Here's the first video I found.

Of note, Rosalina is overshadowed by Frozen. Link is a girl. Sonic > Mario. Kirby and DK are well known. Samus is nothing. Duck Hunt is surprisingly big. Wii Fit Trainer > Little Mac and everyone from Fire Emblem. R.O.B. joins Rosalina in the Disney club. Not enough time was spent on the Pokemon to draw any conclusions though.

Oh and watch it in 720p60 (60 fps) if you can, video becomes much smoother.

[up][up]I kinda loled at those.

So people can recognize who Link is, but they call him Zelda...

Why do many people call Link "Zelda", considering that Zelda is one of Nintendo's biggest franchises?

Protagonist Title being a thing + Zelda being an uncommon name.

Rosalina is overshadowed by Frozen

No surprise there. Hard to beat one of the best selling movies ever, and a very recent one at that.

Not to mention Rosalina and Elsa look quite similar.

I've occasionally wandered if Nintendo should promote Rosalina more to capitalize on Elsa'a popularity. They're similar enough visually, which is enough for some people, and since Rosalina is older and has some popularity it would be hard to accuse her of being a rip-off.

Megs isn't as big as his cohorts. Which is to be expected really, since Mario, Sonic, and Pac-Man all helped define their platforms, something Mega Man never had a chance to do.

[up][up]No kidding! It's a ridiculous longshot, but it almost makes one wonder if Rosalina inspired Elsa's design a bit.

Going on a related tangent here, I wonder when will be the day Nintendo and Disney do something together beyond a single character. They both aim for the whole family with their properties, and the Mario and Mickey Mouse crew are widely known and have a lot of parallels.

Then again, massive legal fustercluck.

I'd kill to get a glimpse at the alternate universe where Kingdom Hearts was a team-up with Disney and Nintendo instead of Disney and Square.

Maybe Disney could give Nintendo tips on how to make a theme park?tongue

For some reason, I'm thinking of remaking the first Back To The Future movie using Nintendo characters...and my casting choice for Marty Mc Fly is Lucina by virtue of being the only Nintendo character to travel through time (to my knowledge).

[up][up]Zelda-style slingshot shooting gallery. Mushroom Kingdom playground. Metroid dark-ride with huge animatronic Ridley. Pokémon...I mean, anything Pokémon, really.

God I could go on for days. I want to just make a map of my own actual Nintendo Land with detailed attractions that are probably completely econonomically infeasible but hey Nintendo has infinite money so what the heck right.

[up]Nope. Not the only one. It would be quicker to name all the Ninty characters that haven't travelled through time.

Let me rephrase myself:

Lucina is the only Nintendo character to time travel to the past and meet her parents before she was born/an infant. Similar to Marty in BTTF Part I.

Plus, there's a part of me that wants to see Lucina jamming on guitar and playing "Johnny B. Goode"....don't ask. This is what happens when I listen to BTTF music and be on the YMMV page for Awakening.

Wait, Doctor Mc Fly? You mean Doc Brown? Or was one of Marty's parents also a Doctor?

Mario could be Biff...or Jennifer.

Mario seems way too nice to be Biff, IMO. I think Wario would fit that roll better.

Robin would make a fitting Jennifer, since they (well okay, this time I kind of have to default to "he") can actually marry Lucina in Awakening.

Duck Hunt dog could be Einstein.

Wouldn't be surprised if it happened at some point really.

IIRC, it did have a brief tie-in with a pre-existing theme park.

Once.

In Japan.
