to all the classic Sonic fanboys who are whinning about Sonic's design and then say that "Mario never changed his design!" take a look at 2:46... yeah Mario NEVER changed his design, did he?

[HamonLord]

mario, pac-man, and donkey kong will always be the three most iconic and eternal faces in all of video gaming and nothing should ever ever ever change that a bit.

thumbs up if you're a retro or veteran gamer or someone who respects classic gaming and agree!

Shigeru Miyamoto originally came up with what became Donkey Kong because he couldn't use Popeye in the game, that due to what they say was "extended contract negotiations." But once DK became popular worldwide, Nintendo finally was given the green light to make a Popeye arcade game, and released it in 1982 along with Donkey Kong, Jr., the jungle-themed sequel to DK, which puts you in charge as Jr. in the role of saving his father (DK) from the man (Mario) who wanted Pauline back.

therefore the avatar was actually a character who had abilities which were designed in tandem with stages that challenged them with mathematical precision in how it wanted one to use the abilities whose nature helped define the stages. So it wasn't a cursor or a moving image, but a man being contextualised by his environment. Side-view jumping games thus allowed characters and story, for the first time in games, unless you count Pacman as a story, or maybe Missile Command's apocalyptic gameover!
