Mario MarioLet's be honest, with out Mario most of us wouldn't be Nintendo fans anyway. Mario is what got me into the platforming genera & Mario is what keeps me going back to it. I love Galaxy, Super Mario Sunshine, & the majority of the Paper Mario series, Mario & Luigi RPG titles, & most any platform title this guy is in. He may not have much personality but that's because Nintendo wants you to imagine that you the player are Mario & is why he's vapid of any personality. He's an archetype for us to place ourselves into & thus why he's so vapid character wise. The Mario platforming series is great, Mario is vapid & has no character but I love most games with him in it thus why he's higher up on this list.

LinkHey, I love Link just as much as any LOZ fan/gamer. But tbh he too is an archetype like Mario is. He's there to place ourselves in his shoes & is thus as vapid as Mario is. He has no personality & is told what to do via the helper characters. Anything you come up with for him is what you feel while you play during the game. Link is just a shell for you to place your feelings & experiences into is how I feel. But he's also been portrayed terribly by a vapid know it all guy who says; "Excuse me PRINCESS." At the drop of the hat too; thus making him a bit more annoying to see as the potential great warrior that he turns out to be.

Luigi MarioYea, I know some aren't much of a fan of Luigi's but I've been a Luigi girl for a long time. :3 He has his own personality & he's just funny while humming along to the background music during Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon & it would make me laugh: a lot. Luigi is the man: quite literally. The only reason he isn't higher is because he's not seen in as many games by himself as his older brother is & maybe in the future that'll start to change. ;3
- & BIG drumroll:
My number one favorite top franchise Nintendo character is:

Lyn (Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones [GBA/3DS DLC character for Fire Emblem: Awakening)
Lyn from Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones is my number one top favorite character ever. If it wasn't for her interactions with my character in the GBA game, or her over arching story.. I would have NEVER gotten into the Fire Emblem series otherwise. Lyn basically comes from nothing & rises up to become one of the greatest Lords(Ladies? whatever) that I've had the honor of being able to see rise to power through their story line. I mean Hector & Eliwood are great Lords & characters. But they're raised as royalty so had I started off with them I don't think I would have liked the game as much. But starting out with Lyn; the story & her character in general just hooked me to the game & I loved it long afterwards. I mean heck she's even available as DLC for Fire Emblem Awakening & if that doesn't say how awesome she is just by itself then maybe you need to educate yourself on just how awesome the GBA titles
really are. ;3
Annnnnnnnnnnd. that's it. My whole list is done. Took me a while to dicker over the top contenders but I'm happy with who they are. Well; for me at least. XD
