Favorite long-time video game character?

[Archae]

A video game character that's been around for a few years or more.

This guy appeared back in 1998.



And is still going strong.

2. When did that game first appear?

n/t

[TimeChaser]

3. Well,

the first one came out in Japan in 1987 and the US in 1990. XII is the next one, which should be out sometime this year. But my favorites (VI to VIII) came out between 94-99.
