While the term douchebag has become an umbrella term for a generally irritating or obnoxious male, most would agree that the term embodies an insensitive individual with an over-inflated egotistical and selfish attitude.
Most experts agree the term itself only came into popular use in the mid-2000s. However, douchebags have been in our videogames since near the beginning of the medium’s creation; indeed, the Hammer Bros in the original Super Mario Bros. were kind of douchey.
We’ve all had a run in with douchebags at one time or another in both real life and gaming, and to be honest, they’re terrible people. To vent our frustration, we’ve listed our least favorite videogame douchebags below.

I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive.

Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.
