Underrated Gaming Mascots

[Cu1tur3D_Gam3R]

A thread of gaming mascots that didn't get enough love during their time out in the gaming world. And do you think they should a comeback in any way, shape or form.

I'll start things off with one of Namco's most underrated poster girls, Hitomi Yoshino from, most notably, MotoGP 2 & 3.

Is he still around or not, I'm not sure.
Context: The "new" mascot of Sega.

Sony mascots never get the love they deserve imo.

 

[solidbatman]

bring back this mascot pls

 

[Evaccaneer Doom]

Like 98% of them because there are a lot that never took off. Bubsy is practically a Tier 2 mascot on the iceberg, that’s how forgotten we’re talking

One of the most underrated mascots in a game:

The more you look at it the more you can't stop looking :O

I think there was going to be a new show, but I haven't heard of it since.

Given how Shiro wasn't in the marketing for nearly as long as Sanshiro, that was inevitable

I think it's Dead or Alive

Last time i checked they was three years, let's hope it wasn't crowdfunded

I'm just happy that Phil Spencer allowed this game to get a remaster on Xbox One. According to him, his daughter loved the game when she was young so he has a soft spot for it.

That is Kasumi from Dead or Alive.

Earthworm Jim really can’t catch a break. Dormant for ages and the creator being…well, let’s just say there’s a grocery list of all the types of people he seems to have beef with

 

[Graw]

He's adorable and hilarious and Microsoft did him dirty with their 'efforts'.

 

[Mini_Man.XW]

 

[Doc X]

Aero the Acro-Bat (Sunsoft's mascot), and Titus the Fox (Titus Interactive's mascot).

 

[shadowcat]

Bomberman!

 

[Amakuchi]

Always had a soft spot for Blinx.

 

[Bakuma1997]

The best Possum in gaming story
