I'm going to incorporate Arbok's list into mine where I'm missing info. If other people help me fill in the gaps I'll update some more.

I can't see whatever images there are (I'm at work where certain things are blocked) but there must be a shift in the numbers in Arbok's list. I was like "HTF could anyone confuse Ryu Hayabusa and Samus Aran?" when I saw that some of the items in Arbok's list look like they've been shifted by one.
I bet I'd probably recognize a bunch of characters and help out if a) I could see the image(s). b) I care enough to come back to this topic ever again.

I already fixed the shift; I missed the River City Ransom guy. BARF!

I counted 57, Vudu 56... so we probably messed up somewhere (seems Vudu missed the Punchout Trainer, which is likely because he flashes on really quickly compared to the others, I wouldn't be surprised if my list was messed up too though)

or... nevermind...
Anyway, if anyone wants to be awesome they can take screen captures of each one and post them for easier identification...

Japanese or North American? It would be Riki-Kunio or Alex/Ryan, then.

I recognize most of them (it surprised me, too), but I don't have time to write them all down right now, and that sucks because I want to, but I have to go open presents instead. You've made me hate opening presents. I hate you.
I'll just quickly point out that after Peach, that's Kabuki Quantum Fighter, then the guy from the first Dragon Warrior (Quest, whatever), and I think #9 is Strider.

Just another correction, 28 is actually "Disney Adventures", not "Disney Land Adventures"...seems my memory failed me again (god I wish they would put the Capcom Disney games on the VC...).
Also, 33 is Jackie Chan from Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu as you suspected vudu, if there was still any doubt.

I'm still missing these characters.
If anyone sees any mistakes in the characters already listed, please let me know.
EDIT: I just realized 34 is Rygar.

Isn't 45 from Joust? And I think SUPER's right about 51. I think it's the main character from Crystalis.

Right for Crystalis:
Crystalis
For Joust, though, I'm not so sure. However, they do look very similar:
Joust

Post by: BlackNMild2k1 on December 18, 2006, 01:24:59 PM
45 is definately Joust.
I've played 23, 27, 36 & 47 before but can't remember what the names of the games are.
I'm of no help here.....

26 looks like some gundam
32 is from definitely from space harrier!
26 may also be from abadox, but i havnt confirmed this yet.
number 43 is Astyanax from Astyanax
31 is probably from legendary wings
23 is from blaster master
34 is Rygar from Rygar

23 - guy from Blaster Master (double check this one) 34 - Clash at Demonhead guy? (wild guess) 43 - Astyanax (dead certain, that game rulez) 29 - Mike from Startropics (just remembered that one) 45 - Joust 31 - Legendary Wings (Capcom top-down shooter, also has side-scrolling areas) 47 - Battle of Olympus (certain!) 51 - confirmed as Crystalis, right?

Certainly looks like Jason from Blaster Master

26 is the M-308 Gunner from Metal Storm. Too bad I missed all the fun.
Super Joe is not the name of the main character in Bionic Commando, by the way.
27 is Soaring Eagle, the star of Whomp'Em. You can thank my strong google-fu for that one.
Prince of Persia is missing from your list, vudu, even though stevey got it a while ago.
That just leaves 36, which looks familiar to me, but I don't think I've played the game.

27 is from an Indian Megaman style game that I actually owned... If I could see that cart I could tell you the name right off... The game was amusing.
Darn it you had it on page one... Oh I also owned Quantum Warrior and thats one of those games that much like Tron is an interesting concept to say the least.

hahaha, thats the name, all I could think of was that game were you drove a littel tank and then fought a giant frog. For some reason Blaster Master didn't pop ino my head.
But now were only missing 3 (26, 27 & 36) and like I said before, I know that I know what 27 is, but for some reason I can't think of a name. I remember having fun with that game though.
