Ask a long-time Nintendo developer a question about Luigi’s Mansion 3 on the Switch and the next thing you know, you’re getting a snippet of insight about the creation of 1991 Super Nintendo classic The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past. Nintendo’s top people have been honing their craft for a long time and their expertise runs deep.
There is something endearing about an innocently weak and somewhat goofy hero. Like Luigi, I think that Abe from Oddworld fits this persona and he is one of the greatest characters because he strength isn't blind bravery. These guys swallow their fear and just get to it. But if they get a little ahead they feel really proud and I'd like to see more characters like this.
