Mario is the goat protagonists, and is the main character in my favorite game series. This is my favorite version of Mario, but also my favorite vesion of Bowser, who I also consider the best Villian in gaming. Rozalina is fantastic, and I also love the Luma in Mario's hat.

Specifically this Link

DK, Diddy, Dixie, and Cranky are fantastic. Just chose DKCTF because it had all of them.

Kaptain K. Rool, I like him more in this than the OG DKC.

Marcus Fenix is such a great protagonist, but his team of Dom, Baird, and Cole are maybe my favorite bunch of teamates in any game.

My favorite version of Luigi, but also Professor E. Gadd is a great edition.

Ryuji and Joker

Jack Cooper and BT are one of the best duos I've ever had the pleasure of playing.

Uflric, General Tullius, Alduin, Parthernax, Cicero, Erik The Slayer, Fanedal, Ralof, Jarl Balgruuf, Serana, Mirak, Hermaeus Mora, Sheogorath, and probably more I'm forgetting.

Sonic is up there with Mario and Link, as one of the best protagonists. Tails in this game is my favorite version of him. My favorite version of Amy and Bigs aswell. Also really liked E-102 Gamma and the family of Birds he saves.

My favorite Knuckles.

My favorite verison of Shadow and Rouge, as well as Eggman.
