Video Game Characters you would like to see return to the Spotlight

[Bacon McShig]

Master Higgins, damn it. We need a new Adventure Island....

Oooh, I totally agree.

I want Mega Man 9, dammit. Another Gargoyle's Quest/Demon's Crest would be quite spiffy, too.

[Taito]

Linn Kurosawa in a Devil May Cry-like action title . . .

[Despair]

That would kick ass

Maybe AVP with DMC style

Ackman? Hmm that doesn't ring a bell

Go Go Ackman is a series of games based on a somewhat obscure (but still hilarious) Akira Toriyama manga. Baiscally, Ackman is a kid, roughly 10 years in age (in demon years) with a revolver and and a sword who kills people and puts their souls in a jar so he can sell them to Satan. The games have you fighting against the armies of heaven, killing little angels, and using their souls to buy needed items. The games are pretty blatantly Satanic, so it was obviously never localized. The series had 3 games on SNES, which were all very good action platformers, which had a nice story and branching paths (Go Go Ackman 3 in particular was excellent). There was also one on gameboy which was something of a Pacman variant, and pretty lame.

Oh, fuck yeah! A DMC-style AvP sequel would totally rock.

As for who I'd like back in the spotlight:

Alucard
Megaman (the original, not X or Battle Network or Zero...)
Kyle muthafuckin' Blackthorne
Cammy (green SSF2T outfit)
Ratchet (Thousand Arms- she amused me so much)
Ayame (Tenchu 1 version. It looks like I get my wish with T3)

I'd like to see the Zillion (SMS) Characters make a comeback. I sure wouldn't mind a real , make that good new Blaster Master game.

[Prince Planet]

Despair called it -- Chakan. That one should be a no-brainer.

but satanic in a cute way. I'd like to see this cat make a return as well.

The Zombies At My Neighbors kids need to spring into action once more along with a new Bucky O'Hare adventure. The Bucky arcade game kicked ass!

[Rich]

Odd-Job. (Goldeneye, the one everyone hated because he was impossibly to kill [very short] so you yelled at whoever was Odd-Job)
