designs, unique and attention-grabbing abilities and/or memorably challenging fights.

* ''Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles'' has two of them, the Foot Soldiers and Mousers. In the [[ComicBook/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesMirage Mirage comics]], the Foot Clan's signature grunt ninjas were semi-recurring foes for the Turtles that went on to achieve greater prominence in just about every other continuity. Similarly, the Mousers initially appeared in a single issue of the comics, and their memorable mini-killer robot design made them popular enough to be their creator Baxter Stockman's go-to MechaMook for every series he did an appearance for afterwards.
