Bonk.

Massive cranium, tiny fur dress, that stupid smile. We don't need images. Seriously, right after this sentence, close your eyes and think, Bonk.

You saw him didn't you?

What are some other iconic character sprites?

Edit:

Evidently we do need images.

 

[Like the hat?]

Mario and PAC man

 

[Phire Phox]

Mario from SMB.

Sonic

[Zoramon089]

 

[rekameohs]

Mario and Pac Man are easily the most recognizable.

Here's another well known one.

 

[sixteen-bit]

 

[MisterHero]

entering the boss room EVERY TIME

 

[revolverjgw]

 

[pants]

Also Morrigan, :teehee

 

[Salsa]

[Zoramon089]

CUSTER...why do I know this

*don't know why I said Custard

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

Beautiful. Boss time!

entering the boss room EVERY TIME

:high five:

 

[Rhomega Beta]

CUSTARD...why do I know this

Not custard, Custer. As in Custer's Revenge.

 

[ShaneB]

Good Ol Donkey Kong fits in here.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

 

[pants]

This badass motherfucker right here

 

[Platy]

Also Morrigan, :teehee

The topic is about most recognizable character by the public, not by capcom staff =P

 

[heyf00L]

I think the RPG fans don't understand "most recognizable". At least, I think those sprites are from RPGs, I don't know what they are.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Elena from SF3 is pretty awesome too.

 

[DJIzana]

 

[Clockwork5]

.

 

[weekend_warrior]

.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

Not the original, but it counts.

 

[Order]

What the fuck i just had a flashback

Silence heathen.

Spoiler

that sprite been reused so many times there can't be many in gaming unfamiliar with it :lol

 

[Bronetta]

SF2 Ryu is classic but the Alpha sprite has been used in more games.

 

[Labrys]

Not custard, Custer. As in Custer's Revenge.

Uh, well, 'custard' is involved. Eheheh...

...

Ahem. To contribute, though, here:

EDIT: ^ Dang it, beaten while looking for a sprite.

 

[loganclaws]

 

[Professor Renegade]

 

[GamerSoul]

Well, maybe not one of the most recognized..but still cool.

Rhydon Statues.

 

[damaph]

I'm going to go with pacman.

 

[Night_Trekker]

The NES Castlevania sprites are about as iconic as it gets for me.

And Mario, of course.

EDIT: ^ It's hard to argue with that one, yeah.

 

[Gen X]

HAHAHA nsfw? :lol

 

[Darknight]

Mai from SNK?

 

[Savitar]

Everyone's favorite bounty hunter.

 

[GoofsterStud]

Morrigan because the sprite never changed.

 

[IHaveCandy]

I was hoping this would be a "Who's that Pokemon" for sprites.

 

[Kokonoe]

 

[djplaeskool]

</3

 

[kittens]

Without validating or invalidating your suggestion, I just wanna point out that this is about a character which was commiting genocide on indigenous peoples, and it's from a game in which you rape indigenous women. I think it's important to acknowledge that whenever this game is brought up.

 

[Ryuhza]

Awww yeeeeh

 

[Gattuso]

dig dug

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

I was hoping this would be a "Who's that Pokemon" for sprites.

I thought about that, but I'm on my phone so, uhhhh, yeah...

 

[Skilletor]

Not the original, but it counts.

Kill it with fire.

That is an abomination.

 

[Byronic Hero]

Everyone loves Phoenix. Except Capcom of America, that is.

 

[AuthenticM]

The correct answer is Pac-Man.

 

[Bronetta]

The correct answer is Pac-Man.

Good thing the topic title says sprites and not sprite, there's room for more than one answer.

Here's another one for you old timers
