lol, why did I have the feeling Ridley would be in here

Awesome. Can't wait to hear this discussed in TalkRadar

Wiki-Paraz, yet another great top 7. Nintendo charcters should be barred, because Nintendo refuses to use another boss for any of its games

Ganon's death in WW was jaw droppingly awesome. I couldn't believe Nintendo did that when I first saw it.

Oh Dracula, will the shenanigans ever end!

let's see: getting shot in the face with silver arrows, silver arrows again, getting stabbed IN THE FACE, stabbed in the brain and TURNED TO STONE, and stabbed in the heart all BY THE SAME SWORD. I've always wondered how Ganon survived.

I was told to post if I listened to the podcast or else Brett Elston would personally kill me. So to save him and David Caruso the trouble, i figured i'd make a profile and post here. Also great top 7 this week guys :)

I've been saying for a while that Dracula's facial hair circa 90's CV games onward has been impeccable. Goatee, for the win.

It's not that Dracula doesn't learn, per say, it's that he adheres to the "Villain" code. You know, you let them 'kill' you but only a little bit; after all, everyone needs a paycheck next week too. :P

Great top 7! I was saddened not to see Bowser on here, but I completely understand; he has started to slide down the muddy slope of fail lately. In a paralel universe, the slope he slides down on is the same hill he climbs up, becoming the mountian of lame!

There should have been a bonus for Castlevania, with Death, Medusa, the Creature, etc. And Ridley and Kraid always returning always struck me as weird. Nintendo's not really known for adding new ideas and characters once they've created the first classic, though.

Putting Bowser in would have been too easy.
Great top 7

I agree Great top 7! Man with that picture and the description you talked about with Mario, Princess and Bowser I couldn't not think of a Ménage à trois there lol. Hey Bowser, wanna come over and play twister?!

Kane is the Messiah! haha

As for Dracula, has anyone seen the animated movie Batman vs Dracula, totally epic and I hadn't watched a Cartoon Network movie in a long time but that one was worth it. ^^

gannon being the most bad ass of course.

Dracula is a great number 1, too bad that Sigma from the Megaman X series didn´t make it into this list
noobeater  - 7 months 18 days ago 
ganons a great nemesis to have

wesker battle at the end of resi 5 was aweful it just kept going on and on and on and i went from an exciting battle to boring...

I'VE FOUND U!

Lol Ganon. "Yeah, he'll come back from that, too. Bet on it."
LionheartAce  - 7 months 18 days ago 
Sweet, Ridley & Ganon are win.
ClusterShart  - 7 months 18 days ago 
Actually, Mikel, Ganon has died. The only evidence that us Zelda fans have is that at the end of a linked game in the Oracle of Ages/Seasons series, he is being revised. In which game he is killed, though, isn't known.
