I feel like this one is almost an inevitably with everyone who had even thought about picking up a pencil for something other than answering their questions. I mean, hell, they literally encourage drawing the bastard in the intro of this particular entry! Sucks they got rid of it in the Nightmare in Dream Land remake, yet another reason that thing blows asscheeks.

Almost as inevitable as Kirby for anyone growing up during the great Pokemon tsunami of 1998 that leveled every playground and cafeteria. The most common showings were of course Pikachu and Jigglypuff thanks to Smash Bros 64. Voltorb and Magnemite were also common, since even an armless mongoose could sketch those two.

You have no idea how close I was to finalizing this list, before I realized that I was missing Pac-Man. Humiliating and embarrassing if I had never drawn Pac-Man eating my math problems. Thank you Mr. Man for your service!

I was a Sega kid who adored the shit out of Sonic, it goes without saying that I sketched this rat multiple times. Robuttnik in his Flying Buttmobile was a common sight, since you don't have to draw any arms or legs. Did I have an OC? Whose to say? I used Sonic Adventure here, because massive hot take; I prefer the Adventure designs over the Classic ones! GASP!!!

Heh, did you expect anything less? One of my most perfected arts since childhood was sketching perfectly cut gems. I blame this game for my unhealthy obsession of gemstones and shiny rocks.

One of my longest running attempts at a personal comic was a Royal Rumble match involving a ton of Mario characters. Most of them were just Koopa Troopas in stupid gimmicks, one of them was a hockey player for some reason. Let me tell ya, attempting to draw Waluigi taking a german suplex from a Shy Guy is harder than it sounds. [and really fuckin' funny]

Normally I would just include Donkey Kong with Mario in this instance, but I feel it's worth mentioning that for whatever reason Diddy Kong was constantly slammed inside a garbage can. I have no idea why I apparently hated them so much, or maybe it just humored my idiotic mind for some reason? I totally drew Krusha a ton too, something about a buff crocodile in fatigues with a mohawk.

Wanna know how good I was at drawing a dolphin? Really really not-good, or at best I would just draw them really tiny so I wouldn't need to actually draw them well. I recall making a really haphazard flip book animation of them somersaulting out of the water once.

All of the Crash baddies were common sights in my notebooks back then, for some reason N.Tropy showed up a lot and I think it was because I just liked his big dumb hat. Despite his hat though, he paled in comparison to how much Tiny Tiger guest starred in my comics. As a sign of where my childish mindset was at the time, Tiny would often have trouble with flushing his toilet and desire help from everyone nearby.

It sucks that it felt like I was the only kid who knew what Jumping Flash was, the HUD featuring a cartoon Robbit staring at the player pretty much helped me get the sketches of them down pat. Their hoppity nature made them a common sight for the background in my crappy comics.

Yeah....this cad showed up a few times....don't say his name too loudly....

One of the strangest bits I ever did that I can remember is Cut Man and Air Man going around running a shady pizza delivery service. Why it was these two in particular is beyond me. I wanna say Cut Man maybe sliced up the pizzas, and Air Man cooked it somehow? Always knew that guy blew a lot of hot air.

This feels like it barely counts, but I drew the logo a bunch. My version of the "Cool S" I guess.

There was a time where I literally couldn't stop drawing cars with guns on them and shit. It was the coolest thing ever to me, and I don't care how dumb that makes me sound. Gimme a Ford Escort with a mounted flamethrower on the top of it, that shit's more cool than whatever you think is cool.

Spikey the Car showed up a few times on my papers, I can't explain why a game with a title as woefully generic as "Battle Cars" managed to imprint itself on me. Something about cars that are just spikes man.

Here it is, the oddball. The Joker in the deck. The third pea in the pod. The loosest goose ya ever did see. This is the thing that personalizes this list towards myself, because we all have the oddball game that we were randomly attached to thanks to moms buying shit at discount from rental stores cleaning out their inventory. I still love the designs of the robot characters in this game, Zulu is the fuckin' coolest. Look at how cool he is!!!
